Karina Jones is a real-life ranch wife in the Nebraska Sandhills and one of the most highly sought-after speakers in the cattle industry nationwide!
We had a Purple Wave experience here at the Jones Ranch and I just have to tell you all about it! Thanks for tuning in to Ranch Raised!
If there are two things that ranchers are always short on, it is time and money! We are always looking for a good deal on new and used equipment but living in rural locations means a lot of time can be spent driving all over the country looking for those deals. I mean my husband loves a good farm sale as much as the next guy, but rarely can break away from home for the day to go to one.
For over two decades Purple Wave Auction has been the trusted no-reserve equipment auction marketplace. Purple Wave provides the easiest and most straightforward way to buy and sell used equipment and vehicles.
Trust me, if it wasn’t easy my husband would not have found his most recent purchase, a used Honda 4-wheeler. He got a great deal on a hard to find, clean piece of equipment that we had been needing, but we knew we couldn’t afford a new one.
What impressed me even more was when the phone rang a few hours after he was declared the winning bidder. A really pleasant lady from the Purple Wave office noticed that he was a first-time buyer so she called to answer any questions we might have about the settlement process. WOW, a follow up phone call, in 2023, who knew you could still get this kind of customer service?!?! Well, I am here to tell you, you can, at Purple Wave Auction.
We are sold! I mean we bought. I mean we are sold using Purple Wave Auction! Check out all they have to offer this week from vehicles to heavy equipment, I’m convinced you can find it at purplewave.com. If you need help, their top notch territory managers are at the ready to serve you!
Karina ranches with her husband, Marty, and 4 children near Broken Bow, NE. She grew up in western NE, with roots also in southwest SD. The cattle industry and raising kids is her passion.
Watching the cattle industry go the path that it has gone, she could no longer sit quietly at home checking cows, fixing fence, and doing all the everyday tasks wondering when some else was going to make it all better. As she became more active and outspoken on industry issues, she was asked to join the R-CALF USA staff in September 2020 as the Checkoff Petition Campaign manager. That position transcended into her current role as full time Field Director for R-CALF USA.
You can hear her almost every Friday on Your Ag Network’s Hot Barn Report, where she deep dives into cattle industry issues and industry reforms. Listen to Ranch Raised on a Your Ag Network hometown station or www.youragnetwork.com where she talks about her daily life on the Jones Ranch.
Cattle producers are her people. She will meet you at the county fair, at the sale barn, or anywhere the dusty trail leads.
