Can we not move back to gossip about dealers rather than what sales people are or aren't doing or who they can turn up and visit

Exactly. Nearly a hundred pages of waffle about who knows what (but can't say on this forum) etc etc but 5 pages of salesmen and CRM........ Let's get back to the gossip!

They've moved into the former Agrii seed plant at Rosehall, saw tractors been worked on through the open door from the road.

Going to be a chilly workshop I reckon, but lots and lots of headroom

Just about a mile from the HRN depot that's on the main road into Turriff for those that don't know the area.

very low key !

CRM

hmm only as good as the stuff that’s fed into it,

now as it seems most reps can’t be arsed to return calls I very much doubt that they can be arsed to input stuff into CRM either.

Seems to be the way of it with Netherton.
Adverts in Scottish Farmers and other press still just refer to having depots in Angus & Fife.
Even the website still just says they operate in Angus, Kincardine and Fife.

By contrast there is a Kubota dealer that has the full back page of this weeks SF with mention of having Scotlands largest offering of used machinery for sale. Just call into one of their from seven depots

Happens in the car dealer world all the time, and on the same site.

I'm not sure how anyone runs a business with more than a dozen customers without a good CRM

I didn't need it. All in my head. Used to be able to remember the topic of conversation last time I had met someone as well more often than not.

Yes but if you die, or lose your marbles (some say..
