How much money does a automotive service advisor earn?

Answer 1

Well that is a good question, I have been a service advisor for Chrysler dealerships for around 18 years now you can make good money if you know what your doing because we work on commission only your earnings will never be the same it's usually feast or famon. It's pretty hard to get started because you will be competing with the other advisors and in a slow shop they will not show you anything and will try to starve you out you are taking there money, the service manager does not care because he or she could have 10 writers on the drive in a slow shop they also are on commission to so that's like having free labor. Me and my partner get paid separately but work together we have staved out allot of new advisors. I can tell you it's a very high stress cut throat job I have been doing it since I was 17 it's all I know I make good money but it's not easy I am always looking for a way out. All I can tell you if your going to try it make sure you can live for at least 3 months on little to no money. It's a hard road to go down as a service advisor im advising you I would look for another career.
