I need some new prospects

[Trafik Jamz]

Are you limiting yourself to just Honda sales or are you willing to sell Dodge? If Dodge is perfectly ok with you try:

Rick Electric (Denny Rick)
Red River Electric (Unsure of who to contact there)
CS Dubois
Ulteig
IdeaOne
Cableone
Midco
Protection Systems
Sanford Health (Denny Sanford is owner, not sure who their fleet manager is though)

Basically any electrical contractor, general contractor, engineer, sales firm, etc... may be a good lead. You could always try multiband, Marco, Network Center, Network Center Inc, and a whole host of other IT companies as well.

Hotels could be a source as well as schools/colleges.

With new I'd like to stick to Honda, simply because I don't know enough about packages and such to make myself sound professional. Also, for vloume discounts, working with my own management team works the best.

Try Laneys. But its probably going to be a hard sell on hondas to commercial applications that are going to be using them for work. I can only see hotels or schools and such buying foriegn products, even though they are manufactured here, trying telling some ppl that, (i am sure u are aware) lol.

This.I doubt any of the contractors or other blue collar type places that need trucks are going to buy a Ridgeline. If you sell the Dodges then you might have a shot.> Rexwagon;325934 wrote:

Any of the companies that are growing locally! Also, I wouldn't rule out selling to the city of Fargo or any of the colleges...

Joel, I'm 99.9999% confident that you have the ability (personally) to sell Dodge, yes they have a ton of different packages (not the simple lx, ex, exl, exl-res, etc...) but I'm sure that if you get a hot prospect Casey will be more than willing to help you out with closing it.... and you'd probably get more $$$ on the Dodge side from my experience.

There isn't a hotel anywhere close to here that buys more than one vehicle a year at the most so they aren't even worth pursuing with much effort.

You might be correct that no hotels in this area might only buy one vehicle per year, but isn't one vehicle better than none? Tharldson's & Arneson's are a huge factor in the area in regards to hotel companies. You might not see them purchase vehicles directly for the hotel but does not mean other aspects of their business does not need them.

[Trafik Jamz]

I'm pretty sure that Hando is more than familiar enough with Tharaldson's to give an accurate assessment of their vehicle needs.

Start selling dodge's and sell to the major RR's....BN and CPRail buy hundreds of trucks a year.
