    <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Showroom Edge is the podcast for car salespeople who want fresh and creative strategies to sell more cars and make more money.</strong></p><p>(Formerly The Epic Sales Podcast.)</p><p>Maybe you're a few months in and hit a wall. Maybe you're a steady producer who knows you're leaving deals and gross on the table. Maybe you're eyeing the next step: top producer, F&amp;I, or management. Either way, you've got the basics. This isn't a 101 class. It's a high-powered resource for getting unstuck and getting ahead.</p><p>I'm Dave Ingland, and I've spent 30 years in sales and leadership, the last 15 in automotive retail. As a general sales manager, I've led high-volume dealerships across the western US, stores selling 700+ cars a month, working with multiple brands, markets, personalities, and demographics. What I've learned is that results don't come from pressure tactics, word tracks, or a big personality. They come from better questions, better follow-up, and better habits. That works whether you're the loudest voice on the floor or the quietest.</p><p><strong>What you'll get on The Showroom Edge:</strong></p><ul><li><p><strong>Practical sales training:</strong> objection handling, closing, follow-up, protecting gross profit, and turning "I'll think about it" into a yes</p></li><li><p><strong>AI for car salespeople:</strong> how to use ChatGPT and Claude to write better texts and emails, prospect smarter, stay on top of follow-up, manage your schedule, and research customers in minutes</p></li><li><p><strong>Industry news and trends</strong> that affect your pay, your customers, and your career, in plain English</p></li><li><p><strong>Career growth strategy</strong> to help you move up and become a leader in your store</p></li></ul><p>No gimmicks. No manipulation. Just people-first selling and strategies proven on real showroom floors.</p><p><strong>Want the AI prompts behind the episodes?</strong> Subscribe to The Showroom Edge Newsletter at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://daveingland.com">daveingland.com</a> for ready-to-use prompts you can copy, paste, and use today.</p><p><strong>Subscribe, and find your edge.</strong></p>]]></description>
