With seven movies in <\/span>The Fast and the Furious<\/em> franchise, I\u2019m guessing you\u2019ve seen at least one. I wouldn\u2019t say they\u2019re my favorite, but I do own them all. (<\/span>Don\u2019t judge.<\/em>) It was one of first mainstream movie series that really went into the car culture with any sort of accuracy. Not that they’re completely accurate by any means, but they\u2019re about real cars with real aftermarket companies shown.<\/span> And when I watch certain scenes, I can\u2019t help but see hidden sales lessons.<\/span> This week, I wanted to share three quotes in particular that make me think about how and why I sell:<\/span><\/p>

  1. \u201cIt\u2019s not how you stand by your car; it’s how you race your car.\u201d<\/strong> In context, this is exclusively talking about racing cars. Out of context, I\u2019d argue that this applies to sales. Standing by your car is like standing next to a list of sales you\u2019ve made. Sure, it\u2019s cool to have a mile long list to show how many people you can sell something to. But after a while, you\u2019ll likely run out of people willing to fork over their money. Racing your car is when you\u2019re performing your job. When you put in the work to hone your craft and take challenges head on, you become one of the best. Your skills lead to admiration. Admiration earns respect. Respect opens the door to friendship. With that friendship, your list of possible customers can be endless.<\/li>
  2. \u201cThis isn\u2019t a junkyard. It\u2019s a garage.\u201d<\/strong> This quote makes me think about how to treat people that I meet, whether an old friend, new customer, or someone I know I\u2019ll never see again. Maybe my imagination stretches things a little bit, but bear with me here. Your business isn\u2019t a junkyard, filled with pieces of scrap that you just want to sell and then forget about. Your business is a garage. Being a car guy, this word has a deep meaning to me. A garage is like a holy sanctuary where everything is appreciated and valued for what it is. A seemingly small part can make or break a car – or a sale. A customer comes to a garage looking to buy something that they really need. A garage owner sells not just an item or a fix, but a key to a very important part of that customer\u2019s life \u2013 whether a means to get to work and back or a nightly cruise with clear skies, music blasting, wind blowing, and nothing but an open road. Treat what you sell as more than a transaction.<\/li>
  3. \u201cDo I even want to know where the Skyline is?\u201d<\/strong> This line refers to a Nissan Skyline \u2013 the R33 being one of my dream cars. Someday, I hope to continue to professionally grow and become a successful salesman with an R33 in my own garage. What pushes you might not be a car, but I\u2019m sure you have something in your mind as a goal. Define your Skyline and figure out how you\u2019ll earn it.<\/li><\/ol>
