Welcome to the Wild West! Old hand Carson Smith is the Western Regional Sales Manager – Owned Brands for Turn 14 Powersports. His long career includes sales and operational leadership roles at Tucker Powersports and two dealerships: Carl’s Cycle Sales and Experience Powersports. Smith’s deep understanding of dealer operations and firsthand experience managing parts, service and sales functions provides him with a unique ability to support his dealer partners and the Turn 14 owned-brands.
“Carson’s background and proven ability to grow territories make him an excellent addition to our team,” said Bob Schuetz, President of Turn 14 Powersports. “His dealership experience and deep understanding of the Western market will be instrumental as we continue to expand the reach of our brands. We’re relying on his leadership to help us strengthen our relationships with dealers and accelerate our growth in this critical region.”
Most recently District Sales Manager at Kimpex USA — where he grew his territory threefold and added more than 30 new dealers — Smith brings more than 20 years of powersports industry experience and a proven track record of territory expansion, dealer network development and revenue growth to Turn 14. In his new role, Smith will be responsible for driving sales growth, expanding dealer relationships and strengthening brand presence across the Western United States for Turn 14’s portfolio of owned brands, including Answer Racing, BikeMaster, Küryakyn, ProTaper, QuadBoss and Twin Power among others.
Schuetz says Smith’s appointment reflects Turn 14 Powersports’ continued investment in expanding its sales organization and strengthening its commitment to dealer partners throughout North America. “I am excited to join Turn 14 Powersports and represent such a strong portfolio of respected brands,” said Smith. “I’m going to work closely with dealers across the Western region to help them grow their business and deliver the products that they, and their customers need.”
