Dominick Volpe
Dominick has been in the auto industry in one capacity or another for well over 20 years. He began his auto career working in sales at a high-end pre-owned store in St. Louis before transitioning to a Honda store. He eventually moved to the East Coast and continued his sales career at a local Honda store. He soon moved into the finance office where he found his comfort zone and worked there for a few years before he was recruited as a Finance Director at a prestigious Mercedes-Benz dealership. He continued there for a number of years until he was recruited by iTapMenu. |
"Since implementing the new menu on my iPad I have increased my Per Copy Average by $600 this month! The natural flow of adding the bundled product with the service contract came so natural when presenting. We are also an extremely heavy cash store and the training, ideas and forms that were provided to me have helped increase selling a service contract to at least 60% of my cash deals. Due to the training I received from Monte I have felt more comfortable presenting the products and using the iTap menu."
