Seed Seller Training Radio –
Believe it or not, the telephone is still the number one form of customer contact in the seed industry.
Even with the addition of all the social media tools available today, when it comes time to contact a farmer in a quick and meaningful way, using 140 characters just isn’t going to cut it.

It’s not because the technology is bad.
