Cant even keep anything a secret in this town... but you know what... I was never all that low profile hahaha....

First ever mechanical watch, before this, the most expensive watch I have will be my Samsung smart watch...

Spoiler!


Now I am too scared to wear it... so it will probably be in my room collecting dust for the forseeable future...

He’s doing fine ! He’s bored. And Hyundai is beneath him ! He should go to Porsche and sell beetles to douche bags but he’s getting complacent and lazy since he’s like their top sales.

From a printing guy to top sales in Hyundai. My man….

LOL fook my bad....

To be very honest, I just forgot completely....

The biggest change since the job change = I got fat. like fat fat, I went from 130 to 132 LBs to now 190 LBs, none of my shirts and suits fits me, I have to buy blazers like 3 times, went from small to now large... and I dunno... fook

Dont listen to Badhobz, I was never #1, the only time I got #1 was when the real #1 went on vacation for like 3 weeks, otherwise I am consistently in the top three 99% of the time...

I guess I have the gift of coming off genuine and friendly? people do tend to buy cars off the people they like?

I am somewhere stuck in between (my manager has found this thread), but I like Hyundai because the Sales managers are nice and Finance managers are nice (huge help that the head of Business Office/Finance manager is literally my best friend).

I do want to cont to craft my skills and move to a luxury brand, but at least from what I heard from mutual friends, luxury brands aren't doing too hot at the moment.

Ultimately I do want to be at Porsche, it seems like the perfect balance between income and passion.

But from what I understood, as a Porsche advisor, you are expected to be very very VERY independent, you are expected to take care of the deal from start to finish, you shouldnt need to go to the sales manager unless it is a very unique situation.

They wont hold your hand like they do at Hyundai, at Hyundai, you are just expected to bring the client to the desking stage, if you cant close, no worries, bring a sales manager down to your desk, and the manager will try to help you close your customer. They don't do this hand holding crap at Porsche, and that is where I really need to up my game.

I think I can get to desking pretty confidently, but closing is a whole other story, I am not gonna lie, I only close a very small percentage of my client, and I think those client will buy the car regardless which sales are sitting across from them, any of the "difficult" clients, my managers constantly come down and help me out, and they seems to do the impossible task that I can not do.

If I want to suceed at any other dealer, I need to step up my game, defintely wont find the same sucess if I were just let loose at the floor of a Porsche dealer as I am now

Other updates, I am starting to weep the benefits of being in the industry for "a while", we had an EV sale last month, and rather than being on the phone trying to call every person I said hi to in the last 6 months, I was "top sale" for the sales event because people just came in and looked for me from referrals and such. That was wild, random people that I never met "came in specifically looking for Jacky to buy an EV because so and so told them to go to Jacky".

My ultimate plan remains that I want to go to Porsche. Even just for the internal product training hahaha, I assume it will be easier to digest than the "latest 2025 Tucson changes", but yea.

Thanks everyone and I will try to update again when I make a big change. But so far, still at Hyundai, because truly believe I am not quite ready for the next step yet~ that and frikkin Porsche Richmond/Langley aren't hiring LOL, I cant do Vancouver, that turn over rate just seems.... unatural....

Dark0821 out of curiosity do you know how supercar sales rep survive? Like Ferrari/Lambo/Mclaren etc. Sure they make more commission but they also don't have as much volume. Also the CCP clampdown and slowing China economy + federal luxury tax seem to have cooled down the $100K+ market.

Porsche seems to be the ultimate brand right now. No discounts and they have volume sellers like the macan/cayenne.

Yea I was gonna say, exotic wise, Tofu will actually have a real answer for you. lol while I just talk out of my butt, I remember what Tofu told me before I dipped my toes, Preowned is where the meat is at, new car sales just keeps the lights on. So I am gonna go out on a limb here and says Tofu is mostly focused on used. You should see his ads, the way he has with words on the descriptions, it is most defn targeted to people like us!

