Balancing their Business is a Labor of Love<\/strong><\/p>\n

When you can whole-heartedly see the results of a product and can believe in that product and the company that makes it, it is easy to say \u201cyes\u201d to becoming a dealer, even if it means balancing that with full-time careers and a herd of cattle.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s exactly what the mother-daughter duo at Foxfire Feed LLC, Pinetown, N.C., has done, but they wouldn\u2019t have it any other way. Mother, Sandra Boyd, works as a secretary for their 5,000-acre row crop farming operation; her oldest daughter, Melinda, is an agronomist, and her youngest daughter and resident-showman, Madison, is away at school at Oklahoma State University. Together, they all work to promote and market feed and mineral and manage the cow herd.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just do this on the side, on the weekends, in the afternoons, whenever we get a chance, It\u2019s a fun \u2018little hobby\u2019,\u201d Melinda chuckles.<\/p>\n

Their little hobby of being BioZyme\u00ae <\/span>dealers started about four years ago. They are dealers for Roy Umbarger & Sons Show Feed and had been purchasing the Sure Champ\u00ae <\/span>products from Umbarger for their own use and having great results with them. Once they started using the products, they were eager to start selling the products. The rest is, as they say, history.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat worked out really well for us, and now we are selling more than we ever imagined! We just really trusted the products that we purchased, and we wanted to share them with everyone in our area. We first were using the Vita Charge\u00ae <\/span>Cattle Drench and the Sure Champ Cattle.\u201d Melinda said.<\/p>\n

She adds that the products speak for themselves, and their success combined with that of their customers has been the best marketing tool that Foxfire Feed has used. She said when they travel to shows, people will often ask them what they do to keep their cattle looking so good.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t tell them all of our secrets, but we do tell them about the BioZyme products. The Sure Champ keeps them on feed, the green cattle drench, Vita Charge, is really a miracle worker when they do go off feed or are in stressful situations. We use the drench before every show, and we use Vita Charge Climate Control before every show because the heat and humidity are really big factors here in Eastern North Carolina. People notice our livestock and our customers\u2019 livestock. They like what they see, and they buy it from us,\u201d Melinda said.<\/p>\n

Not only are they involved in showing their own livestock, but the Boyd family also provides sponsorship to some of the shows in the state. Melinda said the show industry is rapidly growing in Eastern North Carolina. Providing sponsorship to some of the shows not only puts the Foxfire Feed name out there, but it lets their customers know that they believe in them, as much as they believe in the products that the Boyds sell.<\/p>\n

She does suggest that anyone that is interested in being a dealer should use the products first, as it helped her family have a greater understanding of how and why they work. However, if that isn\u2019t always possible, she said the resources that BioZyme offers the dealers make being a dealer easy, especially with a busy schedule.<\/p>\n

She said the Master Dealer Training Program is great at further explaining products, and the entire staff has been willing to help their dealership during their busy times. Their ASM Justin O\u2019Flaherty always is willing to help them when they have a question.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe whole company is very helpful if we need something. And with the time management that we have to figure out, it is a juggling act for all of us, that\u2019s for sure,\u201d Melinda said.<\/p>\n

Being an outstanding BioZyme dealer is one thing that the Boyds of Foxfire Feed have definitely figured out. They give back to those who trust and use their products and rely on the many resources offered to the dealer network. They are passionate about the products and excited to share them with others. They truly are dealers that exemplify \u201ccare that comes full circle.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
