Three Reasons Why You Should Be Making Grain Offers From Your Phone

Industries around the world are increasingly becoming more technologically advanced, and there are countless reasons for why that is. Whether it’s to increase efficiency, save time, or better their communication, people in almost every industry are utilizing technology to make their lives easier - and we think farmers should do the same. Here’s three reasons why you should make grain offers from your phone.

1. Easily stay in touch and build a relationship with you Grain Merchandiser

First and foremost, technology allows farmers to maintain close contact with their merchandisers better than ever before. Using a mobile app to negotiate grain offers allows you to push out offers on the fly and instantly notify your merchandiser. Essentially, your merchandisers can go wherever you go, allowing you to stay in touch at all times.

Finally, with access to a mobile marketplace, you are able to submit offers from any location! Whether you’re in an office, your truck, or on the move in a cab, you aren’t tied down to your desk and are able to submit those offers no matter where you are.
