No longer with BMR Suspension….

Well, a lot of you guys probably know me better as "BMR Sales" at this point, but I just wanted to let you know that as of today I will not be assisting you in that capacity any longer. I was VERY unexpectedly "let go" today for reasons I don't yet understand, other than I was supposedly "not aggressive enough" as a sales person. I guess I didn't push parts down y'alls throat hard enough!?!?!? Well, whatever the case, as of today I am no longer employed by BMR. It was a fun ride while it lasted. I worked there for almost a year now, and they did provide some financial assistance to help me and my family move from ND to FL in order to take this position. I have no regrets about moving….I LOVE Florida….and it got me out of frigid-ass ND!!! I will admit that "sales" was a new venture for me, and perhaps I wasn't the absolute "best" at it. But I do feel that I was very knowledgeable about the 5th Gen Camaro and it's suspension system for which I was hired. I do not have anything bad to say about BMR Suspension….the company, or it's many great employees. I still believe 100% in their products, and will continue to utilize them on my own personal car. I will still continue to be here on the forums (as "blazzin1"), and will continue to enjoy my 5th Gen as long as I own it, despite this little set-back. In the meantime, if you guys need any suspension advice, I am confident that the guys at BMR will take good care of you.

Keith

Damn Keith, that is a raw deal but I wish you the best and hoping you find even a sweeter deal in the days to come. You have helped me out a lot with advice and have help tremendously to equip my Camaro with tons of BMR suspension mods. You have always been quick to offer advice and sales on BMR parts to this board. Smh ...

Sorry to hear that, you helped me out so much with all my suspension couldn't have done it without you. I wish you luck in what's to come.

Sorry to hear this Keith, I met you as USF car show months ago and you very helpful and genuine person. I guess the corporate world doesn't respect that. Best of wishes on finding new job.

That stinks, I thought you were very knowledgeable and articulate about the upgrades you represented.

Keith, it was a pleasure working with you, certainly only good words from me.

there is an old saying "when one door closes, another one opens up". I'm sure that you will land on your feet and do well in your next endeavor.

Please stay in touch!

all the best,

Nobody likes to go this, especially the guys that worked along side of Keith. I know I would not like to suggest that anyone get terminated, and I'm sure that Keith would support Kyle in that he is a good guy.

BTW, Kyle is not and has never been the Mustang Tech!

Thanks for all the kind words and support guys. I had a great time working for BMR, and have no regrets. Kyle, Eric, Kelly and T.C. were ALL great guys to work with, and I wish them all nothing but the absolute best in life. I am not here to bad mouth BMR in a way, shape, or form, and want to keep this "new opportunity" as something positive for me. I know God has a plan for me….and I guess it must be time to find something new as far as my career goes. As I said, I am still a firm believer in the BMR products, and will continue to use them on my own car. I KNOW that T.C. will take good care of you guys.
