Announcment

Today I am going to indulge. Yes, this is a little bit about me. I have been working at Farm Tender on a daily basis for more than 12 years, probably 15 years, really, because it took 3 years to build. But as of last week, I stepped away; I am no longer involved in the day-to-day running of the business. I am writing this today as we have a week's trial behind us. And it was all ok. All the team works remote, and we have an internal messaging system, which is how we connect, and last week I stayed away. It was the first time ever. This is what structured boards do; these are the types of decisions that are made. I have handed day-to-day control to Megan Ruyg, who will do a much better job than I ever did. Megan has my full trust and support. So in a month or 2's time, our sole income will come from The Farmers Club. (That's why I need you all to sign up as a subscriber haha). I will still be involved behind the scenes with a few things, and I am on the board, so I have a steering role in the direction of where Farm Tender heads. And I am also the majority shareholder, so I have a vested interest in seeing it go well. I have loved my time working at Farm Tender, but it's time for "Daryl" to move on and do something else, and that something else is this. And it's so god dam exciting. Thank you for your support. Tell us about when you moved on from something you lived for years on end?  Reply to [email protected] or 0427 011 900 

Why am I so god dam excited

Why am I so god dam excited about The Farmers Club? Well, I think the Ag media is a little stale and ripe for the picking, and this newfound freedom will give me the time………. Reply to [email protected] or 0427 011 900 

Learning life skills

We wrote about a mate yesterday who is about to go on a 3-month journey through Australia with his young family. We had a few replies………. Reply to [email protected] or 0427 011 900
