Hello All
For most of you . . . ya' already know about the upcoming Lowery Auction on March 23rd . . . However . . . we have had numerous inquiries in relation to "Our Staff" and "Our Business Model"
Due to ALL of the Questions we are receiving . . . I have asked some of my influential TEAM members to introduce themselves to the industry’s message boards and discuss some of theses Questions . . . and . . . hopefully how they can be advantageous to you ! ! !
It is important for them to explain what they can bring to the table to help ya'll
My hope is that many of you will join into these discussions and as you "always have in the past" . . . help me model my vision into the future of the Refurb Business
For some further background on me . . . I have pasted an excerpt of a previous post . . . with some add'l thoughts . . .
How we got here . . .
As many of you know . . . I sold Progressive Screen Printing Machines to The Bergmann Group at the end of the 2nd QTR of 2005 . . . Since then I believe Bergmann has merged the Progressive brand & Tuf brand into the Workhorse name badge ? ? ?
In the 2nd QTR of 2008 Bergmann decided not to renew the Lease of our 50,000+ sq.ft. Greenville, SC Facility . . . hence . . . production of the Progressive Falcon Machines is now at the Bergmann Plant in Phoenix, AZ
Many of my key folks ( dear family friends ) from the Progressive days were now out-of-jobs
The Wifeee and I certainly didn’t want that . . . nor . . . an empty 50,000+ sqft Facility
So . . . thank God we’re not BIG Stock Market types . . . which easily allowed us to dust off some Dollars from CD’s @ 3% APY and put ol’ Benny Franklin to work
Within weeks . . . Lowery Machine & Supply was born ! ! !
Where we are . . .
We started out refurbishing and selling used equipment for the SGIA industry. Since then, demands from the industry have driven us to become an auction company for the very equipment we were refurbishing.
Our first auction is right around the corner and I thought it would be great for you to meet our TEAM via the Forums (in time to match a face when you come in for the auction)
You will start to see some posts right away . . . Some of them want to educate you on the newer technology we have come across that will be included in our auction . . . Some of the folks want to tell you about ways to make your auction experience a little smoother . . . Some will share ways to keep your equipment in "tip-top shape" so you can make money instead of spending it ! ! !
I would graciously-and-greatly appreciate it if you would please take the time to read my TEAM's posts and hopefully grow to respect them the way I certainly do.
As always . . . I Love this Industry . . . and . . . Appreciate everything it has allowed me to accomplish . . . thanks to ALL of you from the bottom of my HEART ! ! !
