Background

About Ralph Screeton

My professional experience was changing auto part stores over from one company to another. At first I was selling auto parts, franchises out rite. Then I found out it was easier to get an experienced jobber than selling a new store. I had a lot of help from different companies, such as, TRW, Gates, Victor Standard Ignition and a lot of other people. I would have probably made good real estate person. After I got a jobber business, I would make Dealer calls so that I could insure myself to keep the jobber in that town. I learned to become a good outside salesman and counter man. My goal was to be the best rep that PI had and I always wanted to be number one. The same at Motor Bearing Co. and Carquest. I remember one time that Bob Web came up with the deal that the best salesman would have lunch with him. I got it so many times we made a deal that he would just give me the money. Specialties: I was a liason between big companies and the jobbers.
