Russell
Consulting Group, a leader in marketing
and financial advice to crop and livestock
farmers across the U.S. and in Canada, has
built a proven model of risk discovery,
planning and management. Russell Consulting
starts with an in-depth analysis of your
farming operation, including current financial
strength, and identifies areas of concern
that prevent you from reaching your goals.
Such detailed information sets a benchmark
of gross dollars per acre needed to cover
all operating costs and achieve your desired
profit mark. This, in turn, serves as the
foundation for a written marketing plan
to achieve your objectives.
Our
personalized program considers your comfort
level in implementing marketing practices,
tailoring recommendations to the specific
needs of your operation. The Russell Consulting
program also includes feasibility studies
for major purchases such as land,machinery
or buildings, as well as financial analysis
of prospective strategic business partnerships,
acquisitions or divestitures. Weekly and
mid-week market updates are delivered by
e-mail; daily text messages are an additional
option for customers.
Through
its network of experienced associates, Russell
Consulting Group (russellconsultinggroup.net)
works with the top 20 percent of crop and
livestock producers in some 36 states and
Canada advising these agri-operators on
risk management and income protection through
ongoing consultation services and detailed
financial analysis. |
