When sales of: the mixer
feederstookgai
ff again o n .in the
'90s, the' Helios decided to drop
the bulk feed tank production.
Today the business's highest
dollar volume is in mixer wag-
ons. tis. Snowhl'awer sales are'
dependent upon that year's
weather. A hard winter
brings
about a rush of orders.
Helm laughs as he says, "1
remember in , the late '60s, we.
thought if we could make 100
blowers a year, that would be
great. Now we can make a hun-
dred every. two days . with 'a full
line in production."
"Our main market is 'atilt
Canada, says Helm. "In 1995,
about 40 per cent of our overall
sales was, in the United States'.
But the -trade name
LUCK/NOW can be : found in'
other countries. '. They've
exported three to China, seven:
to Peru, I.? to Argentina and.

Helie attributes, thesuccess
of the business to "a little bit of
everything. You haveto have a
good product, dedicated
employees, a good business
relationship with dealers, and
good sales reps." His beef busi
.cess affords him..the opportunity.
to tryoutany xriodifications to
the mixers before they .hit the.
market:,
