I have been in the automotive industry for 30 years. I have had the opportunity to work, learn and expand my automotive knowledge in our state-of-the-art service department for most of them. I have also attended automotive technical classes as well. I joined our sales team in September of 2009 after a leave to raise my children. I’m very thankful for my warm welcome back. I have always had a passion for automobiles and hope to apply it towards your needs. I have been married for 24 years. We have 3 daughters 21, 18 and 14. I’m on tour with them when I’m not here at Helms Bros.

High quality service all the way around I just leased my fourth vehicle with Kathleen Baade and I must say, each experience has presented itself to be even more incredible than the previous. I just leased my fourth vehicle with Kathleen Baade and I must say, each experience has presented itself to be even more incredible than the previous. She is knowledgeable, experienced, trustworthy, and more importantly, makes you her number one priority throughout the entire process of purchasing a vehicle. For me, Kathleen is more than just a saleswoman at Helms, she has become family, which is why I Choose to purchase only with Helms. Kathleen does not stop until you, the customer, is happy. She goes out of her way to check in with you from time to time just to see if there is anything further she can assist you with. With most dealerships, after a purchase is made, more often, the customer is forgotten quickly. However, that is not the experience you receive at Helms. With Helms, you are a valuable customer for life. John-Paul, sales manager, is an additionally remarkable employee and his excellent leadership qualities is reflected in each of his employees. He is a wonderful new addition to the Helms family and I could not be more grateful for his efforts. He is professional, accommodating, understanding and supportive in every way. He will make sure you get the best deal and that you are satisfied in every sense of the word. I thank them both so much and wish them continued success always. With service like this, you shouldn’t visit any other dealership. So, visit Helms for great customer service, excellent management, and peace of mind!!! More

Exceptional Service. very Professional. E-350 sports Excellent service! Ask for Kathleen Baade! When it comes to customer service she knows the meaning of excellent customer service. I highly recommend i Excellent service! Ask for Kathleen Baade! When it comes to customer service she knows the meaning of excellent customer service. I highly recommend if you're looking to own a Benz or any other car please go to this dealership. They live up to their words and go above and beyond for their customers. I walked in without any appointment double minded if I will buy an E-350 or 5- series (I previously had two beamers) but they changed my mind. Also, I went to two other Mercedes dealers but unfortunately had to walk-out. The financial manager('Jon Saint-Louis") kept it very simple and got us approved right away. And off-course the Sales Manager- John Kunz what a great guy, this guy knows what "World Class Treatment" is and he makes sure his customers get the best. I had to give an award for the most professional outstanding and value their customer award it would go to Kathleen Baade, John Junz and Jon Saint-Louis from this dealership. I don't regret coming here just wish I had came here sooner. Highly recommended. 5 Stars More
