Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a Dealer and Certified
Installer?
The main difference is that a Certified Installer is trained
for two days at our offices in Denver, and also receives leads from the
corporate office right away.
What’s required to maintain my Dealership status?
Dealers must actively and consistently purchase turf from ProGreen each and
every year.
Why do other artificial grass
companies charge up to $30,000 for a dealership?
Dealership prices vary greatly and most of our competitors charge very high
start up fees. ProGreen believes that you will achieve greater and faster
success by spending more of your initial capital on product and local
advertising as opposed to us charging you exorbitant dealership fees.
ProGreen is not successful unless you are successful! Before signing on
with any company do your due diligence. Make sure you talk to many
successful dealers before you invest any money.
How do I pay for rolls of ProGreen
Grass and accessories?
ProGreen accepts major credit cards, certified checks and wire transfers.
We do require 100% pre-payment on all orders. This helps keep our prices
down for you and our customers.
Can I test the market before I
become a ProGreen Dealer?
Yes. We can send you promotional items and brochures for only $50.
Your customers will then buy through ProGreen and we will then send you a
finder's fee.
Will I receive an exclusive
territory?
We
do not initially offer exclusive territories. However, once you build a
history of consistent sales with ProGreen we can make arrangements for
exclusivity. You have to walk before you run. It's possible that
there may be other ProGreen Dealers in your area. If this happens we
encourage you to co-op with other those other Dealers.
Are there any restrictions on
selling ProGreen Grass outside of my geographical area?
We
do have a few exclusive territories. You will be given the areas that are
restricted before you sign on as a ProGreen Dealer. If you encounter a
sale in one of these restricted areas you will need to contact that exclusive
dealer. If this happens feel free to negotiate a deal for a finder's fee./div>
Will I receive leads from ProGreen's Corporate Office?
Leads
will be distributed to Certified Installers immediately. Dealers will
receive leads from our corporate office on a merit basis after a proven sales
history.
What do I need to know about the
competition?
ProGreen has been in the artificial grass business since 1987, almost twice as
long as some of the main trade groups in the synthetic turf industry! We
are the oldest family-owned company still currently in business. There are
a few other big players in the market, but historically, most artificial grass
companies come and go rapidly. What sets ProGreen apart from our
competitors is the length of time we've been in business, our proprietary
products, and our extensive knowledge of installation techniques. We also
pride ourselves on company-wide dedication to quality, reliability, performance,
service, and support. We publicly offer over 30 different turf products
for a wide range of applications such as golf greens, tee lines, landscaping,
bocce ball courts, tennis courts, dog runs, green roofs, playgrounds, traffic
medians, trade shows, retail displays, athletic fields and more.
Do you offer on-going training?
Yes, we have a dedicated dealer website and e-bulletin board that will keep you
up to date on any breaking news, the latest products, new/updated installation
techniques and business strategies.
What kind of equipment will I
need?
You
will need to have either a truck or a work van. Basic installation
equipment includes spreaders, landscape edging, utility knives, wheelbarrows and
shovels. Additional equipment that may be needed or helpul includes a
Shindaiwa Powerbroom, a compactor, a water-roller, a sod-cutter, and for larger
jobs a walk-behind street sweeper with nylon brushes only. These
items can usually be rented while you grow your business, it may then become
more economical to buy the equipment instead of renting it.
What steps do I take to become a
ProGreen Dealer?
The
first step is to fill out the questionnaire below. Our sales manager, Bob
Wolta, will then review your responses to assess which kind of ProGreen
Dealership Program will best suit you. The next step is to sign a ProGreen
Dealer Agreement and place your first order. That's it! Get in on
this established, yet emerging market today!
