John did an outstanding job servicing our key chain accounts in the Midwest. Some of these accounts were quite demanding, but John handled trhem extremely well. Because he was the closest rep to Menard's home office and the two closely watched stores in Eau Claire, although over 150 miles from his home, John was frequently called on, with very short to no notice at all to visit and conducy re-fits or conduct in-store analyses. No matter what the circumstances, John always made it happen for us.

John was an exemplary employee while with Brewster. He was also always willing to go above and beyond when needed and never complained when he was asked to help in areas outside his usual territory. Any company would benefit by having John as a member of their organization and I highly recommend him. Eric Weltman-Brewster Home Fashions
