Salesmen of the Month in May


I've skipped a couple of these in the last few months and a few of you were letting me know that you wanted me to continue posting our best performers. Well, your wish is my command.... Here they are!
Recognize them? Terry Johns, Tom O'tremba and Joel Bechtold are May's top salesman.

So what's it take to become the top guy at a dealership? Since we have roughly 20 guys here, it takes a lot of dedication to become one of the top 3 guys.
One thing I know about all three of these guys is that the are concerned about their customers. I know that each of them works their cell phones as much as the phone in their offices. I've heard on more than one occasion that their customers call them personally. For someone to give their customers their personal phone line just goes to show how serious they take their jobs. It's the extra effort that these guys throw forth that really matters to all of their customers.
This job is really no different than one where they are on call. They get calls at home during dinner hours and all other hours of the day. They take care of their customers and their wives know that it's just part of what needs to happen for them to be successful in their occupation. Being the top guy doesn't mean that they make the most money either. Being top guy means that they do sell the most cars but it also means that they have taken their business to another level. Most salespeople you meet are usually trying to tag along on your bumper when you pull in. Sure, they all get out on the car lot and look for customers but these three spend a lot of time in their office visiting with customers and making phone calls. If you are looking for a salesman that stays at the same dealership then look no further. All three of these guys have been with Archie Cochrane Ford for years! You won't have to worry about buying something and trying to find who sold it to you a couple of months later.

GET IN TOUCH WITH ONE:
Terry Johns
Tom O'tremba
Joel Bechtold

Canadian Customers Buying at Archie Cochrane Ford in Billings,MT



To all of our Canadian Friends that are inquiring on purchasing a new or pre-owned vehicle in the states, the answer is "yes", I can do it. I've been talking to several of you that for some reason have all heard the same story over and over again. For some reason, the Canadian dealers are trying to scare you into not purchasing a vehicle in the States. I have to tell ya, they are right in a lot of aspects but it's only because the dealer that you are talking about doesn't know how to do it.

Here's a little about what you should know.

1. New vehicles from Ford are admissible from us as as long as they have the imobilization device installed. Basically, it's just the key coded key. I'll go into the date of manufacture when you call me.

2. New vehicles such as the S.U.V.'s are subject to your Green Levy taxes. Congrat's, your gov't has taken a lesson from our, or maybe it's the other way around... We call it the gas guzzler's tax. Depending on the vehicle you want, I'll tell you how much it it. You can also find it at http://riv.ca/ REMEMBER this is only on new vehicles! If you are buying a new truck or car, it won't apply. If you want to be safe, just call me and I'll check for you. Pre-owned vehicles are not subject to this freebee for the govt.

3. You'll need an OASIS pulled. An OASIS basically just guarantees that your vehicle is free from recalls. Show me a truck you are interested in, and I'll send it to you. (ALL I NEED IS YOUR VIN)...

4. You'll need a vin release done on our letterhead that passes the border's criteria. Again, I have a template that works.... It was written by a border agent..

5. I need to make sure your headlight's are set to daytime running in order for you to get it through the border.

6. You need to give them 72 hours to process the paperwork.

7. You'll need to pay a fee of around $200 to get the vehicle into your country. It's listed on the http://riv.ca/ website. There's also about another $100 you'll be responsible for since the vehicle has A/C.

8. You'll need your GST number when you get to the border on your end. You'll be responsible for paying your tax.

9. There are a few other forms that we'll take care of for you! Don't worry, it's easy and we can even have the vehicle delivered to the border for you. It' won't cost that much...Consider the savings!

10. We will need to have the title or the MSO so you can show them to the border when you come through.

I WILL HAVE OUR TITLE CLERK SEND ALL OF THE PAPERS TO THE BORDER BEFORE YOU EVEN ARRIVE. YOU WILL HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH THIS TRANSACTION. WE DO IT RIGHT!

WORDS OF ADVICE!

DO NOT BUY FROM A PRIVATE PARTY! They can not provide you with the OASIS report or the vin release like a dealer can. Also, you won't have the opportunity to extend the manufacturers warranty on the vehicle for extra coverage. Our Extended Warranty coverage programs are all good in Canada. Your manufacturer's warranty is good in Canada folks! Regardless of what your local dealer tells you. Get the number for Ford Motor Company in Canada and call them if your dealer tells you it isn't. If they flat out don't want to cover you or do any kind of warranty work, then do you really want to buy from them in the first place? We honor all the manufacturer's warranty from Canada. If you break down in Billings, we take care of you. Should'nt be any different in Canada.

I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

VISIT OUR SITE AT http://billingsford.com/ and tell me what you want. I'll explain everything to you soon.

You can call me directly if you want as well!
