100% true. I had a client who was developing a video game from his own finance. The guy was very rich. One day, when I look at his personal photos when we were talking about family, I noticed that his attire is someone that you would expect from a broke collage/university student. Even when he attended business meetings, he simply never suited up. You would think that he purchased his clothes from a cheap store, which could lead you think that he doesn't have must of value. Funnily though, his home, wife, kids, cars, boats, and general lifestyle that surrounded him communicated otherwise. The guy really is rich and he did it all by himself. Never judge a book by its cover indeed.
@@The_slightly_indecent_one depends, some rich guy buy cars because they simply like it. Other people opinion does not matter. They will buy lamborghini because they felt like it. They buy Toyota cars also because they felt like it.
I worked in a car dealership back in the early 2000s. I remember we had a guy on the lot. You could tell the man worked in construction. After seeing the man walk around without a single salesman approached him. I decided to approach him. I grabbed the keys and my dealer plate. The first thing I did when introducing was apologize for the lack of respect. As someone who came from a similar background, I was able to get the man to speak about his job. That opened him up a bit, and he became more friendly. He was looking at a special edition mustang. In his youth, he had a fox body. I suggested we take it for a ride. I have the keys. He had said I dont want to get the car dirty. I said hey that's what detailers are for. Relive being 16. Not only did the man buy the car. He brought in his wife to trade in her car. Also, a month later he set up a fleet account for his construction company. Only dealt with me. He also referred his employees and friends.
I needed chiropractor one day, realized no one around me was accepting anyone with low-income, i found one guy, had the best bedside manor and hospitality. I realized ive never met a physician ive liked more in 5yrs, i see his value and humanity more than anyone in healthcare.
@@KingNiros you don't mean to be harsh but calling people dumb for seeing the good in others and not only acting for their own good? Yeah you sure got your priorities straight
@@fabricofdreams. There was no "good" in what that guy did. He played on that guy's insecurities and now that man is stuck with an absolutely ridiculous monthly car payment which he'd likely regret when the first payment is due. Dumb was not the correct word, but lacking the perception to assess things before coming to a conclusion would be accurate. The good part about that is, it can be practiced and one can become more aware of the intricacies of not just human behavior, but of all things that we can perceive. I'm not perfect by any means. Sorry about calling you dumb.

I run a restaurant and I have a regular customer who dresses like the guy in the video. I always tell my staff that he dress like a school principal, no branded clothing no fancy watch on his wrist. In fact he is the biggest and most successful contractor in my state. He build hospitals, schools, roads, highways, state's conventional hall etc etc...he is the type of guy who could own private jets, yachts. he speak softly to me and my staff, so polite. during festive season he will give honey dews from his farm to me and my staffs as gifts. I have mad respect for people like that.
I am honored to know these type of people. The fact that you get honey dews from his farm actually shows that he really cares about you and your well beeing. You/Your operation give him food and cook for him. He returnes with a little thank you that otherwise you could not buy. That's the difference. Cheers to you and the other honorable man.
Never pre-judge... When I sold cars back in the day, a recent high school graduate was looking at new Camaros...none of the 10 salesmen would give him the time a day, so I did...long story short I sold him a New Camaro as a graduation gift from his parents, his older sister a New Trailblazer and his parents a New Tahoe in the same week...Never Pre-Judge...Never!
treat the janitor the same way you'd treat the CEO. It costs nothing to be kind and respectful... also adds years to your life and slows signs of aging ❤
I used to work for a Car Dealership, had no experience with sales but was hired due to knowledge of car... One day a guy walks in home clothes and it was colleagues trun to handle him and she refused just coz he was in slippers and home clothes... He was handed over to me and I took him for a test drive.. my boss and colleague asked me if he was going to book and I was like maybe but atleast I gave his a feel of what the car is... That same evening he comes with a friend and his 7yr old son for 2nd test drive, once the test drive was completed he immediately books a top end with half payment made and the rest thru finance... The best feeling was that I didn't judge him by what he dressed as.... And later he referred so many customers to me... Had a grand time selling cars...
@@varunkamal91 just think of everyone as a person and keep that in your heart. It sounds silly but it makes the difference. It takes courage to be kind and loved by being kind, not just respected and feared. If you care for people, it'll come back to you since humans replicate feelings and the way they're being treated.
I worked at a car rental company. I felt bad for an old man who was one of our drivers because he was working at an old age. One day I drove him home to what was a bloody mansion in Florida. Come to find out he had sold his business in New York and was only working to get away from his wife.
Actualy the little respect made my mom's day. Seeing she always wore ragged clothes because of her job. She never get the respect from the sales ladies from the mall.
He was literally conning the man, stole the car, stole the dealer’s info, and technically was accessory to an illegal interrogation of the actual salesperson he’s impersonating

I wasn't a sales man but worked at a dealership, there was about 4 in the vicinity. An older black gentleman walked into the dealership next to us, was wearing his work clothes, he was a mechanic. Apparently no one said hello to him and he didn't wait too long before he left and went to the Cadillac dealership across from us. The man bought 7... I repeat 7 cars. His grandkids were about to graduate and he was gifting them all a new car. The sales man that helped him was an incredibly nice and respectful man that got the same crap from his coworkers, definitely changed their minds that day
I live less than 5 miles from a Honda dealership, a very well known one. I went there one day to look at a specific Honda. I was in the showroom, wandering around, a neatly dressed middle age guy, and no one looked my way. I went back 2 weeks later, and again, was totally ignored. The day after that, I drove 25 miles to a different Honda dealership. I was greeted at the door and a salesman very attentively walked with me around the showroom, and courteously answered every question I had. I bought a new car from him that very day and paid full price in cash. I have referred several friends to that dealership since then.
I'd have to drive that car up to the other dealership in order to have it serviced and make sure that everybody knew that I didn't buy it from there and why. 😂🤣😂
My favorite kind of customer:snubbed somewhere else. It costs nothing to say hello to people and be polite, even if you aren’t buying the dealership experience is for everyone.
And if the other salesman at the first dealership didn't it's because they are bad at their jobs. The point stands, the first dealership had bad salesman and the second dealership had at least one good one.@@davec.3198
Had something similar happened at the Jeep dealer in town. Went multiple times with full intent to buy but never a single look. Ended up going to one 2 hours away. Not even 5 mins in the lot and a salesman was already out there greeting us and offering us test drive. Drove away in a brand new 2024 Grand Cherokee
I had a professor in college who wore the same 5 outfits year round & drove the same car since graduating from the same college many years ago. I found out he came from old money, family help build our college, lived in his childhood home & traveled all summer long. Real ppl with money do not dress to impress with flashy clothing, jewelry, homes, cars, etc. They know their worth & what they value in life. He was an amazing person & professor. He & his wife always hosted Thanksgiving & Xmas dinner for those who could not go home for the holidays 💕
The thing is, you have in your mind all of the things that you want when you get money. When you end up getting those things, you find that it really isn’t all that fulfilling and all you really ever needed was time with the people you care about. Freedom to live and love is what success is all about

