Mack names top sales professional

Oct. 4, 2012

Fred Schmidt, of Mack Sales of Charlotte, has been crowned the champion of the 2012 Mack Trucks Walk the Bulldog sales competition. Schmidt competed against 11 other regional competition winners in the Mack Trucks contest.

Competitors were evaluated on how well they communicated product features and benefits based on customer requirements, as well as the service and support solutions offered under the Mack Pedigree Uptime Protection program.

“Walk the Bulldog is all about ensuring that we continue to provide customers with the best trucks for the jobs they need to do and have their backs throughout the ownership experience,” said John Walsh, Mack vice president of marketing.  “Our dealers are key to delivering on that promise, and this competition is a way to acknowledge the great work being done every day by some of the industry’s leading sales professionals and inspire others to up their games as well.” 

Bob Dow, of McDevitt Trucks, placed second in the competition, and Tom Tenseth, of Bruckner Truck Sales, finished third.

This was the second year for the Walk the Bulldog competition, held at the Mack Customer Center in Allentown, PA.
