More than 200 equipment dealer sales professionals from the United States and Canada recently gathered at JCB’s North American headquarters in Savannah, Ga., for “The Gloves Are Off” sales training.
Although the event focused on educating dealer sales professionals on JCB’s newest agricultural and construction equipment, the manufacturer also took used it to recognize top-performing dealer sales professionals by inducting them into the company’s Superstar Ring program.
“2015 was yet another outstanding year for JCB in North America,” said Dan Schmidt, JCB North America’s vice president of agriculture, who noted that equipment dealers and their sales professionals made the excellent results possible. "Through our Superstar Ring program, we’re able to thank and reward those sales professionals whose diligent efforts in the field have exceeded our expectations,” said Schmidt.
