𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐍𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧…
I accidentally posted this on our Facebook page last night, when I only meant for it to go on to our Instagram (@MSBCarSales if you don't already follow us!)- so apologies if you're having déjà vu reading this! 😂
Last night Car Dealer Magazine released the first wave of nominations for the 2023 Used Car Awards, and much to my delight I saw my name on the 10 name shortlist for the 'Future Star' Award! 😁
I'm obviously ecstatic to see my name on the list, particularly as MSB is such a small scale business in the grand scheme of things. Those closest to me see how much I put into MSB so this is a huge achievement even if it doesn't go any further!
Since we opened in 2021 both Steve & I have built this from the ground up, we both share the workload: selling, delivering, vehicle sourcing, mechanical prep, accounting, marketing etc, we only outsource what we absolutely have to - it's a lot of work but we know what our individual strengths are and we make it work effectively! 🛠
On reflection of the two and a half years that we've been operating, I'm very grateful to my business partner/dad for his encouragement and support as it's allowed me to put my own stamp on things and really express myself through my work. I'm a people person, definitely not a salesman and I believe the cars sell themselves, I'm just there to chat and process paperwork as I'm sure most of my customers can vouch for! 😂
Arguably, it couldn't be worse timing to be nominated as we are running low on prepared & advertised stock but we have got cars hitting the website soon!! 🚗
Last year, we made the final 5 nominees for 'Best Newcomer Dealership' and we had a great time letting our hair down at the Awards Night (well, I did as Steve let his hair down about 30 years ago and it never came back...) so hopefully we'll make the next shortlist and go for another night out! 🤞
