Master the Car Sales Process: Willowood Ventures’ Proven Strategy

Want to crush it in car sales? Let’s talk about a process that’s changing the game. At Willowood Ventures, we’ve cracked the code on selling cars. Our method isn’t just theory – it’s battle-tested and proven to work.

Here’s the deal: most dealerships are stuck in the past. They’re using outdated tactics that just don’t cut it anymore. But we’re different. We’ve developed a car sales process that’s straightforward, effective, and gets results.

The 5-Step Car Sales Process That Drives Results

Our process isn’t rocket science, but it works. Here’s the breakdown:

1. Find a friend
2. Fact find & EMI
3. Drive it like you own it
4. Give them something to think about
5. Close

Simple, right? But there’s more to it than meets the eye. Let’s dive in.

1. Find a Friend

First impressions matter. A lot. Here’s how we do it:

• Smile. Seriously, it’s that simple.
• Welcome them to the store like you mean it.
• Invite them inside. Slow things down.
• Offer refreshments. It’s just good manners.

This isn’t about being fake. It’s about being human. People buy from people they like. So be likable.

2. Fact Find & EMI

Knowledge is power. Here’s where you get it:

• Do an early management turnover. Show the customer you’ve got backup.
• Fill out that guest worksheet. If their credit’s not great, get that application early.
• Get them in the CRM. Scan that license.
• Grab those trade-in keys. Don’t give them back.

This step is crucial. You’re gathering intel. Use it wisely.

3. Drive It Like You Own It

Time to show off the goods:

• Let the sales manager pick the ride. They know what makes money.
• Pull that vehicle around. Isolate it.
• Walk around and demo. One minute per thousand dollars. No exceptions.
• Test drive time. Let them fall in love.
• Show off service and parts. Assume the sale.
• Get that paperwork. Title, license, registration.
• Trial close. Ask for the commitment. If they hesitate, it’s T.O. time.

This is where the magic happens. You’re not just showing a car. You’re selling an experience.

4. Give Them Something to Think About

Make it real:

• Hit them with a proposal. Use average rates and terms.
• Be confident. In the product, the deal, and yourself.

This is where you plant the seed. Make it grow.

5. Close

The moment of truth:

• Price objection? Sales manager T.O.
• Finance issues? Finance manager T.O.
• Still not biting? Second manager takes a turn.

Closing isn’t an art. It’s a science. Follow the process.

 

Why This Car Sales Process Works

Our car sales process isn’t just another system. It’s a game-changer. Here’s why:

It’s Customer-Centric

We’re not here to push cars. We’re here to solve problems. Our process is all about understanding what the customer needs and delivering it.

It’s Flexible

Every customer is different. Our process adapts. We’re not robots following a script. We’re professionals reading the room.

It’s Team-Oriented

Notice how we bring in managers early? That’s not an accident. We believe in teamwork. It builds trust with the customer and gives our salespeople backup.

It’s Transparent

No games. No hidden agendas. We’re upfront about everything. Customers appreciate that.

It’s Efficient

Time is money. Our process doesn’t waste either. We move things along at the right pace – not too fast, not too slow.

The Guest Registration Sheet: Your Secret Weapon

Ever wonder how top salespeople seem to know exactly what a customer wants? It’s not mind reading. It’s preparation. That’s where our Guest Registration Sheet comes in.

This isn’t just another form. It’s a goldmine of information. Here’s what it covers:

• Basic contact info (name, address, phone, email)
• How they heard about us (marketing intel)
• What they’re looking to accomplish (their true motivation)
• Trade-in details (if applicable)
• Must-have features (7 passenger, sunroof, leather, etc.)
• Monthly budget for a new car
• Readiness to purchase today
• Desired vehicle specs (new/used, color preferences, body type)
• Credit rating (on a scale of 1-10)

This sheet isn’t just paperwork. It’s a roadmap to a sale. Use it wisely.
