J&J Automotive Sales Case Study
J&J Automotive Sales Case study
Thursday, April 22, 2010
1. Explain how you think the stereotype of used car dealers developed. I think it developed through salesmen who lie or do not tell the real condition of the cars they sell. they would tell there clients that the car is in perfect condition and they make sure that the client is convince, but the truth is that the product has problems but they wouldn't know. then they would fake warranties and end up fooling the clients.

2. What, if anything can Joe do to counter this stereotype? i would strongly recommend that Joe concentrates on building his brand as a quality used car company and market himself as a guy who has a lot of passion and really takes good care of everything he sells, then tell customers specs that other salesmen wouldn't know. i think that would be an edge that's hard to match.

3. In what ways might this stereotype be beneficial to Joe? To potential customers? it would be beneficial for him because he has talent and passion for the cars that other salesmen do not have, so clients or customers would find it easy to distinguish him from other salesmen, that would a great edge, because it was based on trust, quality, and integrity. so even if Joe raises the price a little bit, people will still buy from him.

4. AutoNation is #93 on the 2003 Fortune 500. it has created a huge business by exploiting the public. (sir, not complete question will just give thoughts) i think J and J has a big potential because of its quality control and it has a big potential to become a big company in the future. in my opinmion, all joe has to do is create a management and a quality control system for the used cars.

    JC Penney's Case Study

    I use to work for JC Penney's a few years back. JC Penney's was definitely affected by the technology/digital age. They were pretty well know for their "catalog" department. Of course, the internet took care of people needing to go into the stores to place catalog orders, so JCP had to shut down their catalog departments. It wasn't doing well there for a while, the look was "old school". Macy's at the time was coming in taking over Kaufman 's in the malls, putting the pressure on JCP. JC Penney's had to re-model a bunch of their stories, to keep up with the "new" modern look.…

    Gender And Automobiles: Gender Stereotypes

    The majority of women chose the man with the luxury vehicle compared to the other guy with a standard/ typical car. This is a great example of how a vehicle will represent an overview of the man behind the wheel. A man who drives a luxury, expensive car signifies traits such as stability, security and success which are highly desirable traits in men. There is also the belief that our cars are an extension of ourselves in a way to express ourselves and abide by the gender rules. By driving a classy luxury car can heavily influence someone's self confidence and obtain opportunities to socialize with others who share the same status symbol/lifestyle. Some men who prefer to drive fast sports cars may be viewed, perceived as aggressive and tough in a sense. There are many times were young adult males will often coincide with trying to find their identities by the car they drive and what that…