When I was 12 years old, my aunt and me went to dealerships to look for cars as I was crazy about them. We went to the a Mercedes dealership and I asked a lot of questions until my aunt said thats enough, as you asked a lot and the salesman has work to do. The salesman replied: "This buy might be a potential Mercedes buyer in the future" treating me with the same respect as a grown up. Will never forget this
I can remember driving to the Mercedes Benz yard with my father as a teenager. My father wanted to buy a Mercedes. When we entered the dealership, the salesman said: “It's great that you've chosen Mercedes, but drive this piece of junk off our lot first.” My father turned around and said, “Okay, I'll do it.” We got in and drove straight to BMW. There he bought a BMW 7 Series, the biggest at the time, and drove back to Mercedes. He went inside, to this dealer and said: “I wanted to show you my new car, you asshole. Have a nice day.” I will never forget that day. RIP Dad. Love you.
@@kanahikurtkk he never had a chance to own a mercedes because of the dick salesman. Should have reported the salesman and gone to another dealership. My dad still has his 280se which I hope to inherit one day.
Years ago, I worked with an amazing salesman. He said that he didn’t visit his clients in a new car or wore an expensive watch. If his clients saw him in the latest model car, new suits etc his clients would think he didn’t needed their business. One of the best bosses I’ve ever had.
Lol. One business consultant told me he drives his older car to visit clients because if he shows up in a new car his clients would start complaining he is charging them too much.
I think it depends of the business. As a management or financial consultant, if you drive looking very well put, they would know that you're having success yourself. They'll love to hire your services.
I also could see the perspective that a businessman/salesman is willing to dress and look their absolute and professional best in front of anyone, no matter who they were and how much money they had. They were gonna dress to impress because that's simply their client/potential client, no matter what. I like that side too, as it also presents it's own form of humility and humbleness. They don't feel they are any better than anyone, it just shows they truly care about just solely looking the part in front of anyone they do business with.
I did exactly the same 20 years ago as salesman selling a 67k$ Lexus. The buyer was an elderly unkept lady entering the showroom wearing old clothes. In the end she said to me I was the only one who treated her fairly. She was well aware that her appearance made people look down on her but she was in a really bad situation after the loss of her son.
@@MaxEngelberts-sr4lr yes that is what salesmen do . also she got the product so he did not "rip her off" - it was not a scam per say , it was a transaction she didn´t need but she wanted it ... i was one of the best in my field in my country for 5 years (usually ranked in top 10 sometimes in the top 3 each month) and when i trained new people for the job i told them (as a half joke but they got the picture) : "leave your conscience at home in the morning if you want to make money here" ... find out what the customer wants and sell him a dream , or better live the dream with him for a moment . you act like their best friend , you are respectuful , you relate with them , and yes people wearing "hobo" clothes are often very good customers and they come back to you if you treat them right ...
I knew a young kid back in the early 90s, who worked through high school and saved every penny to buy a brand new car-with cash-before he graduated from high school. He was a nice kid, too. He wanted to do it all by himself, so he didn’t bring his parents. No one would help him, and I think he even got kicked off at least one lot. I guess he got pretty frustrated. He bought a brand new car from the first lot that actually helped him. He paid, in full, with cash. I don’t remember the details, but I do remember it was $12,000. That was a lot of money for a regular person back then. His sister told me that he made sure to drive by the dealerships that didn’t help him to wave and smile. Not bad for a country kid in the Midwest!
I know this is true because I did it. On a different scale but the same understanding. A guy in beat-up overalls covered in mud came on the lot of Liberty Motorsports in Yuma Az. The other salesman ignored him because of his clothes. I didn't. Turns out the man was one of the biggest farmers & had several million dollars in loans for just combines. He walked out that day with four quads for his farmssss. THANKS DAVE 😆
Don’t ever turn a customer away no matter what the size or situation is. I once had a small customer who doesn’t buy much from me but I insisted on keeping the relationship even though it was a waste of time. She ended up introducing me to her friend because of the good customer service I showed, and her friend ended up becoming one of the companies biggest clients.
I'm an advocate for turning customers away. Sorry but it's sales and not everyone is going to be suited to the product. Qualify your prospects before trying to sell otherwise its a lot more work and very much a matter of luck

That was masterful salesmanship. Malcolm Gladwell once interviewed the most successful car salesman in all of NJ, and asked him what made him that. The guy attributed it to one simple thing: He never judged someone’s financial ability or inclination to buy a car based on the clothes they wore. 🤔💰👌✅

First month as a salesman at Honda, 2 young women around my age (23) came in to look at a Honda Prologue when it first came out. They were wearing simple gym clothes, hair was messy, looked like they just woke up so my 2 coworkers who were car sales veterans looked straight past them and ignored them. I immediately jumped at the chance to help them (they were pretty attractive, didn’t take much for me to want to help them). I took them on a drive, made them fall in love with the car (and me ;D) and she purchased that day with a $30k down payment and a bunch of accessories on the car (a pretty big commission for me). Later that day the car sales veterans that looked straight past them complained that I took their customer… my manager backed me saying he saw them completely ignore this customer. You never know who you’re dealing with, treat everyone the same and it pays off not only morally but financially 👍
This kind of thing is real. I worked for Ford for years as a mechanic. Always liked this one customer who left gifts in his truck or kind notes thanking us for our work. One day I saw him looking at a new Mustang and said none of the salesmen ever took him serious when he wanted to buy one. I asked the manager for the keys to a new GT and explained why I needed to take this customer on a test drive. We went out for all of 5 minutes before he said to go back to the dealership. He bought the exact car we drove and payed in full on the spot. It caused so much drama that they fired two salesmen and I got a two dollar raise. Even after I quit ford I still service that man’s cars.
I sell roofing not cars… had a customer book a appointment that most people say this is person is just white trashing… I showed her what we do for roofing ending up finding out she owned 6 houses on that block she respected me so much she told me just do all 6 houses on scheduling… made a total of 13k in commissions alone and recommended me to her whole family. I learned a lot that day, that the rich don’t wear nice flashy things but rather whatever they want wear
poor people dress to be rich rich people dont care theres nothing wrong with buying nice clothes but sometimes just dressing casual is more comfortable
I see so many people working minimum wage jobs who will spend their last penny on designer brands with huge logos. I always say as soon as I see designer clothes I can tell that person is superficial and in fact doesn’t possess anywhere near the amount of wealth they wish to project. Actual wealthy people usually don’t spend crazy money on clothes as it’s one of the dumbest things you can spend money on an item which loses all value the second you wear it and will eventually get holes in it the more you wash it. It beats their logic of reserving wealth to invest rather than finite resources on something so they can project wealth to people they don’t care about.
@@dylanmorgan2752 If you are selling a Lambo, you generally selling to someone superficial who wants to APEAR wealthy and show off. There is no practical purpose for a car like this, its all showing off because your insecure or bored or your trying to make up for something else with the girls. Most people buying exotics cars are millionaires spending nearly all their money on their cars and house. The actual billionaires don't care about cars and are driving a Prius or Tesla, and they instead show off with planes, yachts and trying to have their own space ships lol. It's all a who can waste the most money on something not needed - impractical contest. It shouldn't be extremely rare anyone spends their extra money helping people vs unneeded luxury that doesn't actually make you happy.

