Sales & Leasing Consultant

Smythe Volvo Cars

40 River Rd
Summit, NJ 07901

Started off as a Volvo Technician in 2004. In 2005 I joined the Paul’s Volvo Sales team as a Master Salesperson till August 2019. Joined Smythe Volvo in September 2019. My 14 years of Sales Experience have taught me to listen more to the customers’ needs and then answer these needs directly. As a product of Dale Carnegie training, winning friends & influencing people is a core concept of my Sales process. Understanding my customer’s point of view helps me to answer their vehicle needs/wants effectively.

We wanted a very specific car color and an interior color that was found with a Hartford Connecticut dealer. Alon was able to negotiate with the owner of that dealership to release the car to Smythe. It took that was found with a Hartford Connecticut dealer. Alon was able to negotiate with the owner of that dealership to release the car to Smythe. It took Alon serval days to locate the vehicle, but kept us informed all the way to assure us that we would be taken care of. This is the third Volvo my family has purchased through Alon at Smythe. Our entire experience with Alon and Smythe was nothing but excellent. More
