The question is, “Who’s in the boots?” This is for me to know and you to find out. I’m wondering if anyone can guess the identity of the owners of these.
AdFarm Windmill
When I asked what would be the ideal place to take a picture inside the new AdFarm offices in Kansas City, it was a unanimous “the windmill” so here we are. In the photo are Scott Kurfman (l) and Bob Wilhelm (r).
Entering AdFarm
Continuing our little series of photos from the AdFarm open house. Here’s the upstairs entrance way with greeting committee number 2. The open house was very well attended and keeping with what KC, MO is famous for they had plenty of great barbeque!

Dinging Your Way To Your Customers
At the NAMA Agribusiness Forum it was interesting to see a presentation on customer focused marketing from a very non-ag company. Southwest Airlines started Ding earlier this year as a way to interact very closely with their customers. Jill Howard-Allen had quite a few questions after her presentation. I think that people found her presentation to be very different than what they expected.

Basically, Michael Peterson is coming out with a new album that New Holland dealers will have the exclusive rights to sell prior to any other retail outlets.

NAMA Reception Putt Putt Results
At the NAMA Agribusiness Forum the evening reception featured putt-putt golf. My team (Monte Reese, Steve Taylor and Judi Lampe) were the Earthly Beef and seen listed here in the winners position. That is until they started this thing about letting people buy points to add to other teams scores. When it was all over with we lost first place. I just think this is unfair. We won it fair and square on the field where it counts! So there.

The NAMA board is meeting just prior to the Agribusiness Forum kickoff session.
Missouri Sunrise On The Way To KC
The sky was on fire this morning looking to the east, toward Kansas City. I thought you might enjoy this picture. It’ll help set the stage for a lot more to come from the NAMA Agribusiness Forum and NAFB Convention.
