Easy Way into Country Clubs

There is a almost guaranteed way to get your foot in the door at your country clubs. Here's how it works!

Department: Greens
Buyer: Superintendent
Lead in Product: FM 615-ES Super Transpo Wash

All country clubs use a variety of chemicals to maintain their grass. This is how they keep it so beautiful. One of these chemicals is a "FUNGICIDE" (pronounced fun-jih-side). This is a keyword they will recognize and and you will be speaking their language. These fungicides serve multiple purposes. They kill different threatening fungi, they have UV protectant in them to protect the grass from the sun, and they have GREEN dye to give the grass good color and to indicate where they have sprayed and where they haven't.

This green dye get's all over their spraying equipment and mowers and is almost impossible for them to remove, until now! Our Super Transpo Wash will liquify it almost immediately. From time to time, it may require a very light brushing. We have run into Superintendents who have been on the job for 30+ years and have never seen anything like it! They've even had to scrub for hours with steel wool to remove it!

When you call on them, avoid receptionists at all cost. They will tell you to get an appointment. Instead, search for the "Greens" department yourself or ask someone outside. This will be where they keep their mowers, sprayers, chemicals etc.

Once you get in front of the Superintendent you MUST get the demo. It is imperative to getting an order. After the icebreaker and flip, tell him you have a product that liquifies the green dye on his fungicide spraying equipment. Push for the demo, and CLOSE!

Katie Rickerl in Philadelphia and Andi McCarty in Baltimore have had great success with this already in both private country clubs as well as state and county owned public courses. They're closing about 90% of the accounts where they are able to demonstrate.

Below is a picture of a demo where we simply rinsed the tank where the 615 had dripped down. This shows how easy our 615 cuts the dye.

Product should be diluted at a 4:1 ratio. Close with 55 or 35. Only drop to 20 if you must.

Here are 2 videos of a demonstration.
