Phoenix Launches PERKs Purchaser Incentive Program

VALDOSTA, Ga. – Phoenix Environmental Care has introduced a new incentive program for purchases of company products. Qualifying products are Kestrel^™ brand propiconazole fungicide, Firebird^™ GC brand bifenthrin insecticide, Pegasus^™ L and Pegasus DF brand chlorothalanil and Vital^® fungicide.

“The PERKs program is unique because it provides purchasers of our products with incentives that may be converted into donations, contributions or sponsorships of turf-related activities and organizations,” says Owen Towne, president of Phoenix Environmental Care. “Examples of qualifying organizations are the national Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA), local Golf Course Superintendents Association chapters, turf grass associations, university turf programs and the Wee One Foundation, but there are others that will qualify as well.”

Qualification for the PERKS program starts with a minimum purchase of $5,000 worth of Phoenix Environmental Care products between Aug. 1 and Sept. 30, 2005. This entitles the purchaser to a 3-percent credit that can be converted to the turf or educational organization of their choice. Purchases of $20,000 or more will earn a 4-percent credit.

Towne says solid backing of the green industry sets Phoenix apart from other post-patent companies and the PERKs program is just another example of that commitment. “We strongly support the green industry by backing organizations like GCSAA, Wee One, Responsible Industry for a Sound Environment, and others,” says Towne. “We see PERKs as a way to continue and strengthen that support.”
