EPIC Business Essentials is pleased to announce the addition of Joe Hofmann as National Account Manager, a highly strategic role that will play a critical part in advancing EPIC’s national account initiatives and strengthening engagement across its member dealer network.

In this position, Hofmann will be responsible for supporting and expanding EPIC’s national account relationships while working closely with member dealers to drive alignment, service excellence, and long-term growth.
