Get into 5th Gear!

posted in General |

Shifting GearsIt’s 2008 and the challenge is on! Car-Buy-Her is challenging 2008 ladies to join our 5th Gear Challenge to become engaged, educated, enlightened, evolved, and empowered in car buying and maintenance.

It’s time to take control of your car life and you can do that by joining the challenge. Car-Buy-Her is offering monthly teleconferences, webinars, workshops and clinics to provide information and resources for women.

It wasn’t that long ago that I was left on the side of the road, literally, and overwhelmed and frustrated by the car buying experience. There were so many things I could have been doing to prepare myself — but I didn’t know that at the time. So, I’m on a crusade to develop Car-Buy-Hers, not automotive experts because here’s what I discovered: You don’t have to be an automotive expert to get a good deal, you just need to be a Car-Buy-Her.

Here’s a definition of an expert: Having, involving, or demonstrating great skill, dexterity, or knowledge as the result of experience or training

Here’s a definition of a Car-Buy-Her: informed, in control and ready to buy

In my honest opinion, women don’t want to be automotive experts, but they do want to be informed and in control.

And if we really want to make a case towards the experts, let’s first determine who’s the real expert — is it the dealership or auto repair mechanic or would it be you?

Who knows best about your lifestyle, your needs, wants, and current situation? Who drives the car, takes care of it (or not) on a regular basis? That’s right, you do?!

So why then are we (women that is) relying on everyone else to make the deal and tell us what’s best for us?

It’s time to get into 5th Gear ladies! Join us, why don’t you . . .
