Creating a positive customer experience is what I truly love to do by training and working with staff. Have been in the business since the Mid 90's and have experience in all aspects of a dealership. My passion other than developing a well rounded sales team would be golf. I am married to a wonderful woman and we have 3 grown children. If I am not in the dealership you will probably find me on the beach or on a golf course.

We stopped at the Kia dealership out of curiosity more than anything. We had just returned from another dealership nearby that was in no way impressive. We were looking for a salesperson that would be cu than anything. We had just returned from another dealership nearby that was in no way impressive. We were looking for a salesperson that would be customer oriented and one that would be very familiar with his inventory. A man approached us and identified himself as Kevin Shelton. He was friendly and immediately relaxed us as we gave him a few ideas about what we were looking for. We found out that he knew his inventory well and showed us a car that we liked. He was in no way pushy but patient with us as we considered the choices available. When we decided on the car that we wanted and agreed to buy it Kevin Shelton worked with us to seal the deal. He was in no way through with us as he spent over an hour showing us the features and setting up the car with our personal data. Since we’ve had the car he is still in touch with us to see if there’s anything that we need or have any questions that need his attention. We would like to highly recommend this dealership and Kevin Shelton. More

When you go to any dealership if you don’t know a salesperson you take what you get. We were so foot get out of our car at the Kia dealership and be approached by a man who quickly identified himse salesperson you take what you get. We were so foot get out of our car at the Kia dealership and be approached by a man who quickly identified himself as Kevin Shelton. He was so friendly, pleasant, and personable. He asked if we were looking for any vehicle in particular and we told him what we’d like to see if he had any on the lot. He knew the inventory and took us straight to a beautiful white Telluride. We loved it and liked the fact that he knew so much about its details and features. We met a really friendly sales manager, Derek Everett, before we left for the day. Kevin was never pushy in any way and told us he’d be available if we needed him. The next morning we looked on line and saw another car that had just come to the same lot. After giving Kevin a call we decided to go have a look at it. Kevin was happy to show us that car and give another round of details and features. It turned out that we liked that car even better and negotiated to buy it. Along the way we also met with a general manager, Matt Bazinet, who also impressed us. Within two days the car was ours and Kevin had spent at least 1 1/2 hours showing us again the fear of the car. We then met with Mike Bazinet who sold of a warranty. Along this whole process we could not have been more pleased with our transaction and treatment at the Myrtle Beach Kia Dealership and thank them for everything. More
