Ideas for stories come from.... - People sometimes ask, where do you get all your ideas for your daily stories from? The answer to that is we have a customer base of storytellers. What we glean from you guys, through our staff, either directly or indirectly provides the fodder for a subject each day. 

Plus, I'm pretty curious and a big reader. And like a lot of you, we are Agricultural and Farming enthusiasts as well. Another thing I use is my notes section on my phone, taking down ideas several times a day. Not every dot point turns into a story, but I reckon 1 in 3 would.

Writing content is not everyone's cup of tea, many struggle to get pen to paper, and many worry too much about putting stuff out there that might get picked apart.

In the internet age, I think writing content is one of the most important things we can do as a business. And with all the talk around AI (not the breeding tool), I think people who write valuable stuff (not saying mine is) to an audience will only enhance themselves and their businesses in this new-age AI world. Don't underestimate the value of creating good content as a marketing tool to increase sales. I have seen it work very well for a handful Farmer's who are in the Ram and Bull selling game. They are killing it. It's hard yards, and you have to be consistent, but it works.
