Automotive Sales Consultant

You are the best server on the Friday shift, the phone-store rep who hits quota by the 20th, the furniture closer capped at $50K, or the car salesperson buried on a 12-person floor with thin inventory and a pay plan that changes every January. Jim Taylor Auto Group has two ways into this job and we are honest about both. EXPERIENCED CLOSERS: bring your numbers and we will show you ours — three stores, three brands, real lead volume, a desk that wants to say yes, and a pay plan in writing. NEW TO THE BUSINESS: we hire attitude and work ethic a few times a year into a development track with a trainer, a mentor, and a salary while you learn — but you will be screened hard for hustle. Tell us your track up front; pretending to be the other one wastes everyone's time.

Pay, in plain English: $2,500 a month salary, every month, plus commission per unit starting at your 5th unit — and the per-unit amount climbs as you sell more. At 10 units in a month you earn about $4,900 ($58,800 a year pace). At 15 units, about $7,900 ($94,800 pace). At 20 units, about $12,400 ($148,800 pace). On top of that: $50 for every financed deal and $50 for every LDS warranty from your 5th unit on, a $500 fast-start bonus for 6 units by the 12th, and Salesperson of the Month pays $400 (first) and $200 (second). Plan in writing before you start.

Who this role is for — read before applying

• Experienced track: 2+ years commissioned sales AND numbers you will share on our first call (we verify)
• Development track: proof of work ethic — two jobs, athletics, military, restaurant weekend doubles, anything that shows you out-work people
• Evenings + Saturdays, every week
• Clean, insurable driving record
• You can live in a CRM and a text thread all day without being told

It helps if you also bring

• Dealership experience with any of our brands (Chevrolet, Buick GMC, Ford) · VinSolutions or DriveCentric · a network in Ouachita, Richland, or Lincoln parish that already trusts you · Spanish

• Every lead logged, every follow-up done, every appointment confirmed
• Your own business: referrals, repeat customers, service-lane introductions, your social presence
• Deliveries done right and followed up, until customers ask for you by name
• Honest selling — LMVC and FTC compliance is graded, not suggested
