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 came in to Smythe Volvo looking for a second car - our second purchase with Alon at Smythe. He is the reason why we came back to Smythe a second time. Alon was able to quickly help us identify the right c second purchase with Alon at Smythe. He is the reason why we came back to Smythe a second time. Alon was able to quickly help us identify the right car for us, and then patiently worked with us to find exactly what was best for our situation. He was very kind, patient and knowledgable, and made us feel extremely comfortable throughout the process. He was also incredibly responsive to our many questions. We really can't imagine buying a car from anyone else. Highly recommend Smythe Volvo and Alon! More

I went in to see if I could find a car I would like. Ran into a problem - they had TOO MANY to choose from. After a few test drives and zero pressure I fell in love. From there it was super easy..

I have never had such a present buying experience in my life, at 52 that is saying something! The entire staff was accommodating easy to work with and I am extremely grateful.