To give a few examples (Tofu, hope you don't mind XDD)

================================================
2019 Porsche 991.2 911 GT3RS
Still one of the greatest, road legal track ready street cars available on the market today! This facelifted 991.2 GT3RS is an evolution model of the ultra successful 991.1 version, with a 20hp upgrade, NACA ducts for brake cooling, a further refined aero package and lightweight glass. Rennsport specification also includes lexan rear glass for even further weight savings. This Panda spec 3RS is also equipped with lightweight carbon bucket seats, a full leather trimmed interior, black wing risers, PCCB Ceramics and a Sharkwerks exhaust to maximize this stratospheric, 9000RPM flat six experience. 27k kms only, turn key and ready for summer. Looking to maximize this 3RS ownership experience? 1 Day Area27 Track day inclusive with purchase with our Pfaff Reserve West team!
================================================
2021 Porsche 718 Spyder PDK
The modern 550 Spyder of today. In an era of chasing performance numbers, outputs and reinventing the wheel, the 718 Spyder is a machine that completely throws out all of the statistics out the window, focusing solely on driver engagement and the raw emotions of a driver's machine. Self driving, witchcraft suspension, electric motor torque fill? Nah. Just a traditional, honest mid engine chassis with balanced, knife edge agility paired with a free breathing, high strung 4 Litre Flat six from the Porsche GT car division. Trust us, top down in this will give you a full unfiltered serving of proper GT Car motor induction noise experience, unmatched with anything else out there today under a million dollars. We totally dig the specification of this 718 as well: Classic Full red dash / Black alcantara contrast in the spartan, lightweight carbon fiber bucket seats finished with a no nonsense Black metallic exterior paintwork. Aurum Finished Spyder wheels gives off a dash of that perfect JPS retro feel to this superb machine. Modern Powertrain paired with retro cues of the golden years, this is indeed the perfectly balanced Porsche of today.
================================================
2013 McLaren MP4-12C Spider
The original MP4-12C Spider was the original pioneer of our McLaren drop top line up. Featuring a very speedy two piece folding power Retractable Hard Top system, this allows seamless roof transformation for speeds up to 40km/h in less than 20 seconds. Based on an identical Carbon MonoCell chassis to its coupe brethren, the 12C spider enjoys identical structural rigidity, with minimal weight increase, thus retaining all the original performance yet allowing the extra theatre that only a drop top can provide. This is one well looked after 12C Spider, only serviced by our Dealer network since new! Well spec'ed with Carbon Fiber Splitter, Carbon Fiber Mirror Casings, Carbon Fiber Diffuser, Sport Exhaust, Stealth Pack, Forged wheels, Meridian Sound upgrade and more! This 616HP drop top marvel is ready for summer and ready for you!
================================================
2024 Rolls-Royce Cullinan w/ Coachline
We will let the pictures do the talking for this one.. Stunning, as new Cullinan with Coachline specification. This Black Diamond Rolls is paired with the Ultra fire Turchese Blu interior and this spec is just too hot for us to handle... RR Monogram to all Headrests, Shooting Star Headliner, Extended Leather Headlining, Lounge seat option, Exterior Stainless Steel Package, Piano black veneer, Rolls-Royce Bespoke Audio.... and some of the finest craftsmen ship from the fellows of Goodwood. This money no object spec is a truly unique Cullinan, when the standard options are "just not quite enough". Chrome Monoblock 24" Rollers completes the presence of this Cullinan. Propelled by a bi turbo V12, this mega luxury SUV provides both oodles of seamless power and swiftness as expected of a benchmark luxury machine. We are truly excited for this one!

================================================

You see what I mean, I can't write like that. I mean I can try super hard and it will still come off as a cheap imitation. Tofu is able to capture the passion, get you excited while providing the specs that matters to that specific vehicle. It is still my goal to buy a car off Tofu because he does actually sells the cars that I dream of + just want to experience his craft again first hand lol

Haha, when is the last time you went to Porsche? No man, Even Porsche isn't immue to the current market, yes you can have discounts, not only on Macans/Panameras/Cayennes.

You can walk in to buy a brand new 911 (obv no GT series) with no prior history with the brand, you can get into a brand new Carrera-T lower than the official Porsche Canada websit.

Porsche is starting to have UNSOLD ALLOCATIONS on 911, when was the last time you had this happen?!

Before you can't imagine walking in wanting a stripper spec base 911, you will probably get laughed out the door, but right now, if you are in the market... just saying....

that's just a natural sales tactic to draw in customers, fat = well fed = more successful

We totally dig the specification of this 718 as well: Classic Full red dash / Black alcantara contrast in the spartan, lightweight carbon fiber bucket seats finished with a no nonsense Black metallic exterior paintwork. Aurum Finished Spyder wheels gives off a dash of that perfect JPS retro feel to this superb machine. Modern Powertrain paired with retro cues of the golden years, this is indeed the perfectly balanced Porsche of today.

