I met Bob not too long ago. He has a good grasp of marketing fundamentals and will do a good job for this company. Most folks you meet in manufacturing tend to be really good at engineering solutions-- it's rare you meet someone who understands communication as well as Bob does. Talking with him reminded me of my days in the advertising world. Boydstun is a good company to work for, judging from the fact folks tend to stick with them for the long haul. With the new screw actuator technology at Boydstun and with all the changes in the trucking industry in general, Bob should be able to make some significant contributions to Boydstun's top-line numbers. We wish him well!
