THURSDAY. JULY 3, 1958 HERALD ANT) NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON Auto Dealer Needs Money By ROBERT 3ERLING United Press International Think you'd like to be an auto mobile dealer? AH you need is money, a Rood credit rating and a book written by .Martin Bury. Martin Bury is a dealer in Phil adelphia, a dealer with 36 years experience in the automobile busi ness. He's written a book about those years. A book intended mainly for other dealers but of vast interest to anyone who drives a car. Bury writes about every phase ot running a dealership, from how to be a good salesman to the right time of the week for advertising. He's often funny, usually blunt and always educational. He takes you behind the scenes of his own auto firm and talks about trade ins, service policies, prolits, rela tions with the manufacturers and the best chapter of all, some of Sis own experiences in selling cars. Bury tells some wonderful stor ies about his own experiences. . . . Like the time he told a customer over the phone one Friday that the weather was pretty bad, so maybe he should deliver his new car the following Monday. The customer agreed. Bury's sales man ager objected, said the customer could drop dead over the weekend. Bury just laughed. Monday, he delivered the new car. There was black crepe on the customer's front door. Then there's the owner who sent Bury an angry letter complain ing about poor service. Bury asked him to come in and talk it over. Meanwhile, Bury looked up the cus tomer's service record which con sisted of one lubrication job and he hadn't even bought the car rom Bury. The customer showed up and calmly listed all the things that had gone wrong with his car. Bury courteously agreed it was too bad, reminded him he hadn't bought the car there and why was he con plaining? The owner grinned. He explained there wasn't anything wrong with the car, he just wanted to see how Bury handled service complaints. Sequel: He bought a new car from Bury three days later.
