IRRIGATION TECHNICIAN TRAINING

Are you up for some irrigation training in early spring 2022? What would be of benefit to you and your team? We will have the results of the January survey to formulate what our irrigation technician training will look like, so please participate in the January survey and give us your thoughts. It is always more meaningful when you help us pick the topics you want covered.
DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF "NO PAY 'TIL JULY 2022"
In any other year, you might have said "No" to this type of acquisition strategy, however, you might want to re-think it this year.
No Pay 'Til July enables you to purchase now, before the prices go up even further, and pay later. Even if it's just a roll-up of 15 or 20 small items, this strategy may benefit you. For the relatively low financing costs, you will still come out ahead. Talk to your organization's accounting department to see if there might be additional tax advantages as well. Make a list of the products you need and talk to your territory manager today or click here if you want someone to contact you.
