  1. Sorry, mate. Forgive me if I am wrong. But if you see everything is winding up. Then you are living in your windup world. If you see everything true, you are living in your true world. It doesn't matter if you believe it or not. I just trying to share my stories. Because of this forum, all the friends here, are all real and true. Thank you very very much!
  2. Can't say secret. But I do have a little detail not told in the previous threads. This pitch I am training is the pitch I am taking over. So, I am being trained on my own pitch! I never know the old gentleman before last Saturday. I just know the sublandlord, and talk to the sublandlord directly. Until last Saturday I went there to see the pitch, the old gentlemen were there and he came to me. He came to me and learn that I am the next new guy, and he found out I am totally brand new to the car trade, he is so worried about me. Then he offers me free training before he goes. He is trying to pass all his knowledge and relationship to me!! Then, today, he even helps me to renegotiate the terms with the landlord! The rent 5K less, lease now become 1 year rolling and 3 months deposit because of his help today! Right after the lease deal made. He started to bleed a lot from his mouth and nose just in front of me. I saw him in such a bloody health situation! I went to the hospital, his hands, face and chest are all boods. When he see me, he still asking how I feel the business today, am I happy with the deal!?. What a bloody cars business!! Really bloody!! Thank GOD. He is better now!!
  3. I really feel it's not about how many cars I sold. Cars will be sold, don't worry about that. It's all about people, and how interesting life is. Thank GOD! Thank you all of you! Dinner time! Don't even have a chance to eat lunch yet! Hungry!!
  4. I am in the hospital now. The old gentlemen suddenly blooding a lot and can't stop at all! We called the ambulance and finally get him to the emergency department. He blooded about one litre I guess! So, today, the first day in a pitch, really into the bloody car business today. Unforgettable!
  5. Understood. The cars not there yet. I just go there by myself to chat, there really nothing need my hands! The gentlemen just introduce his coworker and friends to me. By the way, my roadside pitch will opens on 1st Feb, the deal made with the landlord today. I got a great deal I think. Very lucky!! I have to prepare for my pitch ground opening! A lot stories to tell you guys later!
  6. We have not even though about this. He just simply invited me to work with him for two weeks, and he suggested I could bring my cars and try to sell them on the pitch. No need to think too much. I first met him on Saturday afternoon, and we reached this appointment in just 15 minutes. Take it easy. Like Bob Dylan song said: Don't think twice, it's all right! I am heading to the pitch now. Thanks mate. Too many if. A life full of uncertain. Don't think twice, it's all right!
  7. I could imagine it would be some trouble by sharing the place. Buy the location really not bad. Full of cars lining up at the car wash today when I stop by to take a look there. I imagined putting a big ad board in front of the car wash waiting area.
  8. I suppose to go there tomorrow. But the gentlemen called me this morning and let me get to the pitch to have a chat, and see how he deal with customers. Very nice, the first day on the pitch.
  9. I tend to assume everyone I met is a good man. Yes, I did get lost sometimes because of that. But most of the time got a good result.
  10. Got it. I will have something as a return for his help.
  11. Thank you mark. Your offer is the best fair offer. Thank you! I will bring some good drinks.
  12. Yes, correct. That sounds unbelievable. But I feel he is an honest old man. So I accepted his help and give it a go.
  13. He asks me nothing. He said he just wants to help me. No charge, unconditional. His is 75 years old by the way. He doesn't use a smartphone or computer. Everything is old school style.
  14. Sorry. Bring, not break. Sorry. Input mistake. Bring, not break. He just offers me to park the cars in his pitch, and I have to sell them by myself. Because his cars are under 5K price point. Mine are over 5K. I will keep my keys and customer pay me directly if any sold. There will be no sell if I am not there. So, basically, it is a chance to work together with an old school trader for two weeks to get the feeling to work in a roadside pitch.
  15. I met an old gentleman who is currently running a small roadside pitch. He offers me to bring my cars to work with him side by side for two weeks. So, he is willing to train me by selling my own cars in his pitch. I feel wow! Very lucky today! I am going to bring the cars there next Monday.
  16. Understood. There is one more thing that pitch attracts me. It combined with a hand car wash which owns by the sublandlord. We will share one building, he uses the main house, I will use the office. There are approximately 100-150 cars come to the car wash daily. The customer just waiting in or in front of the office. I am thinking that could be the potential buyer or seller. I have to visit the site tomorrow to get more feeling!
  17. What an interesting world! The roadside pitch sublandlord offers me 6 years lease with 3 years breaks clause, 3 months deposit only this time. Because I told him I got the unit deal, so today he changes his mind and gives me this offer. I have to give an answer next Monday. That will be a struggling weekend!
  18. You are right! Three of them are advertised from two days ago. And another one on hold. And looking for pick up one more today.
  19. Thank you so much! Will do, everything will be all right (I hope) even with a little mistake on the way. Thank you! This is a brilliant idea!
