## Resource

One of my clients hired someone else first.They didn't feel special. They didn't feel like that person was working for them. They felt like they were being pushed toward a worse deal. So they let that person go and they hired me.We needed a 2025 Mazda CX-5 Turbo Premium in Rhodium White. Specific car. Specific client. No room for games. I called four dealerships. Some couldn't get the rebate right. Some wouldn't move off a bad number. One had been trying to get my business for months.Guess which one got the deal.$39,000 out the door. No drama. No added garbage. Just a clean number and a client who finally felt like someone was actually working for him.
