Come see what you're missing.
We're looking for someone who already has a job. Yes, you read that correctly.
If you're currently selling vehicles at another dealership, doing well, have customers who ask for you by name, and aren't actively looking for another job… you're exactly who we want to talk to.
Because this isn't really a job posting. It's an invitation to find out if there's a better place to sell cars. We're not going to bore you with a list of 17 "duties and responsibilities." You know the job: work your leads, follow up, build relationships, sell cars, take care of people after the sale. We're looking for someone who's already proven they can do it.
Automotive retail has somehow convinced people that being good at selling cars requires practically living at the dealership. We don't buy it.
At Turpin Kia, our salespeople work five days a week. Yes, you work every Saturday, but Saturday ends at 3 PM. And you'll have another day off during the week. When 5 o'clock comes around during the week, you have a life outside the dealership. Dinner at home, your kid's game, the gym, golf--whatever you want. We just don't believe exhaustion should be part of the compensation plan.
[X] Corporate buzzword bingo
[X] "We're like one big family!" plastered all over a job ad
[X] A manager explaining that another 60-hour week is just "the car business"
[X] A revolving door where new salespeople are constantly thrown onto the floor
[X] Someone standing over you reminding you to do the basics of your job
[✓] A locally operated dealership & strong Kia lineup
[✓] A 5-day work week (Weekday hours 9--5 | Saturdays 9--3 | Sundays OFF)
[✓] Management that understands the car business & respects professionals
[✓] An environment where strong performers have room to perform and build a book of business
You don't need to tell your manager. You don't need to announce you're job hunting. Come in, ask about the pay plan, traffic, inventory, and management. If what we're offering isn't better? Stay where you are. No hard feelings.
