Motorbike sales
Discussion
Wondering if anyone might have any experience or advice to give...
Been a car mechanic since I left school 15 years ago and I’m at the point where it’s making me miserable as I really don’t want to work on cars anymore.
There is an advert for the local BMW dealer for a motorbike sales person. I love bikes and also BMW’s. It says no sales experience is needed although I do have some office experience. Only trouble is that it’s quite a pay cut for the basic. Could it lead anywhere? I can’t decide what to do. Any advice greatfully received.

Thanks for the reply, gives me something to think about. It’s hard to leave the only thing you’ve ever known. I’m the sort of person that if I think about something too much I’ll never do it but I know I would be enthusiastic about it.
The main concern is as you said, not meeting targets and being out the door! Out of interest if you don’t mind, how did you make the move out and what did you go into?

To be honest I don’t know much about sales or have any experience.
I just really want to get out of a workshop environment. I’ve spent the last couple of years doing half and half where I work now and this has confirmed it.
There are other jobs in the service department dealing with customers which I think I’d go for first. Just turned 30 so have a long time left to go and concerned I’ll get stuck forever if I don’t make a change soon.

It’s more the fact of not wanting to work on cars anymore, I’ve had enough of it. I’d like to just work on my own cars again for enjoyment.
I know I can talk to customers and talk them through any questions they may have as I feel I have enough knowledge? Plus I’m passionate about BMW’s and always have been.
