How To Get Sales Manager Email

Hi, I’m in SoCal and I’ve been going on dealer websites looking for Sales/General Manager emails as suggested in a lot of threads on this site.

But, I’m not getting anything. It looks like a lot of other people have had this issue as well, but I haven’t found a solution.

So, the question is: if the ideal scenario is emailing an offer to the sales manager, then how is everyone getting those people’s emails? (please don’t say contact us/about us as none of the websites I’ve visited have that info in those sections)

Thanks in advance. Sorry if I missed another thread that covered this.

This was actually suggested?

Many stores are taking down sales manger’s email addresses.

If YOU want to email a sales manager because you think it will get YOU a better deal, what if EVERYONE does that? What is the point of sales staff?

Yep! It was actually recco’d.

This is actually what I was thinking, and am wondering if that method is dead. But, the internet sales reps that get the email from the boilerplate contact us form, just ignore what you wrote essentially. It’s weird.

That boilerplate is automated in most cases. It lowers the “response time” metric.

Use the sales rep email to guess the Sales Manager or GM email. I usually try to work with the sales person first, however I’ll send out the email to the GM or SM if it’s not going anywhere, especially near the end of the month.

lol of course

I just respond to the automated response with the same offer I originally submitted. 2nd time will usually do the trick.

TBH looking for something that’s not readily available is a waste of your time.

And I don’t even think it matters that much. My last negotiation started off emailing the SM who passed me off to a salesperson who got everything done.

Sounds like the GM/SM just need to get an AI chatbot to respond on their behalf to punt inbound queries to some BDR or Sales Associate.

I feel like 50% of car sales is AI Chatbots nowadays.

I wish it rose to that level.
