NEW MARKETS

"New ground in international commerce has again been broken in Monterrey. In Villa de Garcia, an industrial superb, PMI held the first auction of industrial equipment in modern Mexican history. Paul Covey, on hand to represent a Mexican chemical company, said that what he saw impressed him. ‘Some of these machines are selling at American level prices…that’s a great thing, because until now, if a Mexican manufacturer had a machine he didn’t need, he either put an exorbitant price on it and let it sit for 10 years, or he sold it to his brother-in-law for $500."

MAXIMUM PROCEEDS

"The job of renovating, cleaning and alignment of the equipment greatly enhanced the excellent brochures which attracted bidders from all over the United States, as well as numerous registrants from other countries, shows the excellent marketing skills and professional recognition you and your staff enjoy all over the world. We realized maximum proceeds from the sale."

DOUBLED EXPECTATIONS

"Prior to your involvement, all of the ‘experts’ told us we would be lucky to achieve gross proceeds of $1 million. That amount approximated the appraised value of Drillco assets. Since PMI generated actual gross proceeds of about $2.7 million, everyone was left with their heads shaking."

You did everything you said and more. I feel good knowing that I made the right decision and was able to achieve my financial objective."