Why’re dressed like that??) Adam would just shrug it off.
My cousin went through something similar. He worked in a dealership in our hometown in Brazil. A very humble looking person wlaked into the dealership on his first week. People thought he had no money, so asked the rookie, my cousin, to talk to him. That guy was a coconut entrepreneur and was looking to buy a couple of big cars to expand his business. Big commission for my cousin.
@@miguelito2364Hahaha. Similar I mean for the guy that didn't look wealthy to buy. It was a Ford dealership and the guy bought Ford Ranger, which was very expensive for Brazilians' standards back in the 90's.
I just KNOW you are an awesome salesman! I have always said that and think every salesman should think that way. I’m a banker and we have a customer who wears ripped, ratty-looking clothes, appears to be homeless, doesn’t drive and walks everywhere, and we often see him walking out of the gas station across the street with food. He has 6 digits in his bank account and doesn’t use a debit card. He always comes straight to me because I’m usually the first one to help him when everyone else seems too nervous to do so. I hope you keep outselling all of your coworkers, sir!! 👏🏼

I went into a dealership once. I really wanted a Nissan 350Z (was 20 years ago, still remember the experience). A salesman approached me, told him him there was no way I could ever afford it (AUD$101k), but the guy still sat me down and walked me through all the options available. Didn't get to test drive it, but it made my day.
I was in a similar situation when I was a young man, except that the salesman turned me away. I never, ever again set foot in the dealership. Their loss
My friends dad wore flannel shirts and coveralls all the time. He retired from the electric company (not sure what he did but i know at one point he worked the lines and poles) and he retired quite nicely. He wanted a volvo. He walked into the volvo dealership and not a single soul acknowledged his existence. He tried to get someones attention several times n no one would help him. He got fed up and left. 2 hours later he drove up in his brand new mercedes he paid cash for. That car had 24 miles on it when he pulled into the volvo lot most of which was the test drive and the trip to the volvo dealership. He pulled up front and 3 salesman came out and he very politely told them that he wouldn't drive a volvo even if they gave him one for free and left. Idk if those guys remembered him or even knew he had been there before but i know he felt amazing after that. Lol i know cause we were riding with him. Lol he talked about it the whole way home
Car salesman in the US just seem like assholes. I live in Sweden and I followed my father, who's a welder, to Lexus to check out their newest car launch. I was literally in sweatpants since he kinda just called 5min before he left and asked if I wanted to tag along. The sales staff were very polite and didn't judge anyone. There were about 6-7 people in the showroom and about 3 salesman. They just asked those that were waiting to grab some coffee and snacks and they'll help as as soon as possible. I wasn't planning to buy a new car but I got a pretty good deal on my 4+yr old Corolla($22k on a car I bought for $31k) so both me and my dad bought the new car. His was as a second car. I bought 5 new cars in my life, a Mitsubishi, a Volvo, 2 Toyota's and a Lexus. I've never had a bad experience and I literally dress in whatever is comfortable. Literally went and bought the Volvo wearing beach shorts, t-shirt and flipflops. Salesman in Sweden understand very well that if you treat a customer right, they're more willing to buy a car. They don't really care what "kind" of person buys their cars. All money is worth the same and being respectful and polite will bring them back for more. They also don't try to scam people or try to upsell. Those sales tactics don't actually work on normal people and just puts them off.
When my mom was young, she had a neighbor in St. John NB, who was a fishing boat captain. After a particularly great haul, the captain decided to buy his crew members a car, each. His fisherman attire got him ignored for a while. Finally, a salesman apologized for making him wait and asked what he needed. According to my mom, the captain paid cash for a dozen new vehicles. That salesman made a shitload in commissions. Don't judge a book by its cover and just be polite.

(I'm not trying to show off, just wanted to share my experience) anyhow I drove 4 hrs every weekend right after work to the big dog motorcycle dealership in Alb N.M. I walked in I uniform covered in grease and oil. Was ignored every time. Till one day a new salesman took 20 mins to talk to me. I bought my Big Dog cash. Without the test ride. That was his first sale.
Same thing happened to a buddy of mine. He owned several dozers and a Harley salesman wouldn’t even look at him because he had dirt all over him. He bought two Harley’s cash from the salesman that did and made a point of telling the jerk that wouldn’t wait on him what an asshole he was 😂. Marley one of a kind.
One of the wealthiest guy I knew dressed like a common farmer....he had grown up on a farm and liked boots and jeans. He drove an old truck and loved hounds!

I was working at a Chevy Buick dealer when a homeless guy walked up. No one else wanted to talk to him and so I used my up to say hello. The guy asked if he could look at our 2500 Saburban a rare vehicle. I said sure but it's brand new and asked if he didn't mind using our restroom to clean up a bit so we don't get any dirt on the upholstery. I got some protective coverings for the interior while he used the restroom. After 20 min or so I knocked on the door to make sure he was OK. When he finally came out 40 min later he was wearing a very nice suit with a brief case and a trash bag. He owned an import export company and said every year when he picks up company fleet vehicles he does so dressed like a homeless person and buys all his fleet vehicles at retail to the first sales rep who treats him like a human being and that it was my lucky day. The guy brought 2 suburban 2 Buick park Ave and 5 pick up trucks.

