| Q. |
Do I have a defined sales area? |
| A. |
No, all we ask is that you call on all the corn
growers in your area that are not already planting
Burrus Hybrids. If a grower is already planting
Burrus Hybrids purchased from another dealer,
we ask you to respect that relationship regardless of where he lives. |

|
| Q. |
Can I bulk order to have enough to fill my customers' needs? |
| A. |
No, we require signed order tickets for each
individual customer or orders placed for customers on the BOSS 24/7 system. |
| |
|
| Q. |
When is my account due? |
| A. |
All accounts are due and payable July 31, 2007. |
| |
|
| Q. |
Will I get a statement throughout the year? |
| A. |
Yes, but please keep in mind that all the seed will be charged out at retail price until settlement
time. Your dealer commission will be applied to
your account based on your dealership volume.
We now offer Boss 24/7, password protected
dealer-only Web access for you to look at your
orders, credits, and charges anytime you wish. |
| |
|
| Q. |
What is my price for the seed? |
| A. |
Take a look at the dealer commission schedule.
This will give you a general idea when you take
into account reasonable final sales estimates for
your dealership. |
| |
|
| Q. |
What do I do if a new customer doesn’t pay
his bill? |
| A. |
You are responsible for all of the seed that is
booked in your dealership. If you have a delinquent customer, you can forfeit your commission
on that customer and turn the account over to
your RSM by November 10th and sign up for the
split-the-loss program. Always keep a positive
attitude; offer to run the bill on his credit card,
set up a payment plan, or use our Farm Plan
finance input programs. |
| |
|
| Q. |
I have a customer wanting to pay with a credit card. Is this possible? |
| A. |
Yes, we take MasterCard and Visa only. Just call
our toll-free office number and they will lead you
through the steps, much like guaranteeing a hotel
reservation. Always check the discount rate when
using your credit card. |
