My new little side job...

[Flybrian]

Well, started a new little job on the side this week for a small used car dealership in St. Petersburg. I'm kind of their internet sales guy, taking pictures of the new arrivals and posting them up on Cars.com, Craigslist, etc. and trying to set up appointments for showings. Kinda fun and I must admit the fast-paced dealer environment is a little fun. Again, its a small lot (~25 cars), but it keeps pretty busy with 5-10 new cars in every week. Anyway, just thought I'd share. Here's an example of a listing I put together. Hopefully it makes you want to buy it!

Heh. If anyone is seriously interested in buying a car, let me know and I could work something out.

Why waste your time with that? Ever see this crazy s**t

Good luck with it, seriously, who couldn't use a few extra bucks.

Do you accept GM Employee discounts?

[K.C.]

Congrats Fly. This could be the beginning of big things for you.

Great ad!!! My favourite line is "easy to park dimensions"

[ocnblu]

Agreed, nice copywriting, Mr. Fly.

Did you powerwash the engine bay to make it look like new?

[Intrepidation]

Nice ad, that sounds like a fun job to do, as opposed to dealing with customers in person.

if you're going to take the pics, take out the "thanks for stopping by" floormats before you take the shot

We have a lovely Aztek for you, Reg. No. Not really.

Here's my basic website.

I like the way you presented that Cavalier as a fuel efficient. It's clever in this day and age to do that.

Add Orlando 90 mins.

[Flybrian]

Well, I've sold these lovelies already...

[ocnblu]

So what are you saying... they're... FLYing off the lots? :AH-HA_wink:

Cool.

[bobo]

Good job on peddling the wares. I would imagine there was pretty good interest in that Integra Type R.

[Flybrian]

We tried to sell that Alfa at a local classic car auction; no bids. On the way back to the lot, the front clip fell off. Would've been better if it happened on the stand. Oh well. eBay it goes.

We picked up a '95 300ZX w/out turbos and an '82 Fleetwood Brougham with the infinitely-reliable HT4100. Its triple-yellow and just...well...you'll see pics soon.

Let me know if you come across a 68 Grand Prix, I'm on the hunt for one.

Cool, sounds like a fun gig. Plus the hours are robably much better than the 60+ I was working

as a salesman... at any rate one quick constructive criticism.... that black Cadaver, you only

showed the driver's side in all three photos, next time do the rear 1/4 shot so you can see the

OTHER side of the car. Otherwise people assume the other side looks bad or is damged.

Just speaking from experience. Great job on the listing otherwise.

(it's a Cadaver, take it or leave it)