I was 20 years old and just got back from a 15 month deployment from Iraq back in the early 2000s. Of course you save quite a bit of money when overseas. Nothing to buy really. Now looking back I should have invested that money but my young self always wanted a Harley Davidson. I walked into the dealer and really liked the Soft-tail deluxe with the white wall tires which they had at $21,000 ticket price. The salesman was an asshole who kept pointing me to the used bikes and sportsters who ranged around $8,000. After repeatedly told him I’m not interested and I want the Soft-Tail he asked me who was going to co-sign to finance it. Man was I pissed. I told him to get lost and get me the manager. Talked to the manager told him that guy is a prick and shouldn’t be here. Bought the bike in Cash at 18,000 out the door. He even through in two leather jackets and two free helmets. For the next 10 years I was king of the road. With my lady who gained a shit-ton of weight in those next 10 years. But that’s another story for another day! Hahaha cheers fellas Edit: ✍️ Today is October 7, 2024. First I would like to thank all of you for the nice comments you left. Cheers amigos! 🍻 To those of you that had feelings hurt. Do me a favor and stop drinking Soy milk. lol sheesh Now for my wife who is sitting next to me as I write this. Her name is Sophia and is from Mexican decent. We have been together forever and have 3 beautiful kids. Now some of you think I was mean to my wife but to be honest we are straight forward and I’m actually nicer than her family. You ask me what do I mean by that? Well I’m white and I grew up in the state of Montana. I met my wife when I was in the military out in LA. What I soon found out is that Spanish families like to party and like to talk a lot of shit. My nick name that her family calls me is negrito which means little black guy I think but I’m white. Lol I guess they always go opposite of what it means or something. But I take it as a badge of honor. I feel like if they don’t like you they wouldn’t even talk to you. Which leads me to my wife. They call her Flaca which means skinny in Spanish even though she isn’t. My point is they all talk a lot of shit. She laughs about it but I think it stings sometimes. But if it stings maybe you should do something about it. But anyways cheers fellas hope you all are doing well! 🍻
I walked into a Jaguar dealership and I was completely ignored. I was a young kid. I had a shirt and tie but clearly cheap stuff from Sears. What they didn't know was that I was there to pick up a brochure for my boss. I picked up the brochure but I also went to the Lexus dealer down the street and got their brochure. Talked my boss into the Lexus instead. It wasn't hard. I was a car guy, I knew what I was talking about: Jaguars were crap then and crap now. And my boss trusted my opinion. Learned so much from working there -including the all important lesson: be nice to the secretaries and assistants -some of them have the boss' ear. As for sales, don't waste your time judging your client's ability to afford your product. That's their problem, not yours. Your problem is to convince him that he can't live without your product/service. A great salesman would have talked the guy into buying the car even if he had to mortgage his house for it.
I used to be a salesman, working on commission. Man , I tell you ... I can't tell you how often kindness goes so far with people that are unassuming. I've made some pretty big sales because I would treat each and every person exactly how I would want to be treated.
WOW thats crazy, i never think that i will se this in my life, but this seller is a human with the best character i have never seen on this world. Please copy him because he know what is be a human. WoW
I was a lot guy at a Mercedes Dealership when I was in college. One Saturday a guy in overalls and work boots was looking at a 500 S. I was polishing showroom cars and he called me over and asked what he could get the car for. I looked at the sticker and read it. He said ok, but what do you think I can get it for. I said I saw people ask to throw in tax and registration and they usually are ok. He said 'Deal'. I grabbed my favorite salesman out of their meeting and took him to Leonard Poole, the founder of Fortune 500 Air Products.
He acted like he was a veteran salesman, treated him with better respect than the other real veteran sales people, and that my friends, is why people choose to buy from you! All people want is respect! That's it! Even Rebecca was shocked that Nick was able to close the deal! It was at that moment that she realized that Nicks respect to people is what she herself should be doing more often too! The shocked look on Rebecca's face and the other veterans face was the moment they realized they better shape up their character traits!

