 Road Machinery & Supplies Co. hosted its annual Customer Appreciation Golf Outings this summer in Iowa and Minnesota.

“These events are two dates on the calendar we look forward to every year,” said Vice President of Sales Ben Schmidtlein. “They give us the chance to hang out and spend time with our customers away from the jobsite. These two days really help with growing the relationships between us and our customers.”

 

Each event featured an 18-hole best shot tournament, hole competitions and prizes, and dinner.

 

“Customers have these events circled on their calendars, and they talk to us about it all year,” said Sales Manager Luther Braun. “It’s a great time every year. We put a lot of thought and effort into making it a premier event each summer.”

 

The golf outings are also an opportunity for RMS’ manufacturers to meet with customers as well.

 

“These events wouldn’t be as great as they are without our employees putting in time in the planning and assistance from our manufacturers,” said Schmidtlein. “Komatsu, Epiroc, Astec, NPK, Genesis, Werk-Brau and Antraquip all contributed and attended an event this year, which really puts these outings over the top.”
