Jim Sotolongo’s Summary
A successful businessman with an active conscience, Jim Sotolongo proves that one can prosper financially and help others at the same time. Since founding Century Motor Financial over a decade ago, Mr. Sotolongo has maintained a balance between growing his business and serving the community he is in.
Century Motor Financial is a special kind of automotive dealership that caters to the community. Due to their above-average solid financial performance over the many years in business, Century is able to offer financing for clients that they would not otherwise be able to find unless they were purchasing new from the dealer. These deals exemplify a new and exciting sales technique developed and implemented by Jim himself. Relentless networking with auto industry leaders has helped Century grow from a two man operation at its inception to a staff of over 12 with two locations which, combined, has sales numbers of over US $12 million annually.
Century has been committed to quality customer service since the outset, including development of an innovative bonus program that energizes the sales force while rewarding successful deals. Century stays connected with the community by providing reduced cost housing to disadvantaged lower income families, providing vehicles to families in need, and making numerous donations to local organizations.
At the end of the day, Jim Sotolongo strives to be as balanced as the books he oversees as part of his responsibilities at Century Motor Financial. He is an avid football fan and catches the Miami Dolphins games whenever he can. He also enjoys being outdoors, engaging in fishing, boating, and scuba diving off the Florida coast.
