Owner

Haug Implement Co.

While at John Deere, I provided consulting services, expertise, and training for the sale and support of precision farming solutions enabled by the John Deere FarmSight strategy and other aligned technology and applications. I ensured ongoing AMS mainstreaming and works with all dealership departments to sell and support precision farming products and services.

Our dealership was also on the cutting edge of technology and was one of the first to enter the commercial aerial imagery provider space. I was charged with building the aerial imagery business inside of Haug Implement Co. creating systems and processes that could withstand the test of time, as well as controlling all aspects of sales, marketing, and development of technology.

Here it is where I found my calling for digital marketing. I was tasked with figuring out how suppliers could utilize digital to improve sales and how to define it. I was able to blend my agricultural background with my technical and digital skills to explore new areas that the company wasn’t doing yet.
