"We are a customer focused company so it is critical that we
have information in the forms our customers prefer," Jon
Blasing, market services director said. "Jcrob.com is a way for
us to provide both general information about the Company and our
Golden Harvest brand, as well as very personalized and specific
information for individual users."
The corporate site includes region specific Golden Harvest
product information, overview information on research, agronomy,
company history and brand history. "It also includes a sortable
career opportunity section and postings of our most current
Company news," he said. "One of the most exciting features is
the Sales Team Locator function that allows producers to link up
with our entire team of personnel in their area with the
expertise to help them."
"The corporate website is a work in progress so we will
continue to expand and enhance the user’s experience each time
they visit jcrob.com," Blasing said.
"There is also a section of jcrob.com that is the business
processes our dealers can use to order seed, check inventory,
shipping status, seed availability, etc.," he added. "Since we
launched the site 60 days ago, we have over 60% of our current
orders placed online with over 50% of our dealers now using the
online tools. We’ve had a great acceptance and immediate use of
these tools. It makes it easier for them and more efficient for
us."
