Joe Verde Begins Mobile Texting Campaign For Automotive Salespeople
ORANGE COUNTY - Automotive salespeople now have the opportunity to receive sales information directly from the leader in automotive sales and management training, Joe Verde, via their mobile phones.
Verde’s text message alerts will focus on The New Basics™ of selling to today’s customer with practical, ‘how-to’ steps to closing the deal and selling a vehicle now. “My texts are for the serious salespeople in today's new car business who want to sell more units now, and that’s the focus of my text alerts, not what I'm having for lunch,” said Verde, president, Joe Verde Sales & Management Training, Inc.
“My text messages have one purpose: help salespeople generate traffic, close the deal and make the sale today. My tips, advice, info and motivational reminders keep salespeople focused and on track, day in and day out.”
Salespeople and anyone in the car industry interested in receiving texts on their mobile phone from Joe Verde can begin by texting JVTEXT to 86677.
The company does not charge for the service, but message and data rates may apply based on an individual’s carrier texting plan. The program is only available to residents of the United States.