My business partner and I purchased a couple of C63 AMG's from Mercedes in late 2018. He dresses in a suit and wears a Rolex while I prefer a hoodie, jeans, and superstars and my much more functional Samsung Galaxy Watch. Naturally the sales guy greets my business partner and not me. Talks to him mostly and not really me. I've worked on cars all my life and naturally had a lot of questions but he mostly ignored them or gave me one word answers. In the end, I walked off and started checking out cars on my own when another sales guy came over and just talked to me about cars... Not even Mercedes.. just modified cars and we talked about what we used to drive etc. later I see the other sales guy walk over to me as my business partner must have told him I was the one to make the final decision on cars and I told him I wanted to work with the second sales guy. We purchased 3 of them... The first guy must have been fuming. Just goes to show you shouldn't judge a book by its cover.
Shit like that is crazy to me, I dont get how so many sales people are so out of touch, its not rocket science to be nice to humans especially when you want their business. Costs you nothing.
From my experience I remember working as a delivery driver way back then in NYC a Chinese family always comes in and never exceed over $60 for the family of 4 and family dress in Old Navy cloths driving a Toyota sienna. One day they got Delivery and I delivered to their house. It was one of the biggest house I ever been to. They got a big ass Gate and the house was a fucking mansion in NYC queens. I was like shit they were that loaded. But they prefer to not stand out. I never look at people the same again. It’s often always the ones that dress the most casual and care free are the ones that are loaded.
I worked in a Toyota dealer on Fordham Road in the Bronx in the late 90s. Toyota’s sales training was aggressive but it was very clear: Never pre-judge a Prospect’s ability to pay.
It’s true!! Car salesman judge off of what you’re wearing!! I had a couple of friends who sure they weren’t there for a Lamborghini, but they still were looking to spend about 30k on a car and at 3 different dealerships they got ignored by every single salesman like they weren’t there!! The 4th one actually paid attention to them and got the sale!!!
its a great salesmanship and it was live... true hospiality & cordial...❤ every visitor are a customer for something....but every visitor must become one of our customer...with our hospitable approach... respect everyone.... treat everyone equal ..... tomoro theyre our solid customers... never judge a book by its cover....
Every car I've ever bought was sold to me by the new guy who took me seriously. The seasoned salespeople wouldn't give me the time of day. I bought every single time.
My father was a car sales person. He made the same mistake as these people. I had a friend that needed a car and had the money. I sent my friend there. My farther wouldn't even talk to the guy. Man I was embarrassed.
True, some of the richest people in the world dress in nothing but plain clothes. Unless you actually talk with them and confirm they aren't gonna buy, assume anyone is a prospective client/customer.
Happened to me, in 2008 went to the Honda dealership to buy the new Accord coupe since mine was totaled I cant even remember how many salesmen walked by me and didnt even say hello. I asked to test drive the Accord they got this African guy that could barely speak English to help me (Im a Black Dominican with an accent) they only had the 4 cylinder I didnt like it because it didnt have enough power so he starts showing me other cars... we go in the showroom and I saw the 2009 Accord 4 door pearl white and I said "just let me have that one I need a car" his eyes were wide open and then asked "you dont want to test drive it?" I said "no". While they were doing the paperwork my wife arrived, I go outside to meet her and I see this brand new S2000 I asked my wife if she liked it and she said yes so I go inside and tell my salesman that I wanted the S2000 too he jumped out of his chair and asked "are you sure?" I said hurry up do the paperwork before I change my mind. You should've seen all the sales people looking like daaaaaammmm he is buying two cars and I just walked by him... I was wearing shorts, tank top and flip-flops 😂 the salesman was so happy he was a new employee too. My wife fell asleep and totaled the Accord and the S2000 has been sitting in my garage since 2016 because we have 3 kids now so we dont fit in it 😂
I once worked with a man that was part owner in a BMW dealership before they sold it. He told me about a heavy set guy who pulled up in an old beat up ford ranger dressed like he was homeless. Every salesperson ran off. He walked up to the guys truck to see what he needed. The guy was dropping off a signed check with no number on it. He said a family member was coming by to pick out a car. Told him to fill in the amount and process the check. Once it cleared, they’d pick up the car. The dude was a multi millionaire who owned farm land turned oil field. Every car deal after that was a house deal and no salesman got any commission 😂
So lovely and almost cried by reading the comments from everyone, sometimes, a film with a life related genre like this can make everyone to realize that the world is actually beautiful
The old 'White Collar' TV show that was on the USA Network. It was one of my wife's favorite shows at the time; I used to (more than) occasionally watch this show with her. I miss those times.
I was once a car saleswoman in Philippines. Knowing Filipinos, they don't wear suits and tie but they still wear polo shirt and pants as formal attire. When a man came in to our car display, he was only wearing white shirt, cargo shorts and a pair of flipflops. Without judging his outfit, I assisted him, told him which car is good for a family, and I'll never forget this interaction. He bought the car on the spot when most people buy it through bank finance. And I will continue NOT to judge people just by their outfit or by how they look.
In the 1980s, I lived next door to a UCLA Medical Center ER nurse. A man walked into the ER with a medical complaint. He looked to be in his 70s; was attired in nondescript clothing; was plain-spoken; and had a somewhat disheveled appearance. My neighbor was collecting basic information from him. When asked his name, he replied, "Norton Simon" (the American industrialist and philanthropist whose net worth at the time of his death in 1993 was $10 billion [$21.8 billion today]). He indeed was the Norton Simon. As the saying goes, one cannot judge a book by its cover.
As a salesman, the WORST thing you can do is prejudge a prospective buyer! The other people who work there think this salesman is incredible. He's not. He just gave this prospective buyer the respect he deserves and sold him the car he's always wanted.
wow amazing how many people agreed to this video..... The world is full of judging people it seems, awful, thank you for you guys actually doing this, you're hero
That's what my friend's lifelong and very successful salesman father used to say. "Anybody can afford a $2k suit, shirt, tie, cuff links and a fake Rolex and anybody can afford a pair of $20 jeans and a T-Shirt." "Knowing which one can afford a $1m. house, that's my job, and the only way to do my job is by engaging a potential client, and everyone is a potential client". He also told the anecdote of his biggest customer turning up to the sale of a relatively modest property in an old van and dressed like a bum. It turned out that the guy was a wealthy property developer and landlord who ended up putting all of his property sales and rental management through my friend's dad's business. My friend's Dad used to boast that he "made a million dollars in commission selling a $250k house", because of just that one client.
Growing up, I loved going with my dad to Porsche dealerships bc their cars looked like fun. He always told me not to dress up, and that way, you don't get pressured by every salesperson. It was also fun to go back dressed nicely and see who recognized us. I grew up knowing how much my parents could afford (mentally, I also compared what was on the lot to what we had at home) and I used to snicker when people wouldn't talk to us bc we didn't look like the regular clientele.
My co worker once started working with a lady in sweats that had paint spots all over. She started talking to him about a brand new Maybach. After building the vehicle to her spec her husband called and asked if she was buying it. He also asked if the salesmen pre judge her. She responded with no and was very happy with the service. She left paying cash for 230k on it.
@@mattk4110 He knew that she was going to build one with the sales person. Once you build a car at Mercedes store you can take it to any location and set the order. She decided to go with my co worker because he did not prejudge. He asked her if he pre judge her based on the outfit she walked in with. She said he didn’t prejudge and the rest was history 😄
White collar was a great show. Some context for those who didn't watch it though: "Nick Halden" (not his real name) is a notorious white collar criminal working with the FBI as an alternative to being in prison. He did not work there. He was ultimately posing as a new hire while Rebecca was gone, so he could get inside her computer for a case. But he's so good at lying and deceiving, the other employees just went with it (which is half the show, lol). Great show, definitely worth a watch.
I will never forget Berry. He was a wonderful sales man. He helped me get my 2nd car ever and a great deal back in 2016. He retired a couple years later.

The richest people often wear the most unassuming stuff because they literally have nothing to prove to anyone.
100% true. I had a client who was developing a video game from his own finance. The guy was very rich. One day, when I look at his personal photos when we were talking about family, I noticed that his attire is someone that you would expect from a broke collage/university student. Even when he attended business meetings, he simply never suited up. You would think that he purchased his clothes from a cheap store, which could lead you think that he doesn't have must of value. Funnily though, his home, wife, kids, cars, boats, and general lifestyle that surrounded him communicated otherwise. The guy really is rich and he did it all by himself.
Never judge a book by its cover indeed.

I worked in a car dealership back in the early 2000s. I remember we had a guy on the lot. You could tell the man worked in construction. After seeing the man walk around without a single salesman approached him. I decided to approach him. I grabbed the keys and my dealer plate. The first thing I did when introducing was apologize for the lack of respect. As someone who came from a similar background, I was able to get the man to speak about his job. That opened him up a bit, and he became more friendly. He was looking at a special edition mustang. In his youth, he had a fox body.
I suggested we take it for a ride. I have the keys. He had said I dont want to get the car dirty. I said hey that's what detailers are for. Relive being 16. Not only did the man buy the car. He brought in his wife to trade in her car. Also, a month later he set up a fleet account for his construction company. Only dealt with me. He also referred his employees and friends.

Dumb was not the correct word, but lacking the perception to assess things before coming to a conclusion would be accurate.

I wasn't a sales man but worked at a dealership, there was about 4 in the vicinity. An older black gentleman walked into the dealership next to us, was wearing his work clothes, he was a mechanic.

