Southern branches host customer golf outing

 


Road Machinery & Supplies Co. welcomed customers from Iowa and Illinois back to the golf course in October with the return of the customer appreciation golf outing. After taking a year off due to COVID-19, more than 50 customers, manufacturer representatives, and RMS employees enjoyed a day at the Tournament Club of Iowa (TCI) in Polk City.


“My favorite things about the event are planning it and getting all of the customers together in one group with RMS people,” said Territory Manager Bob Newman. “It’s always a really fun time.”

 

In addition to a round of golf, customers enjoyed lunch and dinner at TCI and competed in several hole competitions.

 

“It’s a good place to network with contractors and get to know who you’re working with,” said Mark Anthony of Jensen Construction Company. “You’re not under the gun. You’re able to socialize about different things rather than worry about equipment.”

 

“We’ve got more than 30 years of experience with RMS, and we were honored to be asked to come participate,” said Katie Erickson of Linwood Mining & Materials Co. “Coming here and meeting people that you e-mail is great.”
