Sim Dongseop, Kia Motors Sales Manager, Achieves 4,000 Vehicle Sales to Become 'Grand Master'

[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] Kia Motors announced on the 26th that Sales Manager Dongseop Sim of the Donggwangju Branch has achieved cumulative sales of 4,000 units and was awarded the title of ‘Grand Master’.

The ‘Grand Master’ is an honor bestowed by Kia Motors to outstanding sales staff who have achieved cumulative sales of 4,000 units while working at Kia, a record that has been difficult to attain, with only 13 people having earned the title until now.

Sim, the 14th Grand Master, joined Kia Motors in 1994 and surpassed cumulative sales of 4,000 units after 26 years of service, selling approximately 150 units annually on average.

Sim said, “No matter how long it takes, I have always strived to keep my promises to customers,” adding, “Motivating myself to achieve the goals set at the beginning of each year greatly helped me.”

Kia Motors awarded Sales Manager Dongseop Sim a plaque and a K9 vehicle as a prize.

Meanwhile, Kia Motors operates various reward programs such as the Long-term Sales Honor Award System and the Star Awards to encourage sales staff who do their best in the field and to promote healthy sales competition.

The Long-term Sales Honor Award System grants titles and prizes upon reaching cumulative sales milestones: ‘Star’ for 2,000 units, ‘Master’ for 3,000 units, ‘Grand Master’ for 4,000 units, and ‘Great Master’ for 6,000 units.

Additionally, Kia Motors holds the annual ‘KIA Star Awards’ to recognize outstanding sales employees each year.