I live less than 5 miles from a Honda dealership, a very well known one. I went there one day to look at a specific Honda. I was in the showroom, wandering around, a neatly dressed middle age guy, and no one looked my way. I went back 2 weeks later, and again, was totally ignored. The day after that, I drove 25 miles to a different Honda dealership. I was greeted at the door and a salesman very attentively walked with me around the showroom, and courteously answered every question I had. I bought a new car from him that very day and paid full price in cash. I have referred several friends to that dealership since then.
I'd have to drive that car up to the other dealership in order to have it serviced and make sure that everybody knew that I didn't buy it from there and why.

Paying full price? I guess he saw you coming.
My favorite kind of customer:snubbed somewhere else. It costs nothing to say hello to people and be polite, even if you aren’t buying the dealership experience is for everyone.

There he bought a BMW 7 Series, the biggest at the time, and drove back to Mercedes. He went inside, to this dealer and said: “I wanted to show you my new car, you asshole. Have a nice day.” I will never forget that day. RIP Dad. Love you.

Years ago, I worked with an amazing salesman. He said that he didn’t visit his clients in a new car or wore an expensive watch. If his clients saw him in the latest model car, new suits etc his clients would think he didn’t needed their business. One of the best bosses I’ve ever had.
Lol. One business consultant told me he drives his older car to visit clients because if he shows up in a new car his clients would start complaining he is charging them too much.
I think it depends of the business. As a management or financial consultant, if you drive looking very well put, they would know that you're having success yourself. They'll love to hire your services.
@@mitsuomits9077 Excellent point!
I also could see the perspective that a businessman/salesman is willing to dress and look their absolute and professional best in front of anyone, no matter who they were and how much money they had. They were gonna dress to impress because that's simply their client/potential client, no matter what. I like that side too, as it also presents it's own form of humility and humbleness. They don't feel they are any better than anyone, it just shows they truly care about just solely looking the part in front of anyone they do business with.
I did exactly the same 20 years ago as salesman selling a 67k$ Lexus. The buyer was an elderly unkept lady entering the showroom wearing old clothes. In the end she said to me I was the only one who treated her fairly.

I knew a young kid back in the early 90s, who worked through high school and saved every penny to buy a brand new car-with cash-before he graduated from high school. He was a nice kid, too. He wanted to do it all by himself, so he didn’t bring his parents. No one would help him, and I think he even got kicked off at least one lot. I guess he got pretty frustrated.
He bought a brand new car from the first lot that actually helped him. He paid, in full, with cash. I don’t remember the details, but I do remember it was $12,000. That was a lot of money for a regular person back then. His sister told me that he made sure to drive by the dealerships that didn’t help him to wave and smile.

That was masterful salesmanship. Malcolm Gladwell once interviewed the most successful car salesman in all of NJ, and asked him what made him that. The guy attributed it to one simple thing: He never judged someone’s financial ability or inclination to buy a car based on the clothes they wore. 🤔💰👌✅
This show is called white Collar
“Nick” is a conman/forger who works for the FBI as a criminal informant. He was pretending to work there while Peter (his handler) questioned Rebecca (the saleswoman) about a case.

@@Elijahrials White Collar Prisoner’s Dilemma S02E07
First month as a salesman at Honda, 2 young women around my age (23) came in to look at a Honda Prologue when it first came out. They were wearing simple gym clothes, hair was messy, looked like they just woke up so my 2 coworkers who were car sales veterans looked straight past them and ignored them. I immediately jumped at the chance to help them (they were pretty attractive, didn’t take much for me to want to help them). I took them on a drive, made them fall in love with the car (and me ;D) and she purchased that day with a $30k down payment and a bunch of accessories on the car (a pretty big commission for me). Later that day the car sales veterans that looked straight past them complained that I took their customer… my manager backed me saying he saw them completely ignore this customer. You never know who you’re dealing with, treat everyone the same and it pays off not only morally but financially 👍
I thought this was gona be a story about how you met your wife or some shit. Made us read a fucking novel just say you married one of them 😂😂😂

This kind of thing is real. I worked for Ford for years as a mechanic. Always liked this one customer who left gifts in his truck or kind notes thanking us for our work. One day I saw him looking at a new Mustang and said none of the salesmen ever took him serious when he wanted to buy one. I asked the manager for the keys to a new GT and explained why I needed to take this customer on a test drive. We went out for all of 5 minutes before he said to go back to the dealership. He bought the exact car we drove and payed in full on the spot. It caused so much drama that they fired two salesmen and I got a two dollar raise. Even after I quit ford I still service that man’s cars.
I sell roofing not cars… had a customer book a appointment that most people say this is person is just white trashing… I showed her what we do for roofing ending up finding out she owned 6 houses on that block she respected me so much she told me just do all 6 houses on scheduling… made a total of 13k in commissions alone and recommended me to her whole family. I learned a lot that day, that the rich don’t wear nice flashy things but rather whatever they want wear
poor people dress to be rich
rich people dont care
theres nothing wrong with buying nice clothes but sometimes just dressing casual is more comfortable
I see so many people working minimum wage jobs who will spend their last penny on designer brands with huge logos. I always say as soon as I see designer clothes I can tell that person is superficial and in fact doesn’t possess anywhere near the amount of wealth they wish to project. Actual wealthy people usually don’t spend crazy money on clothes as it’s one of the dumbest things you can spend money on an item which loses all value the second you wear it and will eventually get holes in it the more you wash it. It beats their logic of reserving wealth to invest rather than finite resources on something so they can project wealth to people they don’t care about.
@@dylanmorgan2752 If you are selling a Lambo, you generally selling to someone superficial who wants to APEAR wealthy and show off. There is no practical purpose for a car like this, its all showing off because your insecure or bored or your trying to make up for something else with the girls.
Most people buying exotics cars are millionaires spending nearly all their money on their cars and house. The actual billionaires don't care about cars and are driving a Prius or Tesla, and they instead show off with planes, yachts and trying to have their own space ships lol. It's all a who can waste the most money on something not needed - impractical contest. It shouldn't be extremely rare anyone spends their extra money helping people vs unneeded luxury that doesn't actually make you happy.
"Wear whatever they want to wear" is one of the more profound insights in this whole comment section.

I’m a luxury car salesman. My way of thinking is, anyone who walks through that door is able to purchase, until they prove they aren’t.
I just KNOW you are an awesome salesman! I have always said that and think every salesman should think that way. I’m a banker and we have a customer who wears ripped, ratty-looking clothes, appears to be homeless, doesn’t drive and walks everywhere, and we often see him walking out of the gas station across the street with food. He has 6 digits in his bank account and doesn’t use a debit card. He always comes straight to me because I’m usually the first one to help him when everyone else seems too nervous to do so.

