I am a little late on last weeks post, but week 2 is now over and week three is looking even better than the last.
This week was super busy but also super exciting! I started working on a marketing prospects project. For this project I am researching our competitors in all the counties serviced by AgCredit and looking to see how we can change our tactics and become more competitive with these other financial service companies. This project is teaching me a lot about loans and mortgages and the many different factors that come into play when working to provide a loan to a customer. I am looking forward to the opportunities this project if going to open for me and learning more about the legal side of ag lending.
One thing that I really liked about this week was, a lot of the projects that I am working on or will be working on this summer allow me to learn the ins and outs of ag lending with a hands on approach. I am looking through mortgages, organizing W-9s for accounting, or going to county fairs and representing the company. While I might not be working directly with the customers I am getting a behind the scenes look at what goes into the services provided by AgCredit and how they are helping farmers.
See you next week!!
