I am 41 years old been in sales for over 25 years working at my dad‘s dealership off and on. these dealerships that sell equipment once your business do not seem desperate go in there with confidence go to multiple dealers compare have them give you a quote and then take that quote to the next dealership and tell them to beat it and then tell them they offered me 30 to 60 days no payment if they say they cannot help you with that. Tell them we’ll ask the finance company if this is possible that’s what the other dealership did remember it is not up to the guy that’s selling you. It’s who he is financing through equipment is not flown off the shelves right now just like everything else in America is very slow. it is a lot easier to get financed for equipment than it is a car. Because they look at that piece of equipment like an asset and you’re going to make money with it remember go to multiple dealers don’t be stuck on one brand beggars cannot be choosers and then tell them that the other dealership offered you better warranty if they could match that a good salesman will fight and try to get you the best deal. Also try to go to the bigger cities there they have a lot more leeway because they sell a lot more equipment with the finance companies. If you can get into a piece of equipment with 30 to 60 days, no payments that gives you time to book enough jobs and not feel the pressure Here’s some tips Tell each cell person I can’t decide between cat or case both of y’all give a good bargain and tell him to explain to you why you should pick his equipment over the other Don’t make a decision right than in there have them explain everything to you act dumb Just go in there and tell them I am looking for a mulching skid steer and have them explain everything to you the less you say the better Let your sales person or Dealer whoever you are talking to know that you are shopping around and going to check out other pieces of equipment Most cells reps want to run your Credit right away do not let them do that make them work for it

Good evening hope everybody’s having a blessed day. Just wanted to share what I got going on. I did my website on open. AI did not spend a dollar got approved for a brand new skid steer and mulcher with 60 days no payment and a 72 month zero interest which will keep my payments around $2000 a month. I’ve been doing a lot of research all online trying to keep my overhead as low as possible. I own a Semi truck so I’m going to use that and a gooseneck trailer to haul my equipment around when times are slow. I will jump in my truck and make money. The only reason I have not pulled the trigger as I’m trying to pay off all my credit cards so I am debt free when I start this and I have no overhead. If I am on the road, my wife will be helping me. She’s a good sales person. I know the first couple of jobs we probably are going to mess up on the quotes but we will live and learn. I read most of everybody’s comments trying to learn I really appreciate it.