I went into a dealership once. I really wanted a Nissan 350Z (was 20 years ago, still remember the experience). A salesman approached me, told him him there was no way I could ever afford it (AUD$101k), but the guy still sat me down and walked me through all the options available. Didn't get to test drive it, but it made my day.
I was in a similar situation when I was a young man, except that the salesman turned me away. I never, ever again set foot in the dealership. Their loss

My friends dad wore flannel shirts and coveralls all the time. He retired from the electric company (not sure what he did but i know at one point he worked the lines and poles) and he retired quite nicely. He wanted a volvo. He walked into the volvo dealership and not a single soul acknowledged his existence. He tried to get someones attention several times n no one would help him. He got fed up and left. 2 hours later he drove up in his brand new mercedes he paid cash for. That car had 24 miles on it when he pulled into the volvo lot most of which was the test drive and the trip to the volvo dealership. He pulled up front and 3 salesman came out and he very politely told them that he wouldn't drive a volvo even if they gave him one for free and left. Idk if those guys remembered him or even knew he had been there before but i know he felt amazing after that. Lol i know cause we were riding with him. Lol he talked about it the whole way home
Car salesman in the US just seem like assholes.
I live in Sweden and I followed my father, who's a welder, to Lexus to check out their newest car launch. I was literally in sweatpants since he kinda just called 5min before he left and asked if I wanted to tag along.
The sales staff were very polite and didn't judge anyone. There were about 6-7 people in the showroom and about 3 salesman. They just asked those that were waiting to grab some coffee and snacks and they'll help as as soon as possible. I wasn't planning to buy a new car but I got a pretty good deal on my 4+yr old Corolla($22k on a car I bought for $31k) so both me and my dad bought the new car. His was as a second car.
I bought 5 new cars in my life, a Mitsubishi, a Volvo, 2 Toyota's and a Lexus. I've never had a bad experience and I literally dress in whatever is comfortable. Literally went and bought the Volvo wearing beach shorts, t-shirt and flipflops.
Salesman in Sweden understand very well that if you treat a customer right, they're more willing to buy a car. They don't really care what "kind" of person buys their cars. All money is worth the same and being respectful and polite will bring them back for more.
They also don't try to scam people or try to upsell. Those sales tactics don't actually work on normal people and just puts them off.
When my mom was young, she had a neighbor in St. John NB, who was a fishing boat captain. After a particularly great haul, the captain decided to buy his crew members a car, each. His fisherman attire got him ignored for a while. Finally, a salesman apologized for making him wait and asked what he needed. According to my mom, the captain paid cash for a dozen new vehicles. That salesman made a shitload in commissions. Don't judge a book by its cover and just be polite.

I was working at a Chevy Buick dealer when a homeless guy walked up. No one else wanted to talk to him and so I used my up to say hello. The guy asked if he could look at our 2500 Saburban a rare vehicle. I said sure but it's brand new and asked if he didn't mind using our restroom to clean up a bit so we don't get any dirt on the upholstery. I got some protective coverings for the interior while he used the restroom. After 20 min or so I knocked on the door to make sure he was OK. When he finally came out 40 min later he was wearing a very nice suit with a brief case and a trash bag. He owned an import export company and said every year when he picks up company fleet vehicles he does so dressed like a homeless person and buys all his fleet vehicles at retail to the first sales rep who treats him like a human being and that it was my lucky day. The guy brought 2 suburban 2 Buick park Ave and 5 pick up trucks.

I was 20 years old and just got back from a 15 month deployment from Iraq back in the early 2000s. Of course you save quite a bit of money when overseas. Nothing to buy really. Now looking back I should have invested that money but my young self always wanted a Harley Davidson.
I walked into the dealer and really liked the Soft-tail deluxe with the white wall tires which they had at $21,000 ticket price. The salesman was an asshole who kept pointing me to the used bikes and sportsters who ranged around $8,000. After repeatedly told him I’m not interested and I want the Soft-Tail he asked me who was going to co-sign to finance it. Man was I pissed.
I told him to get lost and get me the manager. Talked to the manager told him that guy is a prick and shouldn’t be here. Bought the bike in Cash at 18,000 out the door. He even through in two leather jackets and two free helmets. For the next 10 years I was king of the road. With my lady who gained a shit-ton of weight in those next 10 years.

Now some of you think I was mean to my wife but to be honest we are straight forward and I’m actually nicer than her family. You ask me what do I mean by that?
Well I’m white and I grew up in the state of Montana. I met my wife when I was in the military out in LA. What I soon found out is that Spanish families like to party and like to talk a lot of shit. My nick name that her family calls me is negrito which means little black guy I think but I’m white. Lol I guess they always go opposite of what it means or something. But I take it as a badge of honor. I feel like if they don’t like you they wouldn’t even talk to you. Which leads me to my wife.
They call her Flaca which means skinny in Spanish even though she isn’t. My point is they all talk a lot of shit. She laughs about it but I think it stings sometimes. But if it stings maybe you should do something about it. But anyways cheers fellas hope you all are doing well! 🍻

I walked into a Jaguar dealership and I was completely ignored. I was a young kid. I had a shirt and tie but clearly cheap stuff from Sears. What they didn't know was that I was there to pick up a brochure for my boss. I picked up the brochure but I also went to the Lexus dealer down the street and got their brochure. Talked my boss into the Lexus instead. It wasn't hard. I was a car guy, I knew what I was talking about: Jaguars were crap then and crap now. And my boss trusted my opinion. Learned so much from working there -including the all important lesson: be nice to the secretaries and assistants -some of them have the boss' ear. As for sales, don't waste your time judging your client's ability to afford your product. That's their problem, not yours. Your problem is to convince him that he can't live without your product/service. A great salesman would have talked the guy into buying the car even if he had to mortgage his house for it.
Left-handed handshake? Nah, unless you are missing an arm, I'm not cool with that

I was a lot guy at a Mercedes Dealership when I was in college. One Saturday a guy in overalls and work boots was looking at a 500 S. I was polishing showroom cars and he called me over and asked what he could get the car for. I looked at the sticker and read it. He said ok, but what do you think I can get it for. I said I saw people ask to throw in tax and registration and they usually are ok. He said 'Deal'. I grabbed my favorite salesman out of their meeting and took him to Leonard Poole, the founder of Fortune 500 Air Products.
He acted like he was a veteran salesman, treated him with better respect than the other real veteran sales people, and that my friends, is why people choose to buy from you! All people want is respect! That's it! Even Rebecca was shocked that Nick was able to close the deal! It was at that moment that she realized that Nicks respect to people is what she herself should be doing more often too! The shocked look on Rebecca's face and the other veterans face was the moment they realized they better shape up their character traits!

