Hello, I’m Kevin Banter Sales Consultant here at Germain Honda of Dublin. I began my automotive career in 1987 joining the Germain team in late 2016. Throughout the years I have received much training and certifications pertaining to the auto industry. My philosophy when it comes to working with our guests is to simply stop selling, I feel it is my job to just assist our customers in getting what they want and do all I can to make it happen for them. Born and raised in Ohio, I love the change of season. I graduated from High School in Lima and received my degree in Business from OSU. College brought me to the Columbus area in 1981. My wife Deborah and I have four children, Sarah, Sam, Sadie, and Sophia. When I’m away from the dealership I enjoy vintage cars. My favorite vacation spot is the Pacific Northwest, I feel it is just a beautiful part of the world. My favorite Honda is the Civic, it’s a people car. A lot of first-time buyer’s go for the Civic.

Hi, I’m Jim Beatty Sales Consultant for Germain Honda of Dublin. In May 2019 I chose to enter the automotive business and I’m excited to bring my extensive customer service background to Germain.

Born and raised in Mansfield allowed me the opportunity to meet many people from diverse backgrounds. I graduated from DePauw University with a BA in history. I relocated to Columbus in 1995 after graduating from college. When I’m away from the dealership I enjoy watching baseball, concerts and playing with my dog. If I were a superhero it would be Batman for all the cool gadgets he has. I have an eclectic taste in music, so I can usually enjoy whatever is playing. Vacations have me escaping the city, so I can kick back and relax. A few bits of info about me, I was 5th in my HS graduating class and I have a pretty good memory. The CRV is my favorite Honda I find it to be sporty yet utilitarian.

Council of Sales Leadership 2015 – Silver Status – Hello, my name is Stephanie Hausherr Sales Consultant for Germain Honda of Dublin. Raised on the Oregon Coast, I drove a truck coast to coast for a few years. After truck driving, I settled in Nebraska for eight years. During six of those years, I was in restaurant management which allowed me to develop my customer relation skills. I decided it was time for a change of scenery and a different career, so I found myself moving to the Columbus area and focusing my skills towards automotive sales. I love auto-sales and believe that if you treat others as you would like to be treated along with honesty you can build customers for life. When you are in the market for a new car, I hope you will stop by and allow me the opportunity to earn your business.
