What is the worst work ethic you have seen in your dealerships?
One of the biggest challenges and #1 worst work ethic in dealerships isn’t just laziness—it’s the endless distraction of social media. With that said, it’s TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube shorts, salespeople and managers are losing valuable time scrolling through content. These “time monsters” can easily eat up hours without you even realizing it.
Think about it: My son can hop on TikTok after school and lose two hours in a blink. The same thing happens at dealerships. Ultimately, salespeople might think they’re only taking a quick break, but suddenly it’s been hours, and nothing productive has been accomplished. How often do you see this happening?
How can we use it to our advantage?
Here’s a solution that strikes a balance: For every hour you spend mindlessly scrolling, commit to spending an equal amount of time prospecting on social media. Yes, social media can be a powerful tool—if you use it strategically. Spend time creating content, engaging with potential customers, and showcasing your expertise.
As a result, the key is to ensure your time on social media is also an investment, not just entertainment. By adopting this one-to-one rule, you can build your brand, and avoid having the worst work ethic in dealerships.
