GETTING TO KNOW DAIRY INGREDIENT SALES Our feature group this month is the Dairy Ingredient Division Sales Team. Those of us at Crest rarely see these folks since they are road warriors in their own territories that are spread across the United States. While each of them is based out of a home office, the majority of their time is spent traveling to spend time with customers…so they spend far more time on planes, in cars or hotel rooms than they do at home. Their main focus is to grow sales for Crest by finding ways to make Crest a sustaining resource for our customers. In order to offer the services that we do for our customers, our sales staff are different from typical reps in that they all have technical backgrounds that helps them in being problem solvers at the production floor level in many different situations. They help with trial runs, trouble shooting and assist with training. They make a great team, but I think you will agree that they are a rather unique bunch of individuals.
