Here’s a customer’s heartwarming letter that we received right before Christmas. Every year around this time we try to touch base with our bull sale customers from the previous year to see how things are going. We also reach out to those we haven’t heard from in years to see how they’re doing and if still enjoy receiving our catalogue every January. The responses we get are always genuine and we love reading them. They also help us write some great advertisements which resonate with folks.
Enjoy.
The letter reads…
[blockquote cite=”Bruce Hogg
Warrenton, MB” image=””]Dear Mac,
We sold our cows a month ago so are out of the cow business. I’m 76 an want some time to go fishing + golfing with my grandsons. We used your super baldy bull for 11 years and he was the best bull that we ever had. We kept some of his daughters too, and really improved our herd. When we sold him, he was still going strong + in great shape. So you can save a little paper and take us off your list. I think you run a wonderful operation, and I want to Thank you so much for that bull!

We posted the letter on page 28 of the catalogue this year. You can also see it in our most recent advertisement.

“Our ranch has been using M.C. Quantock Livestock bulls for over 10 years. We presently have over 50 Red Angus, Super Baldies and Black Super Baldies in our pen. We have had great success calving from April 5 to May 20. Our Baldie calves sold September at Dawson Creek at the top market. We sold 1300 calves in 1 hour and could have sold more if we had them. Thanks Mac and family, your great line of bulls makes a difference in our herd.
