Recently, the sales teams from the Haddad Auto Group gathered together for a group photo.  Although the sales men and women are used to my taking their picture and put up with my sometimes confusing requests ("kneel - no sit - everyone squish together - relax - SMILE! ") they almost never have a group photo that has everyone together in one place, at one time, like the one I took recently.

And although it was 8am, and some had forgotten their striped shirt and most of them hate to have their picture taken and no one had had their coffee yet - this photo shoot went off without a hitch.  Why?  Everyone was extremely proud to be a part of the Haddad Auto Group - and everyone, and I mean everyone, was incredibly honored to be awarded 'Best New Car Dealer' in this year's 'Best of the Berkshires'.

I've known the Haddad sales teams for quite a few years now and they are exactly what you would want your car salesmen to be - knowledgeable, friendly, honest and dedicated.  I've seen them come in early, stay late, drive to other states and essentially do whatever it took to make a sales transaction go smoothly.  And they always, always, always aim to do what's best for their customers.

So it was with pride that I looked out at the Haddad 'family' this day.  It was wonderful to see them all together - happy, smiling, full of good natured teasing.  I knew what this award meant to them.

And this time when I took their photo, I didn't even have to say 'SMILE' - they already were...
