My Road To Success

(And The Mindset To Get There)

Edik Grow up in Iran
Grew up in Iran near the U.S. Embassy, watching Little House on the Prairie.

I always wanted to come to the U.S. to live the American Dream

After completing school and 2 years in the Army, my dad finally agreed to let me go.

He gave me $2,000 to start my new life

Edik at 22 - Started a new life
Statue of Liberty
Because I was Iranian…

I was routed through Greece & Germany arriving in the U.S. with only $800

Knowing almost no English,

I worked two jobs carrying around my English – Farsi dictionary

Working 2 jobs
Volkswagen Karmann Ghia 1973 Model
Used Cars
Found an ad in a newspaper to make $100,000 per year with no investment
After 3 days of training, started selling…and only sold 2.5 cars in the first month

I got fired for being too nice to be in the car business…

Edik gote fired bor being too nice
Nissan Infiniti G20 1982 Model

Then I heard a voice say:

“Don’t give up”

So I drove down the highway and got a job at a Nissan dealer the same day and sold 28.5 cars my 1st month

Powerstroke 4x4 1997 Ford F-350
Edik was recited to a Ford dearship

9 months later, I was recruited to a Ford dealership

It became #1 in U.S.!
Started my own Honda business & became

#2 largest dealer in U.S. in only 7 years with $300M in sales in the last year alone

Edik started his own Honda business
Honda S2000 Convertible
What I learned on the way...
Sell as if your life depends on it, systemize what works, replicate relentlessly, scale and automate!
Moved to Richmond, VA

Started a Nissan dealership, consistently winning #1 Nissan Dealer and #1 Customer Service award in VA four years in a row

Now I am on to my third Billion Dollar Car Dealership… this time with Ai-Driven systems to give me more time to focus on what really counts:
