In this new role, Konicke's primary responsibility will be to assist Dealer Relations Manager Travis Flowers with all aspects of dealer support, including sales, after sales and service.

Brady believes that is it vitally important to have someone with Konicke’s listening skills and industry knowledge to relate to the dealers in his territory. "Jeff will be than just a voice on a phone, he will also be the face of our company to our dealers in the West and Pacific Northwest.
