ATTENTION: All Business Owners in the Automotive Industry
How To Make Multiple 6-Figure PayDays in the “Upgrade and Trade” Automotive Industry without Discounting the Value of Any of Your Vehicles or Inventory, no matter what its condition is.
From the Desk of William McCollum,
Branson, Missouri,
September 2020.
Dear friend,
Do you know the story about the kid who started with a red paperclip and traded it up 14 times until he got a house?
Though it took him only 14 trades, it took him more than 2 years to get from One Red Paperclip on his desk to a House in Canada which was barely 6-Figures at the time of the trade (and he didn’t sell it, he just traded up)
In the “Upgrade and Trade” model, the work is more, even 10 times harder, but you get multiple 6-figure Paydays in the same year.
That is the Goal (I will tell you how to achieve the same in a moment)
The “Upgrade and Trade” industry has been inspired by many people only because there has always been a demand because
More Than 40 Million Refurbished Used Cars Has Been Sold In The Us In 2019 Alone
And it’s growing.
In the business of Used Car, trading up for a car with minimal work and selling it double the price of your investment is a common practice in the industry.
One of the famous Car Restoration Masters, Mark Towle, Owner of Gotham Garage has just released his second season on his hit show “Car Master - Rust to Riches” on Netflix.
In the first season, he showed how he got 6-Figures income by just working for a few months, including the ups and downs that came with the business.
While in the Second Season, he and his crew gave themselves multiple 6-figure paydays, and massive recognition almost at the same time.
The idea is simple...
Start With Something Worth $500 Or $1000 To Make That 6-Figure Payday
The game that Mark played was that they would always start with something that cost around $500 to $1000 and turn it into a Cool Car.
They took that cool car and traded it for a Higher Valued Car of the same value but needing some work.
They would then turn that car into a Badass car to make to sell it for 6-figure like the first deal they show in the series... (Spoiler Alert)
They picked you a ratty old ’64 Ford Thunderbird for a thousand bucks and added parts worth $15,000 to start with.
Mark went overboard on this project by cutting the roof off of it, sheet-metaled the entire backseat, and placed a wraparound aircraft windshield on it.
After adding 18-inch smoothie wheels and wrapping it in chrome, the Gotham Garage Team makes a Silver Rocket Ship Come to Reality.
They want to give the feeling to whoever owns and drives this New ’64 Thunderbird, he feels like he is sitting in an aircraft and time machine of some sort.
They now had made a custom-made badass car, which could be sold for $30,000 alone.
Instead, they decided to trade it for a ’70 Chevy Fleetside truck with disassembled pieces worth $45,000.
Mark’s Crew member Tony took the lead to transform this custom truck which felt like driving a sports car with a truck body on it.
They added the LS Motor with the stacked fuel injection showcasing them off from small windows cut out on the hood because it was too cool to close the hood on.
With that, they complemented other subtle but unique touches with custom mirrors, grille, seats, and dashboard and then adding a walnut bed in the back, which looked like a dance floor.
And because it’s a Badass Pro-Touring Truck, it drives like a race car, but on the inside of the car having all the modern conveniences of a High-End Luxury car.
This Truck was made in such a way, that you experience it more like a Corvette or a Maserati or a Ferrari, not only when you enter it, but when you drive it as well.
Now this Custom-made Chevy Pro-Touring Truck already surpassed the value of $70,000.
The Gotham Garage Team was about to trade it up for a Zephyr and the upgraded Zephyr would have been sold for upwards of $150,000, which would have given a profit of $80,000.
Unfortunately, the deal fell through and they were left with a Custom-made Chevy Pro-Touring Truck sitting in their Garage.
However, because there is already so much demand in the Market, it just took one message to all of their contacts and in one week,
The Custom-made Chevy Pro-Touring Truck was Sold for a Grand total of $73,500
Between the money they spent on fixing up the Thunderbird, trade up for the Fleetside, and the money it took to upgrade that, the team spent a total of $32,000.
After selling it for $73,500, the Gotham Garage Team took a grand profit of $41,500.
This is where I am sharing only 1 deal which was shown in their first 2 and a one-fourth episode of their first season.
Imagine, how many deals they were already closing every year, even before they landed the Netflix Deal.
Only their second Season on Netflix, they have done more than a dozen of 3 Tier “Upgrade and Trade” cars and a dozen of simple Custom “Upgrade and sell” cars, where you would never find the replica of the same.
Not only that, but they have also landed one of their Custom Build Car - Plymouth XNR Replica, a $935,000 concept car to Petersen Car Museum.
Now, imagine, how many cars they would have sold and how many 6-Figures Payday they have earned off Camera.
Here I would like to show you...
The 3 Most Crucial Pieces That Made That 6-Figure Payday
The First Piece - The Builder Team
Mark Towle a.k.a Car Whisperer and his Perfect Mechanic Team who turns any project into Gold.
