For Immediate Release – November 30, 2009

The First Comprehensive Guide to Selling Vehicles Online Just Released

Berkeley, California, USA – L. James Johnson has announced that his new book, HELP! I Gotta Sell My Car – New Rules for Selling Your Vehicle Online! has just been released for download at www.BayAreaCarGuy.com.

Johnson describes HELP! NOW! as combining his New Rules for selling vehicles online with time-honored Best Practices from the car industry. He developed the New Rules while an Internet Manager for a major car dealer. The New Rules were designed to help dealers and private sellers move beyond Old School sales and marketing tactics that hinder attempts to use the Internet effectively when selling cars, trucks, and SUVs.

Johnson says, “Dealers benefit the most from the New Rules because many simply don’t understand that a new approach is needed to use the Internet effectively.” He goes onto say, “Private sellers will use both the New Rules and the car industry’s Best Practices for pricing cars, handling inquiries, performing a vehicle walk around, staying safe during the test drive, and negotiating price, to name a few.”

L. James Johnson joined the car industry late in life after a successful career in radio and TV Journalism. He later owned and operated three businesses simultaneously. Within six months of joining the car industry he attained top sales status. He had one of the highest Consumer Satisfaction Index (CSI) ratings in the district - above national average. After advancing to Internet Manager, James drew heavily on his experience in both business and Journalism to perfect the New Rules of selling cars online, which led to the publication of HELP! NOW!

This is the first time that a comprehensive A through Z guide to selling a car or truck online is available to car dealers or private sellers.

The Video Walk Around

The Walk Around Video

The video walk around is the secret weapon that brought me serious customers when I was an Internet Sales Manager for a major auto dealer. It was rare for someone to make a long drive after viewing a video walk around and NOT buy the car. The video and your prior conversations will make the sale. Buyers usually make the trip to simply confirm the details and pick up the car.

HELP! I Gotta Sell My Car NOW!

Use the video walk around examples on my website at BayAreaCarGuy.com/video, in conjunction with my book, HELP! I Gotta Sell My Car NOW! where I provide a step-by-step guide on how to create your own effective walk around (a great selling tool for so many reasons!) that may also make you a star on YouTube!

In HELP! NOW! I teach you how to:

  • prep your car
  • find a location
  • the equipment you’ll need
  • how to script your walk around – including what features to SELL
  • how to create a general video for everyone
  • how to create a video for a specific buyer
  • the mechanics of shooting your video
  • how to upload to the Internet
  • much more

Creating your own video walk around and posting it on YouTube is both fun and easy. Want to see what one looks like? View my video walk around examples by visiting the Video page at BayAreaCarGuy.com.
