MARISSA TOPP EAGLE COUNTRY FORD Marissa Topp is the sales and finance manager at Eagle Country Ford in Sidney, Montana. Marissa grew up in Sidney and graduated from Sidney High School in 2003. She went on to graduate from the University of Minnesota-Crookston with a bachelor’s degree in hotel, restaurant and institutional management with an emphasis in resort and spa. After graduating Marissa took a job with a Montana-based hotelier at one of their properties in Henderson, Nevada, where she was the assistant general manager. Nevada was not for her, and she jumped at the opportunity to transfer back to Montana at one of their Bozeman properties, where she became the director of sales. Working in the tourism industry has its ups and downs, and in 2012, tourism was crashing. Marissa decided that a change was needed, so she moved home to Sidney and started her full-time career at the Eagle Country Ford store. She became a member of the sales team and, after working in that department for a few years and being the F&I’s backup person, she moved into the F&I office full-time. And a few years after that, she took on an additional role of sales manager. Marissa is following in her father’s footsteps and is a secondgeneration dealer. In 2018 Marissa married Joe Topp, and in September 2021, they welcomed their son Bridger; he joined his “fur” sisters Oakley and Penny, the amazing and loyal family pets.
