Pile O. Benjamins was ripped off by car dealers one too many times, and he’d had enough. That frustration fueled his book, The Art of Winning the Car Deal. Armed with nearly 40 vehicle purchases under his belt, an industrial engineering degree from Georgia Tech, and an MBA from Kennesaw State University, he created a superior Car-Buying Blueprint that empowers everyday consumers like never before.

“I chose the pen name Pile O. Benjamins for one reason: I’m laser-focused on helping buyers save a ‘pile of Benjamins’ every time they purchase a vehicle. We’ve been taught to buy cars the wrong way for generations. The Big Secret car dealers don’t want us to know is that buyers hold all the power, because without the money we bring to the negotiating table, no cars get sold, and no one at a dealership gets paid. That’s the very definition of power. I teach car shoppers how to reclaim that power by using Five Simple Words at the dealership to secure the deal they want, instead of accepting whatever the dealer offers.”

Isn’t it time you let Pile O. Benjamins show you how to start winning your car deals?
