The week of July 9, 2017

This week was a little different for me because my supervisor was on vacation. I was uncharge of updating the website, sending all the texts to our customers, taking pictures, answering the phone, making a power point for the sales team, and calling branches about hours. Although that seemed like a lot there was some down time before I would get the texts and call the branches so I spent time with the grain department helping them catch up from the grain rally last week. Prices went up for 11 days straight causing more customers to sell and that kept them busy so I helped enter some trucking information to help them catch up. I like learning about grain and how the market works. The printed final copy of the seed guide was shipped in this week so I will have a final copy when I come for my final review. I am learning a lot from Luckey Farmers and I all be sad to see my time here come to end when I head back to school in the fall.

This week I got the final approval on the seed guide so it has been sent to the printer. Monday I finished the seed guide with everyones final edits. Wednesday I got prices from the printer and was able to send the seed guide into the  printer. On Thursday I updated the website, took care of condolence cards, and helped pick out winter caps. Today I am getting around everything that I need to do while my supervisor is on vacation. Next week I will be doing the daily jobs in the communications department but also spending time in grain marketing.