Mark is the visionary, he is the one who leads the Team with the Vision of how each project should be carried out.
He is the craftsman, he is the architect, he knows how to shape and give life to an upgrade-car that makes the buyer’s eyes dazzle.
And his team, including Tony Quinones, Michael “Caveman” Pyle, and Constance Nunes add to that extra level of understanding the vision and making it a reality.
While each one of them has their expertise in this field, they don’t hesitate to work on the project which they can’t see but still move ahead cause they trust Mark’s Vision.
This is the First Piece, the Perfect Team.
Everybody has skin in the game when they get their Big Payout Day, everybody gets their piece of that pie.
The Second Piece - The Deal Maker
In Gotham Garage, Shawn Pilot is the Deal Maker of the Team.
In Mark Towle words,
“We can make the most badass ride on the planet, but if Shawn’s got no one to trade it to, we’re dead in the water.
He’s just this Mad Man. He knows everyone in the Automotive Community.
He knows a guy, and if he doesn't know the guy, his guy knows the guy.”
While Mark is an artist, Shawn is the man who sells his art.
He has proven himself again and again, that he has sold something that the Team created, at a price better than they were thinking.
Once, when Mark decided to make a custom boat, which looks like driving a Corvette on water, Shawn was the one who went to the boatyard, networked with other people, and found a potential buyer.
But here is the thing, Shawn works as a deal-maker, both ways.
He not only finds all the trade-up deals and cash deals, but it is mostly him, who would find all the necessary parts for that car that is not openly available or they don’t have in their garage.
He would scavenge every other salvage yard and find the part that is needed or works the best for the deal.
Not only that, he usually hops on and find the donor cars for the first step of most of team trade-up deals.
But however much we boast about the “Deal Maker,” which is, of course, an important part of the Business…
This Business Means Nothing Without The Third And Most Important Piece
The Third Most Important Piece - The Network of People in the Automotive Community.
If there is no network, the “Upgrade and Trade” business model ceases to exist.
The Automotive Network as a whole is a Group of Highly Enthusiastic Group of People in their arena, who directly or indirectly contributes to the $750 Billion Dollar Industry.
Here, we are not talking about people who want cars at the cheapest price.
We are talking about a huge community of people who has this unbelievable kind of passion in specific Automotive communities.
We are talking about all the Automotive Vehicle and Service providers like
Salvage Yard Owners that sell donor cars and parts (In the US, it's worth $22 Billion a Year.)
Used Car Dealership who sell used cars (More than 45,000 Individual Dealership in the US alone.)
Innumerable Garages and Body Shops Owners who do simple refurbishing and fixing work.
Custom Car Designer and Restoration Garages who create custom and unique cars.
Each community on this network help each other to grow and make money in the long run only because...
The Automotive Industry Is The Only Place Where Trading Up Is The Way Of Making Money
As a Salvage Yard Owner
Just by trading a few car parts with other salvage yard owners, you can make a working car that you can easily sell at a better price.
You can also trade 2 or more non-working cars for working cars which will fetch you better cash deals.
As Used Car Dealership
You can trade a car which is sitting in your lot for months for one that can be immediately sold for cash.
You can trade your unsold car for multi-deals body repair or paint job services for your other cars on sale, increasing their value immediately.
As Garage or Body Shop Owner
You can trade cars for your services as a packaged deals and then sell the car with simple upgrade which can be sold for a good profit.
Alternatively, you can trade your one-time services for necessary parts that can help you build a car.
Apart from that, you can do the magic and create custom cars, and sell it for great profit.
And there are many more creative ways to trade and get more value for what you sell.
However, the network makes the most by trading within the community and then selling to the world.
Each one in the network gets their piece of the pie, either now or later in the trade transaction.
And even if you are not doing much, just being a part of a proper network and posting what you have for trade can bring you clients from the network itself.
But there was still one problem.
How would each trader get the best value for what they are trading and be satisfied with what they are getting in return?
This is the biggest problem that has been consistently there when you are Trading.
At the moment of the trade, each trader wants to get the best value in return, but how do you define the value, when the value is subjective.
In the early days, every trade was done as Barter Trading.
And the whole reason why Barter Trading faded away was that there was always a problem when measuring the value of the products in trade.
This is where "Money" was created as a solution to measure because different products have different values and Money becomes the common denominator and tool for measuring.
But, when we come to today (where we are dealing with the crisis because of the pandemic) what can you do when "Money" itself becomes scarce.
This is where we want to bridge the gap, where having less money shouldn't come in the way of trading.
Here is where we incorporated the concept of creating an open marketplace for trading and Virtual Trade Dollars came into the picture and Automotive Barter Exchange was born.
And this is where we bring you...
Automotive Barter Exchange - USA First Cashless Automotive-Only Trade Platform and Network
Automotive Barter Exchange is the only platform for Business in the Automotive Industry to create a synergy of fair trading between the trade partners.
