As SylvanSport continues to grow its dealer network, the manufacturer will showcase its award-winning GO camping trailer at the 2016 Elkhart RV Open House Extravaganza.
Open House draws more than 4,000 RV dealers from the U.S. and Canada and 60 RV manufacturers and suppliers. Over the course of 2½ days, an estimated one billion dollars’ worth of business is generated.
“We’re averaging two to four new dealers a month,” said SylvanSport Vice President of Sales Earl Hunter. “When I look at our map, I see only a few territories that still need to be covered and we expect to fill some of those holes at Elkhart.”
Hunter continues, “What I love to see with our dealers, isn’t the initial order, but reorders. That means our dealers are selling through and then already having units sold, even before the next shipment arrives. It’s part of our dealer strategy to help promote and support each and every one of our dealers, not just with product, but through marketing as well. It’s not just a drop-off and good luck…we want to help get people to their doors.”
“SylvanSport has created a truly unique product, which fills a lot of different needs,” said Charlie Wolf, sales manager at Beckleys Camping Center in Thurmont, Md. “It’s amazing, you have to have two units on display - one set up (in camping mode) and one down, to truly show the versatility of the unit. SylvanSport has been a great company to work with. They’ve always provided outstanding support and help from the factory and Earl Hunter is the real deal.”
With this year’s continuing success, SylvanSport is receptive to new partnerships. Dealers can contact SylvanSport at 828-883-4292, or email Earl B. Hunter, vice president of sales, at sales@sylvansport.com.
