SEE WHAT'S NEW IN USED

Dealerships are one of the key components behind what makes John Deere one of the most successful agricultural equipment producers in the world. Without these dealerships (and their employees), equipment or product purchases and servicing would be made next to impossible, crippling the agriculture industry.

Last week, we featured an interview with Cade Smith of East Coast Equipment. This time, we had the opportunity to sit down with John Cothren, general manager of various Grissoms locations in Oklahoma, to better understand what it takes to successfully operate a chain of John Deere dealerships.

Prior to its recent reveal at the National Farm Machinery Show, the name and accommodating features of the John Deere ExactEmerge planter had the agriculture industry on the edge of its seat, and for good reason. The ExactEmerge planter allows crop producers to double previous industry standard maximum planting speeds (about 5 mph) thanks to a number of new features.

So, without further delay, let’s take a look at some of the features of the ExactEmerge that give crop producers the ability to deliver seed to the trench in a speedy, consistent manner.

John Deere products and equipment are designed to offer the most to operators, allowing them to achieve high productivity levels out of a full day’s work. However, there are some John Deere tools that can kick productivity into overdrive when the appropriate situations present themselves.

We recently (November, 2013) had the pleasure of sitting down with Cade Smith , parts manager at East Coast Equipment in Washington, North Carolina, to better understand what it takes to operate a successful John Deere dealership.

Cade was kind enough to share some business tactics and interesting stories he has encountered as a member of East Coast Equipment. Excerpts from our interview are as follows:

The John Deere 204K wheel loader was introduced this past summer with an eye towards increasing productivity, visibility, versatility, and lower daily operating costs through a series of new features.

Doug Laufenberg, product marketing manager for compact wheel loaders, John Deere Construction & Forestry, said in the product announcement, “The 204K and 304K are the next generation of John Deere compact wheel loaders designed on feedback from various landscape and agricultural customers. To be successful on the jobsite, our customers wanted a shorter machine with simplified hydraulics, loader linkage and electrical systems along with a skid steer style coupler and a standard open canopy.”
