Thank you. Those two little words pack a lot of punch. Think about it. Even wee little ones are taught sign language for thank you or the abbreviated “ta-ta” to express gratitude. In a culture where young people seem increasingly entitled, words like “please” and “thank you” seem to be foreign to many young people.
However, as a member of Gen X who grew up in a stern 4-H family, I have also raised my daughter to write thank-you notes for everything – big and small. Extending a handshake and saying thank you to her 4-H buyers and sponsors at the fair isn’t enough. Those supporters also receive a handwritten, personalized note the following week.
Gratitude is vital. I always appreciate a judge who encourages the young exhibitors to thank their family, friends, advisors, and mentors for helping them get to the show during their final drive speech. Several years ago, our family attended the National Junior Summer Spectacular Swine Show in Louisville, Kentucky. We had not even gotten out of the grounds, and our daughter was already thanking us for taking her to Louisville to show her trio of pigs. Those two words and her tone of appreciation made every late night and early morning truly worth it.
Thanks for 40 Great Years!
At BioZyme®, we have a lot to be grateful for—especially when it comes to young people and our Sure Champ® brand. We’re beginning to wind down our 40th birthday tour celebration and ramp up plans for the start of a successful next decade. This birthday tour has been epic and one we won’t soon forget!
Our team has traveled from coast to coast, meeting Sure Champ users. During that time we’ve been making slime, eating birthday cupcakes, and handing out swag. More than that, we’ve been saying thank you. We are truly thankful for the friendships we have made along this tour. We’ll never forget the smiles we have shared, and the fist bumps and high-fives we’ve exchanged this summer and fall.
We know that your animals are thankful, too. They might not say thank you, but they show it every day in the barn.
Thanks In The Show Barn
A gentle nibble from a lamb or goat is their way of saying thank you for the Sure Champ® Clench when they had an upset tummy. Running to the water cup is your barrow’s way of expressing gratitude for the Liquid Boost® pump in their water.
Perhaps your calf looks up with a big, rough-tongued lick between bites of grain. That is its way of saying thanks for the Sure Champ® Cattle and Extreme with ClariFly®. Our animals don’t have the words, but they do have the expressions to show thank you. Thank you for giving them the products to feel and look their best.
However, at BioZyme, we do have the words. Thank you. Thank you for trusting our research-proven, scientifically backed products, which have helped animals for the last 40 years. We are truly grateful and humbled by the customers who have become our friends. Countless have found their way to the backdrop feeding Sure Champ products.
We are looking forward to the next 40 years of helping you #preptowin! We know your animals are, too.
