Education and Training is the Key
Motorcycle
sales involves developing a relationship with your customer and
approaching each situation in a unique
manner that adds value to your customer. To make this work, you
must believe
in the product you are selling with all your heart, mind and
soul. Trust, honesty and integrity are essential parts of selling,
without
these qualities you cannot build successful relationships or
add value. In order to be successful at motorcycle
sales, you must give to yourself in the form of education
and training in order to give to your customer. Salesperson,

The True Motorcycle Sales
Masters
The most important trait of the marine
sales master is their ability and willingness to learn.
They open their minds and are constantly discovering and learning.
In fact, an essential part of their being is the ability to learn.
This leads to self-development, which leads to greater value
to prospects or customers. The idea that they have endless amounts
to learn is a basic principle of the sales master.

Motorcycle Salesperson, Inc.
(Advanced Course)
1 Day - 9am - 5pm
Motorcycle Salesperson, Inc. is not a selling skills program, but a well-defined, step-by-step course that teaches salespeople how to "run their business like a business" as compared to running their business by "pot-luck", which basically means, whatever happens, happens.
When salespeople are hired into the dealership, they are given a free phone, a free desk, a free telephone answering service, a free advertising budget, and a million dollars worth of inventory, and told, "now go over to your desk and run it just like it was your own business". And that became the problem. Most salespeople don't know how to run a business. So Motorcycle Salesperson, Inc. was created to help salespeople learn how to develop more business, make more money, and create and sustain a long-lasting career.
Topics in this course include:
- What is Motorcycle Salesperson, Inc.?
- Money: Do You Know How to Make It?
- Your Road to Success
- Evaluating Your Qualities as a Business/Salesperson
- Determining Your Current Financial Situation
- Developing a Business Plan for a Strong Foundation
- Determining Your Strategies for Your Major Companies
- Developing Yourself a Marketing Strategy
- Writing a Daily Plan
- Organizing Yourself for Increased Productivity
- Gaining That Competitive Advantage
- Following-Up to Develop Future Business
- Using a Computer to Develop Your Business
Investment: $1800 per day to include all training materials plus normal expenses (travel, food, rental car). Call Mike Whitty at (800) 453-2787 for available times and dates.
(If you'd like your salespeople to also have the complete training package which includes Manual, Tracking Program and Audio CD-Roms, please add $100 per salesperson (retail price $219).

Negotiating and Closing Techniques Program
1 Day - 9am - 12pm for half your salespeople
1pm - 4pm for the other half of your salespeople
The only way that salespeople and dealerships get paid for their efforts is if a deal is closed. There is no other area in the sales process where you can actually make money or than closing. It's reasonable then to assume that salespeople need to become great negotiators and closers. But the fact is, negotiating and closing is the least studied or practiced area in the entire selling process.
This program does not deal in, what I call, "fluff" techniques. These are techniques that look good on paper, sound funny when you say them, but do not work in real life situations. Customers have become too sophisticated and impatient to stand for these techniques. What this program does is teach salespeople and managers the proven concepts that will create more sales and profits. Some of the topics include:
- How Not to Be Afraid of Negotiating
- Building Trust and Rapport
- Trial-Closing
- What the Customer Knows About Negotiating
- Negotiating Against the Competition
- Understanding How Customers Make Buying Decisions
- Using Silence in Negotiations
- Negotiating and Closing Techniques That Work
- Discounting and Price Issues
- Using Testimonials During Negotiating
- The Successful T.O.
Investment: $1800 per day to include all training materials plus normal expenses (travel, food, rental car). Call Mike Whitty at (800) 453-2787 for available times and dates.

Winning the Internet Sales Game
1 Day Minimum - 9am - 5pm
The internet is a great way for dealerships to not only increase their sales, but also increase their brand image and communicate with their customers. The problem is, most dealerships do not know how to develop internet sales. Make no mistake about it, selling from the internet is a lot different then selling on the showroom floor. There's a whole different philosophy on how you maximize your chances for sales.
Most dealers understand that the internet can change their dealerships, they just have no concept of how. Building a web business is building a brand new business within your business - a business that needs its own life and infrastructure. Making it more difficult, your web business is probably alien to you because the rules and character of the Web are different. For example, imagine for a moment that you were going to start a restaurant in your dealership. It would take new skills and understandings to do it effectively, and you would hire people with different skills than were previously required by your dealership (cook, waitress, etc.). You would use your business knowledge, but it would be just as alien to you as your web business. It's the same with your internet department.
Winning the Internet Sales Game is a program that will help you achieve your e-sales goals. Topics include:
- Looking into the Future
- Benchmarks of the Most Successful Dealerships
- Understanding Your Website
- Understanding Search Engines
- Understanding Internet Technology
- Internet Leads and Lead Providers
- Understanding the Internet Customer
- Developing an Internet Business Plan
- Developing an Internet Staff
- The Power of Email
- Understanding the Selling Process
- Selling on eBay
- Email Lead Management Programs
- Email Direct Marketing Programs
Investment: $1800 per day to include all training materials plus normal expenses (travel, food, rental car). Call Mike Whitty at (800) 453-2787 for available times and dates.

How to Be a Great Manager
1 Day - 9am - 4pm
This is a leadership program for department managers. It's not only important for a manager to understand the technical aspects of the job and performing the routine tasks of the department. A great manager also has to be a great leader. A leader is someone employees look up to, respect, become excited by, and want to support and follow. This program will get managers to understand the following:
- What Employees Look for in a Leader
- Management Responsibilities
- Understanding Your Management Style
- What Makes a Great Manager
- How to Hire the Right People
- Looking for the Right Attributes in Your Employees
- How to Conduct a Successful Sales Meeting
- Training for Increased Productivity
- Ways to Motivate Your Employees and Yourself
- Effectively Praising and Critiquing Your Employees
Investment: $1800 per day to include all training materials plus normal expenses (travel, food, rental car). Call Mike Whitty at (800) 453-2787 for available times and dates.

Phone-Up and Follow-Up Program
1 Day - 9am - 12pm for half your salespeople
1pm - 4pm for the other half of your salespeople
A salesperson's ability to handle phone-ups professionally and following-up consistently will be the determining factor for gaining additional sales per month. An individual calling for information on the phone should be handled just like a person walking through the door. The way you deal with their questions and responses will make the difference between getting an appointment, or wasting your time. Once a salesperson meets and/or sells a customer, following-up professionally becomes the cornerstone for a long career of repeat and referral business. This program covers the following:
- Why Salespeople Don't Use the Phone Properly
- How to Determine Your Current Performance
- Philosophy of the Phone-Up Customer
- Philosophy of the Phone-Up Salesperson
- Preparing Professional Responses for Phone-Up Objections
- Creating a Phone-Up Presentation
- Following-Up to Develop Future Business
Investment: $1800 per day to include all training materials plus normal expenses (travel, food, rental car). Call Mike Whitty at (800) 453-2787 for available times and dates.
