    Episode 4 - I sit down with William Bridges, better known as Billy The Car Kid. Billy started selling cars after owning his own business in Montana and quickly realized he was better than everyone around him, selling over 40 cars per month before transitioning to management. After starting at a store that did business the right way, he transitioned to dealership closer to home that did business much differently; quickly souring his views on dealership life and pushing him into a new business on the other side of the desk.. negotiating and helping car shoppers, many of them first time car buyers, get the car of their dreams without being taken advantage of.
