Clarity
“The “vision and mission” session has given us so much clarity. It allows us to justify spending time using a solid planning process to make sure we proactively get done only what we need and want to. It has helped us so much to get rid of the ideas and practices that don’t help us.”
– Al & Steph Smith, Gisborne
Having a Solid Plan
"Using the GrowFARM system has meant that we know where we are headed in the coming months. Before that we were flying blind and our results (or lack of them) reflected that – it was really hard going. The year ahead looks great and we are both so much happier about what we are doing. It is like a weight has been lifted off our shoulders. The coaching really challenges us to think for ourselves and we love that.”
– Matt & Cec Radford, Dannevirke
“Farming is more enjoyable and exciting now. I can see the way forward. I am much freer to spend time on my sports and time with my wife. We take a lot more time out together now.”
– Nick McGuinn, Taihape
“Recently we were able to check if grazing some neighbour’s animals at a certain time of the year was going to help us achieve the profit we are after. There is so much benefit in getting an answer straight away by running the scenario through the online system. It also allows us to run several options at the same time. Instant knowledge and quick decision making has helped us a lot in our business.”
– Ray & Denise Keown, Balfour
"I am working more and more “on” the business than what I used to. I am growing more and I never used to think like I do now. I always felt I had to work harder or “in” the business all the time.”
“Entering our business figures is very easy and the instant results give us some payback immediately. Any changes are easy to make and we like how we can keep up to date at any time.”
– David & Jodie Munn, Hunterville
"The opportunity to be with a larger group of people of like value systems is very powerful. It gives me a lot of confidence in heading in my new direction, away from the old ideas that were just not getting me anywhere near where I wanted to be."
– Graham Clarke, Gore
