2012 Dealership of the Year: Mid-State Equipment

In this video sponsored by Sheyenne Tooling & Mfg., Chris Frodel and Bryan Hanson, owners of Mid-State Equipment in Janesville, Wis., talk about the shift they have made to accommodate the rental market. For Mid-State, the rental division is an entirely separate business. Frodel says that store managers keep a log of products that generate interest among customers to expand the rental line. They also evaluate the under performing rental products.
