Story By: A2DPR / KYLE KEEN MOTORSPORTS – CARLISLE, PA – Kyle Keen Motorsports is excited to announce the addition of the mid-Atlantic region’s premier truck, trailer, and equipment auction company, Hess Auctioneers, to their team and racing family.
“We believe the racing community will be a great audience for us to connect with and we believe Kyle (Keen) is the right guy to help us do it. He puts a lot of care and effort into his marketing relationships to make sure it’s a win-win for everyone involved.”, said Hess Auctioneers General Manager Bill Troop.
THE HESS EXPERIENCE
Hess Auctioneers offers consignment and specialty auctions at their convenient, outdoor open-air venue, which is conveniently located close to Harrisburg, Lancaster, and York. Hess Auctioneers also offers commercial fleet liquidations. Hess makes it simple: You call them, and they sell it.
A key reason the Hess customer experience is different is the four days of preview availability, more than any competitor. Their auction site is secure and allows consignors to bring their equipment to the site in advance of the auctions so buyers can thoroughly preview the inventory.
The in-person auction experience with Hess is second to none. The company has introduced “Hess Report”, inspection by a certified mechanic, onsite detailing service and transport of trucks, trailers and equipment. The company has added sales and office staff to help consignors through the process of selling at auction.
“Our success is due in part to our focus on personal customer service and continually improving the auction experience,” stated Troop.
“We work with our consignors individually to set them up for success. We are passionate about getting our/their inventory exposed to the correct audience.”
The company has grown from five one-ring auctions to six multi-ring auctions, which attract over one thousand cataloged items and hundreds of skid lot items including transportation, construction, and commercial-related tools, parts, and excess inventory.
Hess Auctioneers also offer ‘Hess Bid’, an online bidding option. You can expose your items to a World Wide Market! Online purchasing has become a standard in the industry and Hess is preparing to launch a new website for their custom experience very soon. Hess has had buyers from all over the world participating in their auctions. Online bidding is currently offered through www.hessbid.com, www.EquipmentFacts.com, and www.proxibid.com.
Auction dates for 2024 at Hess Auctioneers are April 12th, June 14th, August 9th, October 11th and December 6th. Regardless of whether you may be a seller, a buyer, or both, give them a call to get started with the best equipment auction experience you’ll ever have.
BUILDING A PARTNERSHIP
Keen will represent Hess Auctioneers with both 358 and 410 sprint car schedules for his team in 2024.
“We are thrilled that Hess has chosen to work with our team to promote their great company. We have already had a few meetings with Bill, Hayley and the team at Hess. Everyone is energized by the ideas that are coming out of the discussions.”, Keen said of the new partnership.
“It already feels like we have known them for a long time. I think that’s how they make their customers feel too, which explains why they have been so successful.”
Keen and the team from Hess are already working on some unique projects aimed at promoting the auction company’s unique benefits for customers, as well as some ideas for race fans and employees.
