Brandon Wilhelm (Agribusiness)

Our team has found that collaborating on a bi- monthly basis via TEAMS allows us to get a better idea of what is happening throughout our entire region. Everyone has a slightly different customer base and we use this time to talk about what’s working, what’s not, focus products, wins, and areas of improvement. More times than not we are learning about a new product, sales strategy or product placement within a very informal setting. This has gone a long way with the team and even more so with a couple of newer hires.

I have a thirst for learning so I actively seek opportunities to learn about new products, application methods and sales tactics through various social/media outlets. Twitter and instagram have provided tremendous reach to industry leading professionals. The advanced agronomy training courses have also been a great source of information and education.

Jeff Schwab and Jason Otto have both been instrumental in my growth, development, and success thus far. Both have helped me develop, but it took me engaging with them to do so. Asking the right questions and constantly picking their brains has allowed me to grow with ease and confidence. Without their help and willingness to engage, I wouldn’t be where I am today.
