Tag Incentives for your Bull Buyers


Bull sale time naturally gets many people talking and thinking about the Canadian Angus Rancher Endorsed tag program. A registered Angus bull transferred into your name is all that it takes to qualify to purchase the tags. The tags visually and electronically identify calves with minimum 50% Angus genetics, the only guarantee of Angus genetics aside from registration papers for purebreds. 

Many Canadian Angus Association members take advantage of our tag gift certificate program. The gift certificates (which can be downloaded at http://cdnangus.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/CAAFORM25-Tag_Gift_Certificate-copy.pdf) provide an incentive for customers to purchase your bulls or make a nice thank-you gift for your customers. Members can choose to pay all or a portion of their bull customer's Angus tag order with the gift certificate. This is a popular way of thanking bull buyers for their purchase and to introduce new customers to the Angus tag program. 

Some of our members have taken this idea even further and offer one free bag of tags with every registered bull that they sell. This is a fantastic way to set your bull sale apart and offer your customers immediate access to their tags. The Canadian Angus Association offers additional support to these members by providing staff at the bull sale to process the tag orders on site.
