Dealers: In Troubled Times, Remember Your Role
In his blog, Tim Brannon of B&G Equipment in Paris, Tenn., writes, “With all the turmoil in the world, the fact that we can't understand why people hate democracies, the economic uncertainties of the times, the lack of leadership from our government, we still get up, go to work and do what we do best. We sell and repair the equipment that helps the most productive people in the world, the American Farmers, produce the food and fiber that feeds and clothes the world. We just keep on keeping on. That is what wins the day, right? I keep telling myself that anyway... what else can we do?”
