October Rep Highlight: Jeremy Margeson

At Stor-Mor, strong relationships with our dealers are a huge part of what keeps us moving forward. Our sales representatives are often the people behind those relationships—checking in, answering questions, encouraging growth, and making sure our dealers know they have someone in their corner.

This October, we’re excited to recognize Jeremy Margeson and the impact he continues to make throughout the Oklahoma region.

Jeremy joined Stor-Mor Portable Buildings in February 2024, and since then, his positive attitude, consistent communication, and genuine care for his dealers have made a lasting impact. He has helped support growth in a region that once faced its share of challenges, all while building relationships with the dealers he serves.

That commitment was especially evident recently as Jeremy and the Stor-Mor team spent time with dealers during the Oklahoma Dealer Day on September 1st. The event gave everyone a chance to connect face-to-face, share ideas, learn from one another, and continue building on the momentum happening throughout the region.

Leading by Listening

When asked about Jeremy’s approach to leadership, the answer was simple: listening to those you are trying to serve.

That philosophy says a lot about the way Jeremy approaches his role.

Every Stor-Mor dealer operates a little differently. They serve different communities, work with different customers, and have their own goals for their businesses. Jeremy understands that truly supporting a dealer starts with taking the time to listen.

Instead of assuming what someone needs, he checks in, asks questions, and finds out how he can help. That approach has allowed him to build genuine relationships with the dealers throughout his region.

For Jeremy, communication also isn’t limited to times when something goes wrong. He is there for the good moments, too. Whether a dealer has a question, needs assistance, reaches an important goal, or closes a great sale, Jeremy makes an effort to stay connected.

It’s that consistency that has helped make him someone his dealers know they can count on.

A Dealer’s Perspective

Brent with MC Sheds and More in Shawnee, Oklahoma, has experienced Jeremy’s support firsthand.

Brent shared:

“Jeremy has been a good sales rep. He is always faithful to check in to see if we need anything or if there's any way that he could help. Throughout the month he is always sending encouraging text messages to encourage us to keep pushing to exceed our goals, and he's always quick to congratulate when we have a good month or see we have made a good sale.”

That feedback reflects what makes Jeremy’s approach so valuable.

He isn’t only focused on numbers or the next sale. He pays attention to the people behind those numbers. His encouraging messages help motivate dealers to continue working toward their goals, while his willingness to celebrate their successes reminds them that their hard work is noticed.

Sometimes support can be as simple as asking what someone needs or sending a quick congratulations after a great sale. Jeremy makes those moments a regular part of the way he works with his dealers.

Coming Together for Oklahoma Dealer Day

Last month, Jeremy and the Stor-Mor team came together with dealers for Oklahoma Dealer Day on September 1st.

Dealer Day provided an opportunity to step away from the normal day-to-day routine and spend time together as a group. Dealers were able to connect with the Stor-Mor team and one another, exchange ideas, ask questions, and have conversations about their businesses and the opportunities ahead.

For Jeremy, an event like Dealer Day fits perfectly with the way he approaches his role.

His leadership is centered around listening and building relationships, and having everyone together creates even more opportunities for those conversations to happen. While regular calls, texts, and check-ins are important, there is something different about getting everyone together face-to-face.

It also gives dealers the opportunity to learn from each other. They can share what's working in their own businesses, hear different perspectives, and build relationships with other people who understand the industry.

The Oklahoma Dealer Day was another reminder that growth isn't just about selling more buildings. It's also about creating strong partnerships and making sure our dealers have the support and relationships they need to keep moving forward.

For a region that has experienced so much positive change, getting everyone together was a great way to recognize that progress while continuing to look toward what's next.

Helping Turn Around the Oklahoma Region

One of the biggest reasons Jeremy deserves recognition is the progress that has taken place throughout his region.

Oklahoma was once a challenging market for Stor-Mor, and the potential for the region wasn't always clear. Since stepping into his role, Jeremy has worked alongside his dealers to help change that.

He has done an awesome job of supporting his current dealers while continuing to look for new opportunities for growth.

And the key word is alongside.

The progress in Oklahoma isn't the result of one person. Jeremy and his dealers have worked together to take a once-struggling region and turn it into something we weren't sure would be possible.

That teamwork reflects Jeremy's leadership style perfectly.

He listens to the people he serves, builds relationships with them, and works with them toward shared goals. Rather than simply telling dealers what they should do, he makes an effort to understand their businesses and figure out how Stor-Mor can best support them.

Those relationships have helped create momentum throughout Oklahoma, and Dealer Day was a chance to bring many of those relationships together in one place.

Supporting Today While Looking Toward Tomorrow

One of Jeremy's strengths is his ability to balance supporting the dealers he already has with continuing to look for opportunities to grow the region.

Both are important.

Growth isn't just about finding the next opportunity. It also means investing in the people who are already representing Stor-Mor in their communities and helping them build stronger businesses.

Jeremy makes that a priority.

His current dealers know they can reach out when they need something. He communicates with them consistently, encourages them throughout the month, and celebrates their successes.

At the same time, he continues looking ahead.

That combination of taking care of existing relationships while pursuing new opportunities has helped build a stronger foundation for Stor-Mor in Oklahoma.

A Positive Attitude That Makes a Difference

When asked what makes Jeremy stand out, two qualities immediately came to mind: his positive attitude and communication.

Those characteristics show up in both big and small ways.

Sales is naturally goal-driven. There are monthly numbers to reach, customers to serve, challenges to work through, and new opportunities to pursue. Having someone who brings a positive attitude to those situations can make a real difference.

Jeremy is quick to recognize a dealer when they have a great month or make a good sale. When there's still work to do, he's there encouraging them to keep pushing.

That consistency helps create an environment where dealers know their efforts are seen and their successes are worth celebrating.

It also makes Jeremy more than just the person they call when they have a problem. He becomes someone who is genuinely invested in seeing them succeed.

More Than a Sales Representative

At the end of the day, Jeremy's impact isn't only about sales numbers or regional growth.

It's about how he treats people.

Jeremy has been described as one of the kindest and most genuine people you could meet, and those qualities are reflected in the way he works.

He listens. He communicates. He encourages his dealers. He celebrates their wins. He looks for ways to help.

Those qualities have helped Jeremy build trust throughout his region and have played an important role in the progress Oklahoma has made.

Our sales representatives are an important connection between Stor-Mor and the independent dealers serving customers in communities across the country. Having representatives who genuinely care about those relationships makes a difference.

Jeremy has demonstrated that since joining the Stor-Mor family in 2024.

Thank You, Jeremy!

Jeremy, your Stor-Mor family appreciates and values you so much.

Thank you for the positivity you bring to your region, the encouragement you give your dealers, and the time you take to listen to the people you serve. Thank you for supporting your current dealers while continuing to look for new opportunities to grow.

We also want to thank everyone who joined us for Oklahoma Dealer Day on September 1st. It was a great opportunity to bring the region together, strengthen relationships, and celebrate the progress being made in Oklahoma.

There is a lot to be proud of, and we are excited to see what Jeremy and his dealers accomplish next.

Congratulations to our October Rep Highlight, Jeremy Margeson! Jeremy, thank you for everything you have done and continue to do for your dealers and the Stor-Mor family.
