Attendee Comments – May ’00 – Portland

“I increased my income by 50% with these techniques. If you want to make 100+ thousand dollars a year selling cars, then do this consistently or you are stupid and will fail. Is that plain enough?”

“It was learning intensive. The good thing about this kind of seminar is that the skills are all applicable to real life. What a gift if someone can learn all of this and then use it in their daily lives! Life is an enjoyable process and leaning this will make it fruitful too. Thank you for the enlightenment!”

Christina Sigwart, Sales/Leasing/Internet (two time graduate) – Rey Reece’s Dealerships

“Great experience. Michael needs to answer more questions with more examples, than which characteristic category it falls under. Great tools for work and life vs. just a motivational event that lasts just a week or two. Thanks Michael, see you next year!”
Chris Dobbs, Sales Manager – Ron Tonkin Honda

“First seminar I ever attended. Really enjoyed interacting with fellow participants. Definitely took me outside my comfort zone! It made me think, really think, about who I am, where I am, where I want to be, and gave me the tools to get there. I will be back again next year to sharpen skills learned today! Thank you Michael!”
Kirk T. Buckler, Sales Executive – Town & Country Mitsubishi

“This is the first class I have ever been to that I wasn’t falling asleep, and I got just a little bit of sleep (last night). I do thank you for refreshing a lot of things and teaching me a lot of things. I also think half the reason I was awake was because it was so cold I could see my breath!”
Gyrone Williams, Sales – Dick Hannah VW

Kris Schneider, Sales – Dick Hannah VW

“I can honestly say that if I don’t apply this knowledge in my present position at Dick Hannah, I will definitely use it in my personal life. I will feel better about myself and it will show with the response from those around me. I returned this pen I secretly borrowed, sorry. Thank you and God bless!”
Josè Ramirez, Sales – Dick Hannah Dealerships

“Michael gave me insights into my life that I’ve missed for years. I’ve been to over 40 sales seminars and this is the BEST! Just wish I had caught the first of the seminar. Couldn’t find the Shilo Inn. Maybe put a map on future tickets? Drove around the airport for at least an hour looking.”
Ken Nix, Sales – Herzog-Meier Volkswagon

“Enthusiasm and excitement sells, I have always known that. Michael Hargrove constantly reminds us to keep that attitude and we will be very successful.”
