Farm Manuals Fast: Farm Manuals Fast is an e-commerce that sells digital representations of farm equipment manuals. Tyler Finchum, the founder, and entrepreneur, grew up in the small town of Muscatine, Iowa. Growing up Tyler lived a life of agriculture. His family lived on a small farm and owned older farm equipment that would sometimes break down. When this occurred Tyler’s job was to collect the manuals. There was just one problem. The manuals seemed to get lost or the paper would get damaged. This is what gave Tyler the idea, what if he could make digital copies of the farm manuals? It would be harder to lose and the digital versions couldn’t physically get damaged. And so Farm Manuals Fast was born. After the initial idea Tyler took†¦show more content†¦By creating this service, Tyler created a way for farmers to receive the information they need quick. Farming is time sensitive. When equipment breaks down, it is critical for the farmer to get the machinery back up and running as soon as possible. Delays could affect harvest, make farmers less productive, and create downtime. Worse cases such as a severe cold fronts or storms could possibly destroy some of the harvests, creating a dent in the farmer’s wallet. So when the equipment breaks down and the manual can’t be found or has been damaged the farmer has to reach out to the company that built the machinery or has to search for one online. This could sometimes take 9 days or even weeks to receive, causing the farmer a major head-ach. By using Farm Manuals Fast the farmer can download the manual they need almost instantly. Tyler has created an easy to use customer friendly site that directs the customers to what they need so they can get back to work. The web site harbors hundreds of the most popular manuals by some of the top brands including John Deere, Ford, Caterpillar, Massey Ferguson, and Case. The manuals range from a wide variety including â€Å"tractors, combines, harvesters, manure spreaders, balers, tillers, cutters, foragers, grinders, mowers, and windrower.† (Snee 3) These options create a plethora of choices for a potential customer to choose from, as long as the manual they seek was made before 1989.
