Rejuvenating Ohio Farm Science & Science Review!
I can't think of a more exciting farm show than the Ohio Farm & Science Review this week in London, Ohio! It was invigorating! The weather was great and there were lots of good folks there. I got to talk to so many folks about some of my favorite subjects: McCormick products, agriculture and even a few old, antique tractor stories. You know I can't pass up the opportunity to talk tractor stories. I also got to meet so many retail customers and tons of prospects; boy, was that a good experience.
Wow, we are fortunate to have some great dealers! I would have to say that I really enjoyed spending time with some of our valued dealers like: Dave Rader of Rader Equipment, Don Shipley of Agri-Trac Equipment, James and Jim at Planet Off-Road, John and crew at D & J Sales and Service, Howard Violet of H. G. Violet and others. Discussing the challenges we face as a group and also the opportunities we have was really fun and rewarding. I can do my job much better when I have direct dealer input that helps me make better decisions.
The past few weeks had been filled with stress, but after this very exciting farm show, I have been uplifted and revitalized! Thanks guys for all you do and for believing in McCormick and me. We are better because of you; I'm thankful for that.
