Tim Brown breaks down how Sebastian has taken the position by storm! Sebastian has been able to harness his network, his social media, and the dealership’s team to promote his brand as a car salesman.

About Sebastian Ibanez

Sebastian Ibanez is a true salesman. He’s been selling things his whole life, not allowing his blindness to stop him. Sebastian put himself out there to provide for his family, using humor and his personal skills. Selling everything from mops to blankets to bikes on the corner, after getting local news attention, Sebastian was connected to Tim Brown, who gave Sebastian his first car salesman job. Sebastian is excited to begin the next chapter of his life.

About Tim Brown

Tim Brown is 4th generation owner of a used car dealership. Tim and his seven brothers grew up doing part-time summer jobs in the detail department, body shop, and parts department every summer. At 17 years old, Tim got married and started working in shipping and receiving before moving to new and used car inventory. Tim recalls his dad did NOT want him in the car industry, but Tim begged his dad’s partner every time he saw him give him a chance to sell cars. Since then, Tim has worked on the sales floor, in the finance department, until landing his store in 2010. Tim’s been fortunate enough to be part of the #1 retail Chevy store in the nation and the #2 Nissan store in the country.
