Joe Verde Releases Pocket-Sized Weekly Planning Guide
Joe Verde Group released a pocket-sized Weekly Planning Guide (WPG) designed to allow salespeople to quickly record prospect contact info, log sales and keep appointments.
ORANGE COUNTY, Calif. — Joe Verde Group released a pocket-sized Weekly Planning Guide (WPG) designed to allow salespeople to quickly record prospect contact info, log sales and keep appointments.
“If you don’t learn much about selling and just hang around, wait for an ‘up’ and wing it every day, you’ll end up putting in brutal hours, and selling cars will be one of the lowest paying, toughest, and most frustrating jobs you’ve ever had,” Verde said. “But when you organize your day, you’ll immediately start selling more units and earning bigger paychecks and spend less time doing it.”
The WPG also serves as a weekly ‘on the lot’ companion to Joe Verde’s Monthly Planning Guide (MPG) and his Web-based automotive CRM, the Virtual Sales Assistant (VSA).
“I spent five years struggling to average eight units a month, quit, took two years off, then learned how to sell and manage my career in sales,” he said. “When I started selling cars again, I sold more units and earned more money in just seven months than I had sold and earned in my first five years combined.”
Verde added that the planning system he developed in those years – which ultimately became the VSA, MPG and the new Weekly Planning Guide – was the key to his success selling cars.
