[QUOTE="DanielBennett, post: 9072616, member: 106490"] Get out and talk to local farmers and ask questions to understand what they need help with. Don't let your perception get in the way of what they tell you. If a farmer moans about unreliability, think about how you can ensure you remain reliable. If a farmer moans about mess, think about how you can keep the job clean and tidy. Talk about communication; keeping in touch and keeping them up to date. If the farmer moans about price, try and probe to understand more; they all know labour's gone up, fuel's gone up, kit has gone up. Quality, service and price are the 3 key factors, but you can only choose 2 of them! Ask them which do they want. Good luck. Use your youthful enthusiasm to deal with the challenges ahead, and don't let the nay sayers get you down! [/QUOTE]
