It is always a pleasure for us to connect directly with our “end-customers.” One way we’ve been able to do so has been through giveaways. Each giveaway has been an excellent opportunity for us to hear important feedback from our everyday users and give them a chance to win something in return.

In November, we teamed up with EMS World to offer one lucky fan a Braun Industries full zip jacket. We were overwhelmed with the response, as over 1700 people entered the giveaway and 400 shared it with friends. In the end, the winner was Marge Bower of Middlesex Volunteer Fire Department. Congratulations on your new jacket, Marge!

More recently, we held a special giveaway for Facebook fans as a “thank you” for helping us reach 17,000 likes on our page. The response was humbling. To enter, we asked our Facebook followers to tell us why they were a fan of Braun ambulances. Here are some of our favorite responses.

• We are a long time customer of Braun and what makes them great is the people who work for them! They are helpful from sales to service, quality product from quality people! - Jason Rogers
• I bought my first Braun ambulance a couple of years ago - extremely solid unit, incredible features, and all of my crews fight over it!  Definitely a top-of-the-line machine for our industry! - Ryan Thorne
• I am a fan of Braun Ambulances because I know the quality of workmanship that goes into each rig. Being in EMS for several years, our Rescue Squad still runs Braun Ambulances. Our first Braun we owned was a 1987 Ford Braun LFEA, followed by Ford Braun Raider and a Ford Braun Express, and finally a Chevy Braun Chief. Although I am retired from EMS, if I had to purchase an ambulance, it would be a Braun Chief on a GM Chassis. The Braun dealership where we purchased our rigs is still a Braun Dealer today with the same Sales Reps. - Virgil W Bacon Jr
• I'm a Braun fan because when I'm riding down the road, I feel safe, secure, and able to do my job to the best of my ability knowing I'm in a safe reliable truck! - Blake Young
• We have one Braun in our fleet and would choose it any day to work in! It's bigger than my first apartment! Smooth ride, and best in compartment space. I love that I can restock some shelves (linen shelf) from the outside, it makes for easy loading! Braun is best in class!!!!!! – Anthony Smith

While these are the comments that stand out, please know that we read through each and every single one! We were even able to share them with the entire Braun “family” at our holiday luncheon on Friday, December 19^th. Your kind words mean so much to those that work hard to make a Braun ambulance “Built for Life;” it was our pleasure to sponsor this giveaway and hear what you had to say! We hope to do more in the future, and congratulate Ashley Nicole Ratcliff as the winner for this one. We hope you enjoy your new pullover Ashley!

Thank you to all of the Braun fans that entered either giveaway. Stay tuned for more!
