We sell fertilizer every spring.  We go out on the first
Sunday afternoon in March and take orders for a variety of products.
We then make up an order for our supplier who gives us a really
good deal and arrange for the loan of a semi to bring the stuff to town.
On Friday 12 days later we deliver to the customers.  We are
a very small troop and we can pull in $1500 from even our small town.

The fact that we deliver is our competitive edge.  Our prices aren't
any better than the local nursery store.
