How to Recruit, Screen, Hire and Train Internet Sales Professionals for the Best and Greatest Likelihood of Success and Retention
How to Recruit, Screen, Hire and Train Internet Sales Professionals for the Best and Greatest Likelihood of Success and Retention
How important is it to hire and train the right people while building a sales team that can convert opportunities created by marketing into actual sales results?
Organizational development is more important than ever before…with many dealers losing staff while cutting costs during the depths of the recession, those that are growing their business need effective strategies, tools and tactics for attracting, screening and hiring the best Internet sales professionals with the greatest chance of achieving their own personal success, as well as sales productivity for the dealership. This session will explore organizational development strategies, recruiting, screening, hiring and training tools as well as the materials and processes that the most successful dealers in America have been using for years, and are being used today as a means of increasing success in the hiring process. Ralph Paglia will share the tools and processes he has used to build some of the most successful Internet sales departments in America while teaching attendees what the essential "must haves" are, and how to get them when seeking to grow your sales departments into high performance digital marketing to sales conversion engines.
Growing Your Internet Sales Organization from 10 to 300 Cars per MonthGrowing Your Internet Sales Organization from 10 to 300 Cars per Month
Courtesy Chevrolet in Phoenix, AZ became the USA’s leading Internet retailer of new and certified used Chevrolet vehicles… Human Resource Development was the key (secret sauce) to success.
Organizational Development is the essential stumbling block that many dealers and ISM’s report as the primary reason for Internet Sales Operations failure or lack of growth into a strategically significant level of sales.

Organizational Structure Determines Process Capabilities and Monitoring
Customer goes online and submits Lead
Internet Sales Specialist ISS) reviews lead, selects 4
vehicles for Price QuotesSends email with Quotes & Cars
BDC Staff makes initial phone call, collects customer info, sets up an appointment for the ISS
If no appointment, ISSContacts customer and seeks
appointment and/or agreement
Staffing Determines Process Execution Capabilities and Monitoring
Lead Process Maps should be indexed to
email templates, phone scripts and word tracks so that
dealership employees have a “paint by
numbers” guide to what is expected when
a lead is received. This process map
focuses on the first 12 hours after a new lead
is received.
Lead Process Maps should contain brief
explanations for the logic and execution tips for employees to review
before actually using the email templates, phone scripts and word tracks.
Actual template illustrations make it easy for dealership employees
to recognize the right template or document
when they see it in their CRM tool.
When Lead Process Maps are indexed to correspondingly numbered
email templates, phone scripts and word tracks, the
dealership is far more likely to execute the repetitious tasks
that create customer experiences which correlate
with higher sales closing ratios. The best process
maps break down email and phone contact processes into
separate flows so that they can be executed by different resources when scaling up
lead volumes and organization structures.
Although many car guys will say they believe in the concept of following up until prospects either buy or die… Large scale lead generation through highly effective marketing practices requires that scarce resources be allocated to where they will generate the most sales. Outsourcing followup on leads that have reached a designated status (dormant) or assigning them to alternate resources such as a BDC will allow ISS’s to stay focused on the 50% of the leads that buy, and do so within the first 10 days
Have a defined process for “closing out” unsold leads
LMP Scoring Index
Objective Review of Dealership Employee Lead responses encourages consistency and creates a numeric accountability – an LMP Report Card for Dealer or GM review…
Nothing has more impact on results than phone contact with the customer!
Outbound phone calls, ongoing phone follow-up and responding to emails requires adequate staffing and skill levels
Telephone Process
• 85% of Web visitors who contact the dealership before coming into the showroom, use the phone
• Direct Phone contact (after responding to an Internet lead by email), has the greatest impact on increasing sales closing ratios
Phone Follow-Up Sales Strategy:• Focus on having a set of objectives in front of us,
each time we make an email follow-up call• Word Track Forms (scripts) are used for training
and collecting customer information during each call that is made immediately after sending personalized email response