My business partner and I purchased a couple of C63 AMG's from Mercedes in late 2018. He dresses in a suit and wears a Rolex while I prefer a hoodie, jeans, and superstars and my much more functional Samsung Galaxy Watch. Naturally the sales guy greets my business partner and not me. Talks to him mostly and not really me. I've worked on cars all my life and naturally had a lot of questions but he mostly ignored them or gave me one word answers. In the end, I walked off and started checking out cars on my own when another sales guy came over and just talked to me about cars... Not even Mercedes.. just modified cars and we talked about what we used to drive etc. later I see the other sales guy walk over to me as my business partner must have told him I was the one to make the final decision on cars and I told him I wanted to work with the second sales guy. We purchased 3 of them... The first guy must have been fuming. Just goes to show you shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

I was like shit they were that loaded. But they prefer to not stand out. I never look at people the same again.

Happened to me, in 2008 went to the Honda dealership to buy the new Accord coupe since mine was totaled I cant even remember how many salesmen walked by me and didnt even say hello. I asked to test drive the Accord they got this African guy that could barely speak English to help me (Im a Black Dominican with an accent) they only had the 4 cylinder I didnt like it because it didnt have enough power so he starts showing me other cars... we go in the showroom and I saw the 2009 Accord 4 door pearl white and I said "just let me have that one I need a car" his eyes were wide open and then asked "you dont want to test drive it?" I said "no". While they were doing the paperwork my wife arrived, I go outside to meet her and I see this brand new S2000 I asked my wife if she liked it and she said yes so I go inside and tell my salesman that I wanted the S2000 too he jumped out of his chair and asked "are you sure?" I said hurry up do the paperwork before I change my mind. You should've seen all the sales people looking like daaaaaammmm he is buying two cars and I just walked by him... I was wearing shorts, tank top and flip-flops 😂 the salesman was so happy he was a new employee too. My wife fell asleep and totaled the Accord and the S2000 has been sitting in my garage since 2016 because we have 3 kids now so we dont fit in it 😂

I once worked with a man that was part owner in a BMW dealership before they sold it. He told me about a heavy set guy who pulled up in an old beat up ford ranger dressed like he was homeless. Every salesperson ran off. He walked up to the guys truck to see what he needed. The guy was dropping off a signed check with no number on it. He said a family member was coming by to pick out a car. Told him to fill in the amount and process the check. Once it cleared, they’d pick up the car. The dude was a multi millionaire who owned farm land turned oil field. Every car deal after that was a house deal and no salesman got any commission 😂

I was once a car saleswoman in Philippines. Knowing Filipinos, they don't wear suits and tie but they still wear polo shirt and pants as formal attire. When a man came in to our car display, he was only wearing white shirt, cargo shorts and a pair of flipflops. Without judging his outfit, I assisted him, told him which car is good for a family, and I'll never forget this interaction. He bought the car on the spot when most people buy it through bank finance. And I will continue NOT to judge people just by their outfit or by how they look.

He looked to be in his 70s; was attired in nondescript clothing; was plain-spoken; and had a somewhat disheveled appearance. My neighbor was collecting basic information from him. When asked his name, he replied, "Norton Simon" (the American industrialist and philanthropist whose net worth at the time of his death in 1993 was $10 billion [$21.8 billion today]). He indeed was the Norton Simon. As the saying goes, one cannot judge a book by its cover.
Actually you can, but there are always exceptions! 🤷♂️
Oh wow. I went to the Norton Simon museum in 1999. Had no idea he was alive in the 80s but I really knew little about him. Thanks for the story.
Dan’s a really good actor. You can see honest emotion in his eyes and reactions . Wonder if Meisner trained
As a salesman, the WORST thing you can do is prejudge a prospective buyer! The other people who work there think this salesman is incredible. He's not. He just gave this prospective buyer the respect he deserves and sold him the car he's always wanted.
And that my brothers and sisters is how you treat people with absolute respect.
Peace, be with you and your families everywhere.
Bless you.
Bless you and yours, too🎉
Exactly, how you treat people 👏
wow amazing how many people agreed to this video.....
The world is full of judging people it seems, awful, thank you for you guys actually doing this, you're hero
White collar was my favourite season alongside Castle,House and Arrow!
As a veteran salesman, you Never pre-judge
Thankyou for your service
That's what my friend's lifelong and very successful salesman father used to say.
"Anybody can afford a $2k suit, shirt, tie, cuff links and a fake Rolex and anybody can afford a pair of $20 jeans and a T-Shirt." "Knowing which one can afford a $1m. house, that's my job, and the only way to do my job is by engaging a potential client, and everyone is a potential client".
He also told the anecdote of his biggest customer turning up to the sale of a relatively modest property in an old van and dressed like a bum. It turned out that the guy was a wealthy property developer and landlord who ended up putting all of his property sales and rental management through my friend's dad's business.
My friend's Dad used to boast that he "made a million dollars in commission selling a $250k house", because of just that one client.
If you looked as good as Matt Bomer, you can sell anything.
Definitely post-judge though!

Growing up, I loved going with my dad to Porsche dealerships bc their cars looked like fun. He always told me not to dress up, and that way, you don't get pressured by every salesperson. It was also fun to go back dressed nicely and see who recognized us. I grew up knowing how much my parents could afford (mentally, I also compared what was on the lot to what we had at home) and I used to snicker when people wouldn't talk to us bc we didn't look like the regular clientele.
My co worker once started working with a lady in sweats that had paint spots all over. She started talking to him about a brand new Maybach. After building the vehicle to her spec her husband called and asked if she was buying it. He also asked if the salesmen pre judge her. She responded with no and was very happy with the service. She left paying cash for 230k on it.
Hopefully wire transfer or card transaction or something. 200k is a lotta dolla.
Also, obscene that someone paid my house for a car
@@michaelsorensen7567 cashiers check.
He waited to check until the car had been custom built?
@@mattk4110 He knew that she was going to build one with the sales person. Once you build a car at Mercedes store you can take it to any location and set the order. She decided to go with my co worker because he did not prejudge. He asked her if he pre judge her based on the outfit she walked in with. She said he didn’t prejudge and the rest was history 😄
White collar was a great show. Some context for those who didn't watch it though: "Nick Halden" (not his real name) is a notorious white collar criminal working with the FBI as an alternative to being in prison. He did not work there. He was ultimately posing as a new hire while Rebecca was gone, so he could get inside her computer for a case. But he's so good at lying and deceiving, the other employees just went with it (which is half the show, lol). Great show, definitely worth a watch.
I will never forget Berry. He was a wonderful sales man. He helped me get my 2nd car ever and a great deal back in 2016. He retired a couple years later.
