Meet Ross Adams<\/a>, an Account Executive in Arkansas, whose dedication to building relationships, solving customer challenges, and love for travel drive his success at Cisco-Eagle.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ross Adams, Account Executive at Cisco-Eagle, combines his passion for sales, building customer relationships, and love for travel to help businesses thrive. Here\u2019s how he\u2019s making an impact in the material handling industry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n I’ve always been drawn to sales, right from the start of my career, even during college. I come from the agriculture industry, where relationship-building is key. I’ve always had a knack for connecting with people, understanding their needs, and providing solutions. Whether it was helping customers find the right tractor or piece of equipment, I knew that building strong relationships was central to success.<\/p>\n When the opportunity with Cisco-Eagle came along, I knew nothing about material handling. But I was excited about the challenge. I believed that by asking the right questions, I could tap into the wealth of knowledge here at Cisco-Eagle. I also knew that we had the resources to solve customers’ problems, no matter how big or small. That, combined with my passion for helping people, made me plunge into this industry.<\/p>\n Sales certainly has its ups and downs, and plenty of challenges along the way. But what motivates me is simple…I don\u2019t like hearing “no.” It drives me to ask the right questions and find ways to help customers achieve their goals. Even if the price isn\u2019t right or something isn\u2019t in the budget, I focus on how we can make it work. What drives me is helping that customer gain what they are wanting to gain and alleviate that pain from their day to day job.<\/p>\n I\u2019d say the ability to talk to anyone. I\u2019ve never met a stranger, and I\u2019m always up for a conversation, whether it’s about work or just random life topics. I genuinely enjoy getting to know people and building those relationships, not just in a professional sense, but personally too. Asking about someone’s day or how their kids are doing helps me connect with them on a deeper level, which is crucial when building trust in sales.<\/p>\n The future is leaning toward more automation, and we\u2019ve already seen that shift happening. Cisco-Eagle is staying ahead of the curve by aligning itself with the industry’s needs. To stay relevant, we\u2019re constantly training and staying up-to-date with customer goals and industry trends.<\/p>\n Five years from now, I expect that we’ll be providing even more advanced solutions as the material handling landscape continues to evolve. I’m excited to be part of a team that\u2019s already preparing for that future.<\/p>\n My advice is twofold: first, don\u2019t give up. You’re going to face a lot of rejection, and it\u2019s easy to get discouraged when doors close or when customers aren\u2019t ready to buy. But it\u2019s crucial to keep pushing forward. Keep coming back, because persistence pays off. Second, always keep improving. The more you learn, the better you\u2019ll become. Stay curious, ask questions, and never stop growing.<\/p>\n Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic stands out as a place I would visit again. The people are incredibly warm and welcoming, and I had the unique opportunity to play baseball there. The experiences I had, learning from locals, playing alongside them, and seeing kids pick up baseball for the first time, left a lasting impression on me. It\u2019s a place that truly captured my heart.<\/p>\n Family. I love coming to work every day, especially now that the office has moved from Little Rock to Jonesboro, where I\u2019m in the office more regularly. The relationships we have here, both with colleagues and with customers, make the work we do rewarding. It\u2019s truly a pleasure to be part of this team.<\/p>\n At Cisco-Eagle, we pride ourselves on being a single source for your material handling needs with a long history of performance you can rely on.
