BB Industries Adds to Sales Team

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — BB Industries continues to expand its outside and inside sales team with new hires Edgar Bautista and Thomas Godsey.

Bautista joins BB Industries as outside sales consultant in Southern California, covering Los Angeles and Orange County. He was previously a sales representative at GranQuartz for more than four years and worked the warehouse at Pearl Abrasive.

 “I always put my customers first and BB Industries does the same with their customers and employees,” Bautista said. “I have known members of BB Industries’ West Coast sales team for years, and now I am proud to be on their team. Joe Torres, Jose Figueroa, Cesar Rojas, and Jackie Hoffman are a team I can grow with because they are the right people with the right support.”

Godsey adds to inside sales with experience as a business owner and salesperson with a successful track record in client retention and acquisition. He also has extensive expertise in inbound and outbound sales environments, proficiency in financial management, communication theory, business operations and sales.

He was the owner/operator of the Coffee Run in Knoxville, where he managed operations, assisted in marketing, sales, and event coordination. Prior to that, Godsey managed sales and operations for many businesses in Knoxville.

 “I believe my job/life experience is a great fit for BB Industries because I am not only passionate about earning our customer’s business, but I also desire to understand their needs,” Godsey says. “I pride myself on always being honest and transparent with my customers because if you cannot sell yourself, then you won’t have much success at selling anything. I love the family culture here at BBI, and I feel honored to be a part of the team.”
