About Brian Crook, Director of Sales & Operations
Some people take the easy road, that’s not my style. The true reward in life is working hard for something you believe in, being rewarded by watching your efforts grow. I’ve challenged myself at every level to be the best I can be; when I reach that goal I raise the bar. As a leader, I challenge my people, but I also support them. Average is what’s expected, outstanding is what I strive for. I’ve spent my career serving the customer, showing respect for others and being the person people can lean on to solve problems.
In my new role, I look forward to growing the Paladon Americas brand. I believe in the product and its purpose. I believe Paladon Americas can be the niche actuator manufacturer that vendors, distributors and end users can count on. Under my leadership, we will be responsive, competitive, and we will serve the customer. I’ve had the pleasure of working with some of the best minds in the oil/gas business. We have trust, mutual respect, and I hope to build on those relationships.
As I switch from being the distributor to being the manufacturer, I will never lose focus on what it means to support distribution. I’ve learned what a good manufacturer is, and how they support distribution. Many manufacturers have lost sight on service; Paladon Americas will always keep service as the foundation of everything we do.
