I'm curious as to how much a salesperson makes on a sale ... approximately. And how many you have to sell to put bread on your table.

I don't work in a franchised store but new car commissions are unbelievably low, on almost anything under $30k I think you'd be LUCKY to make $500. Many cheap cars like Civics might earn a salesperson as little as $250.
It's a very tough industry to break into and has a ton of turnover because people either aren't able to sell enough or aren't happy with what they have to do to make enough money to live.
Best of luck but think long and hard before you move into this industry.
