Shareholders set new record

Fargo, ND – The 2009 AdFarm North Dakota farm has attracted a record-high 130 shareholders. AdFarm North Dakota Farm Coordinator Erin Jarolimek announced results of the share offering campaign, which began April 8 and concluded April 24. The previous record was 99 shareholders, set in 2008. Jarolimek noted that the 130 shareholders bought an average of 4.37 shares per person. She says: “When you consider the maximum is five shares per person, it’s clear that our employee/shareholders embrace what we’re trying to accomplish.”

AdFarm North Dakota Farm Boss Les Kahl says: “Our 2009 goal was exactly 130 shareholders, which we knew was a stretch goal. My compliments to Erin, team leaders from each office and the 130 shareholders who’ve risked their own money in this educational experience. Our AdFarm brand promise is “Driving Deeper.” This level of participation is a testimony to our employees and their willingness to be part of what we’re trying to accomplish as an advertising agency focused on producing profitable results for agriculural clients.”

Kahl indicated that his next steps are to select the 2009 AdFarm North Dakota marketing committee and plan the 2009 AdFarm North Dakota Farm Tour. He adds,” We’re also hoping that the rain in North Dakota will stop soon, allowing us to plant our 2009 crop, pinto beans, in a timely manner.”

Stay tuned. The 2009 AdFarm North Dakota adventure is about to begin.
