Hello everyone,
This week I am actually on vacation. I left Chesapeake, VA on the 19th in order to get home for my brother's fiance's bachelorette party. The week following the bachelorette party, (4/29-5/3) I will have another week off because my job will be on our monthly break. After that, my brother will be getting married on May 4th, so I will obviously be home for that. I should get back to this job by May 6th and I will be working promotions and getting ready for the wedding in the meantime.
Thanks for reading the update,
Emily.

PRAYERS FOR PARKER
Hello everyone,
Normally I plan on posting to my blog once a week, on every Tuesday. Even though this is still one of my first blogs, I want to make an exception for a dear friend of mine, Parker Fly.
Usually when I travel all over the United States and sell cars, the goal of myself and the auto marketing company I work for is to blast out as much inventory as possible for the dealership that brings my team in. The sale we have been working this week is exceptionally different. Instead of just working for the dealership this time, we are also working for a 14-year-old friend of ours who just received a liver transplant in May 2012.
Performance Buick in Chesapeake, VA, and Prestige Auto Marketing, based in Orlando, Fl., have collaborated to put on an inventory blowout sale for Parker. We are selling raffle tickets for $20 a piece and we will be giving away the Brocho, "Parker Edition" that is pictured below. The raffle for this vehicle will take place at 7 p.m. on Monday, April 22 at Performance Buick (4033 Portsmouth Blvd., Chesapeake, VA 23321).

If you would like to make a credit or debit donation to Parker, please call (757) 488-3500 and tell them you are responding to a post made by Emily DeMarea on his behalf.

Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to my blog!
My name is Emily DeMarea and I am a traveling saleswoman. I work for an auto marketing group based out of Orlando, Fl. In April 2012, I finished my schooling with a Bachelor of Science in Journalism and a minor in Political Science. Needless to say, I am not doing exactly what I planned on, but it gets me out of the bar and into my big girl work clothes!
Speaking of the bar, I got this job while working at a sports bar in the Kansas City Power and Light District. A group of businessmen came in and sat in my section. Originally, they had planned on only spending an hour or two at the bar. Six hours later, they came to the conclusion that working in a sports bar in Kansas City, Mo. was not what I should have been doing at the time. They convinced me to try out something new and within hours, I was on a plane to Orlando, Fl. (all expenses paid) to give it a shot.
At first I was very skeptical of trying the job. I told everybody about it BUT my parents. I still wasn't sure it was the right occupation for me at the time, so I didn't see the need to worry my parents if I wouldn't be sticking with it a year or two down the road. Fortunately, I happened to enjoy the job very much and I had a natural niche for it. I sold two cars in six days and my new boss was very impressed by me since it was my first time selling in the automobile industry.
Like I mentioned earlier, I had never planned on spending my post-college career traveling the nation selling cars. I want to be a television news reporter someday, and hopefully work my way up to a local news anchor. I plan on utilizing this blog as a gateway for the two jobs so when I apply at a local news station and they ask what I have been doing since I received my Bachelor's, I won't just respond, "Traveling across the United States selling cars."
This is the first of many blogs to come, in which I intend to describe the greatest and some of the worst times one can have as a female traveling car salesperson. Thank you for taking the time to read this blog and I hope you continue to read those to come in the near future.
Sincerely,
Emily A. DeMarea
