National Powersport Auctions (NPA) announced Brian Wood as the territory sales manager (TSM) for the Southeast territory. Wood is now the TSM for Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi. Wood is working closely with Regional Sales Manager Dusty Krepp and other territory sales managers to get up to speed. In fact, you may have already seen him in some of your dealerships.
For over 30 years, Wood has been in the powersports industry. He began working as a parts associate while in high school. His sales career started when he joined the sales team at Tucker Rocky in the early ’90s in Kansas City. When an opportunity came to move to warmer weather in 1998, he joined Parts Unlimited as a rep in Florida, where he worked until 2017. Since then, Wood has been with KYMCO USA as a district sales manager covering Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Mississippi.
Wood has raced everything from jet skis to off-road and performance sport bikes. He has competed in several motocross and Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) off-road events in past years. He’s also participated in many local sponsored club racing events and still tries to attend as many races and rallies as possible.
Wood’s extensive knowledge and sales experience are valuable assets in his new role with NPA. “My passion and love for the powersports industry have led me here, and NPA allows me to experience a new and exciting segment of the industry that furthers my career. I am excited to be working with dealers to help grow and expand their businesses,” stated Wood.
Wood is a welcome addition to the NPA sales team, and his experience will help grow the territory. “We are excited to have Brian on board and for him to maintain current relationships and begin building new ones in this territory. Adding Brian’s knowledge to the team helps dealers see the additional possibilities with NPA for their pre-owned inventory,” said Mike Murray, vice president of sales.
