Lesco service from service centers suck, at least that has been my experience.

Also the service centers don't stock the lesco products that I'm looking for!

Not happy, maybe you should be checking out the higher price products they sell!

....To combat this decreasing margin I am now offering a low ball lesser service option to my customers. The truth of the matter is my margin on this lesser service is actually high....

Would you care to eleborate on this new service?

It might not work in your area because it is Pesticide only with a up sell of granular fert when requested. I believe we have insect issues here that you don't.

Guys I am have used and always liked the Wilbur-Ellis Gold Medal Fert,, It did make a increase in price but for now looking at this spring it is running about $542.00 a pallet. They also like to send me additional bags when the warehouse tears them. Basically sometimes i get the BOGO price and fert is fert when its applicated... Rambling I guess getting stir crazy to walk the green mile again

When this thread started I was not aware of the change in pricing of OIL. A barrel of oil is fixing to change from USD to EURO. Fertilizer price is only one thing that will be effected by this change. I hate to be a doom and gloom guy but we are in for a lot of higher prices on everything.
