Buying new Car from Branch OR Dealers better?

Are you looking to buy a New car?  Now, many people throwing me this Question:

IS it better to buy From < insert Brand... > Branch or Dealerships?

Well, let me run through the pros and cons and differences from buying with Branch and dealerships.
I am a Hyundai Salesman for a Dealer but I have a friend working in branch (Hyundai Sime Darby Motors).  So we often exchange information...

Here's what I gather...

BRANCH (Sime darby)

Pros:

- Quicker to get car allocations (most models)
- They do QC before delivery (Eg. Alignment and balancing, headlight levelling)
- PRIORITY  for defect claims
- HUGE discounts on "Passport" models only (At the moment it's Elantra and i10)
- Branch salesmen only Hyundai Roadshow at Motorshows, 1 Utama, Mid-valley, KLCC, The Curve
- 1st hand information on Production line (hence more accurate waiting lists)
- 1st to get NEW Trading terms.  Often 1 week earlier (headstart) than Dealers.
- Cars are Paid after SOLD.  So more Varieties/Colors in the Inventory. 
- Got chance to do SPONSORED Roadshows (such as World Cup, Maybank Malaysian Open Golf)
 - Got chance to sell Pre-owned, Demo cars (SO TRUE for HYUNDAI SIME DARBY MALAYSIA)
 - FOR SALESPERSONS: Tied down with Legal Employment contract.

CONS:

- No previous year stock (all passed to dealers)
- less discounts (on other models)
- Less Commission
- Less margin
- Standardized Bonus, leave and Company annual trip/incentives.
- NEED TO WEAR Formal (Long sleeve and tie for guys, Long-sleeve blouse, scarf and skirts for girls) UNIFORM at duty.
- Higher pressure for Sales performance (especially 3S branches)
- LOTS OF POLITICS / Backstabbing / Group-think.
- YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN.  Very little Teamwork, support from other Colleagues.
- TOO MANY SALESMEN (At least 15, up to 25)

DEALERS

Pros:

- ALL cars are PAID with Cash upfront before SOLD
- Therefore, to compensate (get back the cash), Better Discounts and freebies given
- Sometimes faster than branches if they keep OR force to take STOCK.  Eg. CBU Cars.
- Can offer to Submit Loan 1st, only pay Booking upon loan approval
- Can offer to Mark up for full loan
- Previous year (OR 2 years back stock - Kah Bintang) available.  So HUGE Discounts.
- For Salesmen, bigger commissions and margins and better Incentives (with passport models)
- ALSO for salesmen, more hands on Learning experience (ALL ROUNDER), more things to learn.  Cause everything Salesmen do.  Eg. Puspakom inspection, JPJ registration, collect AP from HQ.
- NO Politics,  LOTS OF TEAMWORK!  Cover 1 another, help one another.
- Less Hassle/formalities in Transactions VS Branches.  Eg. No need Wear tie and long sleeves.  Flexible Annual leave.  LESS FORMAL or NO EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT.
- Less salesmen.  Average 7 only.


CONS:

- No Pre-delivery QC
- Slightly more difficult for Defects claims.
- for Salesmen, Only "small scale" roadshow allowed.  As Major roadshows only Branches can do
- Lots of disappointments in Delivery date cause no access to Production line.
- Slightly higher mileage (for CBU cars)
- Sometimes slow selling cars HQ forced Dealer to take (in exchange with HOT Selling cars)
- Selling "While stock lasts".  "Sell what we have".
- Trading terms and promotions we were always 1 week behind Branches.


CONCLUSION: It's NOT Branch or dealers that matters.  It's SALESPERSON Services.  It's our JOB to guide you/ make you feel comfortable to buy your NEW Car.  Some salesmen I know DO Provide DOOR TO DOOR Service.  1 salesman (HYUNDAI ADVANT SPEED MOTORS) even do the FOLLOWING EXTRA MILES:

1)  Collect car from Client's house or office, drive to service centre and return to Client office. 
2) Helped Client to renew Roadtax and insurance and Deliver to their Doorstep.
3) And many more...  Salesmen Extra miles service. 

That's all folks, thanks for having the time and patience to read this blog entry.

  7. The dealership known as buy here pay here doesn’t only sell cars of your choice but they act as the bank too. If you aren’t familiar why, they provide in house financing used carto people who have no other choice but to turn to buy here pay here because usually, they are most likely declined by banks and car loan companies because of their pending credit card balances, missed payments of mortgages, repossession and the like.

  35. People tend to treasure their cars almost as much as their home. Owning a vehicle can be a job in itself. You are forced to worry about having to maintain the vehicle, by having basic under the hood repairs done, and you are also forced to worry about the aesthetic appeal of the vehicle as well. When it comes to working on the outer surface of your vehicle, there are two different options that a driver has. You can choose to have a paintless dent removal service performed on your vehicle to fix its outer layer imperfections, or you have the option of having traditional body shop work done. https://redhotdistributors.com/

  64. Before making a final choice, it is important to consider all of your available options for buy car online and to be aware of any potential drawbacks. Although buying a car from a dealership is the most common way to do so when browsing for a vehicle on the internet, doing so can be laden with risk even though it is the most common means of doing so. Even while there are some protections in place to prevent fraud when buying a car from a private party on the internet, the process is not risk-free in all cases. When looking to purchase a vehicle on the internet, the most reliable resource is an online auction platform.

  68. Deciding between buying a new car from a branch or a dealership can be a challenging decision. Both options have their advantages and considerations, and it ultimately comes down to personal preference and specific circumstances.

    When considering purchasing from a branch, one of the main benefits is the direct interaction with the manufacturer. Buying from a branch allows you to get firsthand information about the vehicle, including its specifications, features, and any current promotions or discounts. Additionally, branches often have a wide selection of vehicles available, giving you more options to choose from.

The hassle-free towing and paperwork service they offer truly made the entire process effortless. Not only did they promptly tow away my old car, but they also took care of all the necessary paperwork, saving me valuable time and energy. If you're looking to get rid of your old vehicle without any hassle, I highly recommend taking advantage of Botany car removal services. Trust me, you won't regret it after referring here.
