Characteristics of a Good Car Salesperson

A positive initial impression is essential when choosing your salesperson. If this initial impression has been made, you can begin to talk to them about what, specifically, you are looking for. If they display the following characteristics, it is likely that you are working with someone you can trust:

• Shows experience
• Never pressures you into buying
• Works to build a personal relationship with you
• Displays thorough knowledge of the vehicles he or she shows
• Explains all loan options
• Will help to negotiate financing

Signs of an Untrustworthy Car Salesperson

Car salespeople often get a bad reputation. Although not every salesperson is looking to overcharge, there are some that should be avoided. If you notice the following in your salesperson, it may be best to speak with another member of the staff or visit a different dealership:

• Makes too many promises
• Is too pushy
• Lacks knowledge about the vehicles he or she shows
• Is unwilling to negotiate