2013 McLaren MP4-12C Spider
The original MP4-12C Spider was the original pioneer of our McLaren drop top line up. Featuring a very speedy two piece folding power Retractable Hard Top system, this allows seamless roof transformation for speeds up to 40km/h in less than 20 seconds. Based on an identical Carbon MonoCell chassis to its coupe brethren, the 12C spider enjoys identical structural rigidity, with minimal weight increase, thus retaining all the original performance yet allowing the extra theatre that only a drop top can provide. This is one well looked after 12C Spider, only serviced by our Dealer network since new! Well spec'ed with Carbon Fiber Splitter, Carbon Fiber Mirror Casings, Carbon Fiber Diffuser, Sport Exhaust, Stealth Pack, Forged wheels, Meridian Sound upgrade and more! This 616HP drop top marvel is ready for summer and ready for you!

2024 Rolls-Royce Cullinan w/ Coachline
We will let the pictures do the talking for this one.. Stunning, as new Cullinan with Coachline specification. This Black Diamond Rolls is paired with the Ultra fire Turchese Blu interior and this spec is just too hot for us to handle... RR Monogram to all Headrests, Shooting Star Headliner, Extended Leather Headlining, Lounge seat option, Exterior Stainless Steel Package, Piano black veneer, Rolls-Royce Bespoke Audio.... and some of the finest craftsmen ship from the fellows of Goodwood. This money no object spec is a truly unique Cullinan, when the standard options are "just not quite enough". Chrome Monoblock 24" Rollers completes the presence of this Cullinan. Propelled by a bi turbo V12, this mega luxury SUV provides both oodles of seamless power and swiftness as expected of a benchmark luxury machine. We are truly excited for this one!

================================================

You see what I mean, I can't write like that. I mean I can try super hard and it will still come off as a cheap imitation. Tofu is able to capture the passion, get you excited while providing the specs that matters to that specific vehicle. It is still my goal to buy a car off Tofu because he does actually sells the cars that I dream of + just want to experience his craft again first hand lol
I'm sure you'll get there. Keep in mind Tofu has been doing this for a decade, you've been doing this for 2 years.

Show 10 years ago me what I am doing now and 10 years ago me will tell me to fuck off I don't know what you are talking about

The biggest change since the job change = I got fat. like fat fat, I went from 130 to 132 LBs to now 190 LBs, none of my shirts and suits fits me, I have to buy blazers like 3 times, went from small to now large... and I dunno... fook

Dont listen to Badhobz, I was never #1, the only time I got #1 was when the real #1 went on vacation for like 3 weeks, otherwise I am consistently in the top three 99% of the time...

I guess I have the gift of coming off genuine and friendly? people do tend to buy cars off the people they like?

I am somewhere stuck in between (my manager has found this thread), but I like Hyundai because the Sales managers are nice and Finance managers are nice (huge help that the head of Business Office/Finance manager is literally my best friend).

I do want to cont to craft my skills and move to a luxury brand, but at least from what I heard from mutual friends, luxury brands aren't doing too hot at the moment.

Ultimately I do want to be at Porsche, it seems like the perfect balance between income and passion.

But from what I understood, as a Porsche advisor, you are expected to be very very VERY independent, you are expected to take care of the deal from start to finish, you shouldnt need to go to the sales manager unless it is a very unique situation.

They wont hold your hand like they do at Hyundai, at Hyundai, you are just expected to bring the client to the desking stage, if you cant close, no worries, bring a sales manager down to your desk, and the manager will try to help you close your customer. They don't do this hand holding crap at Porsche, and that is where I really need to up my game.

I think I can get to desking pretty confidently, but closing is a whole other story, I am not gonna lie, I only close a very small percentage of my client, and I think those client will buy the car regardless which sales are sitting across from them, any of the "difficult" clients, my managers constantly come down and help me out, and they seems to do the impossible task that I can not do.

If I want to suceed at any other dealer, I need to step up my game, defintely wont find the same sucess if I were just let loose at the floor of a Porsche dealer as I am now

Other updates, I am starting to weep the benefits of being in the industry for "a while", we had an EV sale last month, and rather than being on the phone trying to call every person I said hi to in the last 6 months, I was "top sale" for the sales event because people just came in and looked for me from referrals and such. That was wild, random people that I never met "came in specifically looking for Jacky to buy an EV because so and so told them to go to Jacky".

My ultimate plan remains that I want to go to Porsche. Even just for the internal product training hahaha, I assume it will be easier to digest than the "latest 2025 Tucson changes", but yea.

Thanks everyone and I will try to update again when I make a big change. But so far, still at Hyundai, because truly believe I am not quite ready for the next step yet~ that and frikkin Porsche Richmond/Langley aren't hiring LOL, I cant do Vancouver, that turn over rate just seems.... unatural....

130 > 190?!?! WTF man.
