I had a decent year and hit 11 of 12 monthly top tier CSI performance bonuses. I'll be right around $75k this year. A large shop with a decent customer base should have you making $60-80+.

I get no salary and take a $600/wk draw against my commission. I'm paid either 7, 9 or 10.5% off my gross profit after discounts and fuckups, depending on where my 3 month CSI average ends up.

Pay plans vary from dealer to dealer. Some pay off the shop total, some off individual writer's work/hours sold. Some (like mine) can base the pay off CSI surveys so a bad survey (bad is considered anything under 90.5% average) can affect me to the tune of $1200-1800 a month.

Getting to the point where you're on the main shop side of things is the harder part, though. It took me 2-3 years of working in express maintenance and accessory sales to prove myself making $40k to get where I am now.

It's hard to end up on the main shop side with no experience unless you know an owner or service director.

Might get you in if a position is open, but you'd be expected to be pretty turnkey.

Also, don't do this because you "like cars" and you're an enthusiast. You need a high tolerance for people's whiny bullshit.

Working from home and took the morning off to hang with my gf because she's done for the year.

All I really have to do is update some insurance paperwork and I'm done with work for the day/year.

Drove the :poorvette:

Finished Christmas shopping.

Got free tickets to the Panthers game Saturday.
