Yesterday I participated in an innovative new program being sponsored by Motorweks Mini here in Mini-apolis. I spent about 5 hours at the dealership working with customers, answering questions and demoing minis! It was really exciting to see the amount of enthusiasm people have for our little gems. Some people were placing orders before they even test-drove the car!! It was a great chance to share what I have learned about the Mini and let people know that when they get behind the wheel, they're in for the ride of a lifetime

Is that going to be a career change for ya? Sounds pretty cool.
I think MINI owners here and everwhere are always on the sales person punch clock evertime they go out somewhere. I find I'm always describing the car to someone here there and everywhere. But hey, I don't mind. I'll get $200 from my dealership if I happen to point someone in the right way to acquiring one. MINI-Modding money right there, Yee haw!
Cheers,

I am an unofficial Mini salesperson everyday when I drive my car around and when I stopped for questions which is all the time. I do it for free. What a deal for the dealership.

I don't get much for my efforts and would be lucky to get even $50 finders fee for referring someone to the dealership that ends up buying a mini. $200! a pop, I would get me kids to be out there on weekends with the car in a parking lot if I got that much for each referral.
