[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 282078, member: 1683"] Brandon - Cypress - and all others - Number ONE: To alleviate the ". . .some weird disease. . " syndrome??!! INSURANCE! Too expensive? Damn right! Necessary? Damn right! The beef business is comprised of many types and phases of business technics, just as any other business. Some of the more important sales skills are - Networking - "Attention-Getting" advertising such as eye-popping Ranch signs, business cards and logo(s), truck signs, magazine advertising over a period of months and months - ALL with the same basic "Format" in unified recognition by your potential customers. One ad dropped in a magazine or 'parked' on a bulletin board somewhere at a sale ring won't cut the mustard. It takes money to make money, and advertising is an absolute MUST. Why do you think that Coca Cola, Bayer Aspirin, Ford, Walgreen Drugs, Sears and other instantly-recognized companies continue to place ads EVERYWHERE - over and over and over and over?? Everybody knows those companies. So why do they continue to advertise?? Because it WORKS.
