Our goals were to attract new customers, better communicate the depth and quality of their products and emphasize their location, knowledge and service as key differentiators.

Perhaps the biggest twist to this project was creating a website that talked to both regional and long-distance prospects. Historically, Tri Green Tractor has been known as a strong regional resource for farming machinery. In discussion with their key customers we heard time and time again about how people liked working with Tri Green Tractor because they knew the people there. Their customers have personal relationships with them for both purchases and maintenance. A farmer’s machinery is critical to their business and the relationships they built with Tri Green Tractor along with the high level of service they received on their machines were what set Tri Green Tractor apart.
The new audience target will never have that sort of personal relationship but they need to understand there are good reasons to purchase equipment from Tri Green Tractor. Location matters when it comes to used farm equipment and Tri Green Tractor want to make sure that people from near and far understand that their used equipment is of excellent quality because of the soil in which it is used.

What worked best in this project?
Pulling the right people together at the right time was critical to the success of this project. As the project evolved it became clear that we needed more direction from the Tri Green Tractor team.“Sometimes clients form small teams to lead a website project,” notes TBH Creative Vice President Brad Hindman. “And that’s great for the day-to-day tasks required in the heavy development phases. However, it is important that all key stakeholders are represented at the kick off so that their voices are heard, their goals are shared and a consensus is found for direction before any creative activity starts.”
Future Recommendations
The new website design and calls to action are an important step to reaching out to both their local and non-local audience. The next steps are to focus more on SEO and regularly review website analytics for user trends. Tri Green Tractors is putting more emphasis on their online marketing and regular updates, monitoring and responses will be key to their continued success.About Tri Green Tractor
