The Horse Expo, Triumph of Ag, and True Love??

Monday, March 24th, 2008

Hello everyone! Well March was a busy month. We were in Lincoln for the Horse Expo and met some great new people. We are just now catching up with all our leads from the show. The weather was cold, but it didn’t stop the crowd for attending. I met a great couple from Blair, NE. They were in the market for a new trailer. I showed them all the great features and benefits of owning a Sundowner and after viewing everything else at the show, they agreed that the Sundowner was the best. The man’s wife had already started the negotiating with her husband on what all she was willing to sacrifice for her new Sundowner. The couple left, but not before I told them that I would be in Omaha the next week and I would have that trailer on display if they wanted to see it again.

We packed up and went to Omaha as planned the following week. The Triumph of Ag takes place at The Qwest Center. This was the most well-organized event I have ever been to! We got all set up with no troubles and started fresh the next morning. My Cell phone rang and it was the gentleman from the week before asking if I still had that trailer they had looked at from the horse expo. I said “Yes we do!”. He made arrangements to purchase the trailer without his wife knowing since it was her anniversary gift. What a guy!!! Anyway, I agreed to deliver the trailer after the show. Once I was able to take off, I headed for Blair. He had her sitting on the front steps enjoying the nice weather when I pulled up. She looked really confused to see me there until her loving husband leaned in and whispered, “Happy Anniversary”. She was completely surprised and it was a privilege and an honor to be a part of it all.

The March shows were great and sales are picking up. We have had some new inventory show up so keep your eyes on the inventory section and make plans to come and see it for yourself!!

Take Care!!
