Last month, I talked about the used equipment manager and how the position is different from that of a remarketing manager. Both the remarketing manager and the used equipment manager share 85% of the same characteristics. The remaining 15% is where the most significant differences are.

Last month I wrote about the difference between a used equipment manager and remarketing manager. I am not sure I can do justice to both with just one article, so I will spend some time looking at what the used equipment manager does and what kind of person is needed.

In my opinion, there isn’t a better job in the ag equipment business than the used equipment guy. Used equipment is a commodity much like corn, soybeans, milk or cattle. Used equipment isn’t fluid or constant; it ebbs and flows with economic conditions of supply and demand.
