Get to Know Our Product Specialists: Adam Bemis

At Ferris, our team is built on real-world experience, regional knowledge, and a deep commitment to helping customers get the most out of their equipment. Adam, a Product Specialist based in Rhode Island, covers a territory that includes MA, RI, CT, NH, VT, and ME. With a background in Marketing from Johnson & Wales University and years in the outdoor power industry, Adam brings both business savvy and field expertise to the job. “I’ve always loved the outdoors,” he says. “Getting the chance to work for a brand like Briggs & Stratton that I’ve known all my life felt like a perfect fit.” That connection became a career after a referral from a fellow Product Specialist that helped open the door.

 

A Fall Favorite

While Adam has a deep appreciation for Ferris mowers, especially the Z3X, his favorite product is the FB3000 blower. “Living in New England, the fall season is and will always be filled with leaves,” he says. “Having the power that the FB3000 brings, with the luxury to ride as well, makes fall cleanup easier than I’ve ever experienced.” For Adam, that kind of performance means less stress and more efficiency, even in peak cleanup season.

 

Choosing the Right Mower for the Job

Adam is passionate about helping customers find the right equipment for their property and terrain. Here’s how he breaks down the benefits of different mower styles:

  • Zero Turn Mowers: Provide a clean cut with maximum comfort for the operator. Our ForeFront suspension system lets the casters drop into divots keeping the deck level, allowing you to cut at high speeds with ultimate comfort.
  • Stand-On Mowers: Gives you the best visibility while mowing, allowing you a quick chance to jump off to clean things out of the grass if needed. Having a strong center of gravity gives a good ability to mow hills as well.
  • Walk Behinds: Provides you the greatest ability to mow steep inclines, and fit in between obstacles with precision.

Top Pick: The ISX3300 Zero Turn

When it comes to choosing a favorite zero-turn, “The ISX3300 is hands down my top pick,” he says. The Vanguard 40HP engine has power to spare, and when you add the suspension seat and forefront suspension system, its comfort and performance are all in one. “This machine can do it all.”

Advice for First-Time Buyers

Adam encourages first-time Ferris buyers to take advantage of demo opportunities. “Find a Product Specialist near you if you can to test these machines to give you the confidence to buy. You can ask questions and make sure you’re buying the right model that will fit your needs.” This is a perfect way for you to feel the Ferris difference yourself.

Making an Impact, One Demo at a Time

For Adam, the best part of his job is giving customers a meaningful experience with Ferris products. “I love giving people the opportunity to run a machine before they make a big purchase,” he says. Our machines sell themselves, however, seeing the excitement on a customers face when using our products is what Ferris is all about.

One moment that stands out to Adam came early in his Ferris career. “I did a demo for a homeowner with a 3 acre property or so. He was a retired man in his 60’s who hadn’t been able to mow for a few years due to previous back surgeries and his mowers being too rough. I let him demo with my ISX3300 and that day was the first day he was able to mow his entire lawn in years. He ended up buying a machine that week.” That kind of transformation is what motivates Adam every day to be successful in his career. “This suspension technology really saves people’s backs and bodies from wear and tear,” he says. “You need to stay healthy not just for work, but for life, and Ferris helps people do that.”

Building the Dream Mower

If Adam could customize his ultimate Ferris machine, it would be all about performance and convenience. Starting with the ISX3300, he would include a service jack, a light kit, and a hitch. And when cleanup season rolls around—straight to the Turbo Pro Max collection system. Adam brings a strong regional perspective, a passion for the outdoors, and a customer-first mindset to his role at Ferris. Whether he’s out in the field leading a demo or answering questions to help someone make the right purchase, he’s focused on one goal: giving customers the tools and support they need to work smarter, more comfortably, and with confidence.
