Not my style of music. A young man I took a chance on a few years back sent me an email with a link to his newly released video. Kenneth (stage name Endr Won) was from the mean streets. Father incarcerated, Mother druggie, etc. Wanted to straighten himself out. Applied to sell cars. Something about him appealed to me and I hired him. He wore long sleeve shirts to cover his tat sleeves and did a phenomenal job.

Met a young lady who was in nursing school, married had a child and never gave up his dream to be a Christian rapper and work as a drug/alcohol counselor. He is doing both in California. Proud of him, just wish he woulda picked country or rock oldies! hahaha..

Nice story, Mick!
Morning, Lou.

My Dad had bought the CL-350 to ride on his 30 mile commute. Mom didn't like the idea too much and I ended up riding it more than he did.

Mornin, Lou. The 6 AM opening is a good idea. As Larry says....You can't drink all day unless ya start early.

Good morning Woodmeisters from a Friday commute check-in.
Mick, I always felt the automotive selling environment was "unique" in some ways yet the basic tenants usually underlie most sales activities.
If you had to pick one common element that you saw amongst your successful salespeople, what was it?
I know you have devoted an excellent website to this subject matter but I'm curious your gut level comment this morning.
