What must a salesperson do before entering discussions or negotiations with a potential vehicle buyer?

  1. Obtain a driver's license

  2. Be registered with OMVIC

  3. Complete a sales training program

  4. Obtain a salesperson's license from the city

The correct answer is: Be registered with OMVIC

Before entering discussions or negotiations with a potential vehicle buyer, a salesperson must be registered with OMVIC. This is important because OMVIC is the regulator of motor vehicle sales in Ontario and being registered means that the salesperson is qualified and licensed to work in the automotive industry in Ontario. Option A, obtaining a driver's license, is not relevant to the salesperson's qualifications or abilities and is not required by OMVIC. Option C, completing a sales training program, may be beneficial for the salesperson's knowledge and skills, but it is not a legal requirement for working in the automotive industry. Option D, obtaining a salesperson's license from the city, is also not necessary as OMVIC is the regulatory body for all motor vehicle sales in Ontario. Therefore, the only correct and necessary action for a salesperson to take before entering discussions or negotiations with a potential vehicle buyer is to be registered
