The Porsche Centre Calgary Sales Team | Shared Commission Structure

[@HawkEurope]

I really like your openness and I hope more dealers would do the same (both concerning openness and the compensation structure). This compensation structure turns competition into colleagues.

[@Lavillion.]

It is really nice that insted of competing with each other they are competing together as a team to beat their own record. It seems like everyone enjoys their job. This might be less money for some high sellers but it lets you relax use vacay time and work less knowing your co workers got you and you got them.

[@OfficialPorscheCentreCalgary]

We couldn't agree more, thank you for watching!

[@Lavillion.]

@@OfficialPorscheCentreCalgary yeah if only I hadn’t moved from Alberta I would apply to work with this team. Seems way friendlier and warmer to work there instead of the past dealerships I have worked 😅

[@OfficialPorscheCentreCalgary]

Thank you for the kind words for our team.

[@GT1Zero]

Hello gents. I hope you are all doing well. I have a question. What are any skills or qualities that you can share with me that would make a good salesperson, specifically at Porsche. Is there any specific schooling you recommend or is it mostly things you learn on the job.

[@OfficialPorscheCentreCalgary]

At Porsche Centre Calgary, our sales associates take great pride in their ability to speak confidently about our products, they understand the sales process, and offer a level of customer service unlike anyone else. Our team is empowered to make decisions individually and collectively. We would encourage someone that is interested in this career to be enthusiastic, personable, and have strong organizational skills. Sales experience in the automotive industry or even another industry that sells high end goods is mandatory. One of the most important tasks that one can offer is to be persistent and respectful when following up with their clients. This can be done more frequently with a new buyer, or even regularly with a long-term customer. If you’re looking to obtain a degree or diploma that would set you up well for this career, there are specific automotive programs in Calgary, AB and Barrie, ON. Otherwise, a generic business, marketing, or finance program would be of great value.

[@GT1Zero]

Thank you so much for the detailed response. Greatly appreciate it!

Great video and love the inclusion of the out-takes. Your system of operation is fascinating and I wish that was something available when I made a purchase.

[@EC-pf7rs]

Is there an issue if someone is not selling as much as the other and is perceived as dogging it but still shares the pot?

[@coltonteichroeb]

Hi Eric. No, that hasn't been an issue. We are very selective when making new hires to make sure there is a level of competency and a good fit in terms of personality. Fitting into the dynamics of a team and structure like ours isn't easy for everyone and particularly not for many salespeople who are used to working for themselves in a more traditional commission environment. Our additional roles also help fill in the gaps. Its common that one or some of us have not sold as much as others in a given month, but that is made up by doing more of the supplementary work that in the end supports sales as well.

[@davidzhao8416]

Love how the commission is set up. Would love the opportunity to join the team.

[@jaygomboc]

Well done. Great group

[@coltonteichroeb]

Thanks Jay.

[@JeLifeCoach]

I think this method will always yield the highest result. it’s just about having the right people to see it through. Update 5 years later?!

[@OfficialPorscheCentreCalgary]

We are still utilizing the same structure, Thank you for watching!

[@JeLifeCoach]

@@OfficialPorscheCentreCalgary awesome to hear!

[@emersonperin4109]

What a great team! I'm in the US and I only wish my large metropolitan center had a dealership like yours! Makes me want to buy another 911.

[@stevegaspar]

Great insight you all provide!

[@brianhimmelman420]

Great videos ... true professionals ... question ... how many GT3 Tourings have you sold ? Cheers

[@coltonteichroeb]

Thanks Brian. We sold 3 GT3 Tourings. Most of our customers opted for the wing. All allocation for that model has been given out, so we won't be getting any more. They are a pretty rare thing. Its too bad there aren't more of them out there. That's my favorite GT model of the last few years.

[@Axel.gualda]

@@coltonteichroeb loved this video. Is there any way i can get in touch with you?

[@SteveMont]

Are y’all still doing the same structure with y’all’s commissions?

[@OfficialPorscheCentreCalgary]

The Team has changed since then, but the structure is still in place. Thank you for watching!

[@mrabcd3819]

Why porshe is a loveable desired car

[@OfficialPorscheCentreCalgary]

Thank you for watching!

[@TheDougSpot]

That is absolutely horrible, and promotes laziness and resentment among colleagues. I can almost guarantee that they’ve abandoned that commission structure by now

[@OfficialPorscheCentreCalgary]

Still going strong, Thank you for watching!
