Why should you, as a farmer, choose Steinbauer over our competitors? At Steinbauer, we believe in research and development. We believe in having a US base of operations with sales staff, technical staff, and a support team that can help you make the right decision and tune your engine correctly and safely. Farming comes with trade-offs. An extra pass means dinner in the cab. An early morning becomes a late night. Unnecessary restrictions turn into headaches. But when you make Enlist Herbicides the foundation of your herbicide program, the trade-offs will be in your favor. Effective weed control that's ready to work when you are. Flexible tank mix options and neighbor-friendly applications, all without the need to jump through hoops.
See what you'll gain with America's most trusted herbicide system protecting your Enlist E3 soybean fields at Enlist.com.
So I go to their website, give them my contact info, get an email. They want to, you know, set up a time to chat and I take it and it's a real human. And then I was hooked. I thought, okay, you have a real human fielding these emails, taking these calls. You have a US based team. And I think the real thing that captured me with Ambrook is the fact that they see a pain point and they're going to fix it.
Ladies and gentlemen, farmers, ranchers, and distinguished guests, thank you for listening to the Farm for Profit podcast, where we discuss the latest ideas, methods, trends, and techniques available to help your farm achieve higher levels of farm profitability. Remember, if you aren't farming for profit, you won't be farming for long.
It's Tanner here with Farm for Profit, and I'm excited to bring back a guest that you just heard from, Hannah Mann. Welcome to the podcast again.
Hey, Tanner. Thanks for having me.
We so much appreciated your contributions on our tax planning episode in early December with you and Mackenzie. That was fantastic. Shed a lot of light on things and had really great reception.
I was blown away by the feedback that we got. And honestly, the amount of people that popped up in my email contacting through my website, I've gotten to connect with some like incredible folks, right? That we all share the same passion. We all want a way for farm books and farm accounting to be a proactive approach. And so I'm really, I'm glad we're starting to see this idea kind of keep forming around that People taking control of their books.
That's right. We had a ton of feedback. And the reason we're doing this segment is because we had a lot more questions around the program and Brooke. But before we jump into a deeper dive as to what they offer, first, give us a refresher on your background.
I'm a CPA. I've been practicing almost 15 years. I'm located in Colorado. I have clients really all over the US. So my husband is fourth generation rancher, raising the fifth generation rancher. So ag and accounting and tax, it is very close to home for me. I've just, once I, since I started my firm, I've really gravitated towards ag producers and that's like the main focus of my firm now i just i have a lot of the same values as the clients as i am married to an ag producer raising ag producers and so it's a really good fit and we just really get along and it's been a great business
Yes, and you are very insightful, as I mentioned earlier in this. As we drop this segment here in January, it's kind of a new year, new me type feel. There's no better time than now to get your books in order for 2026, which is why we're here to discuss Ambrook a little bit more in depth. Remind our listeners how you came across Ambrook.
I came across Ambrook, probably not a traditional path that most people have. I, in the middle of last tax season, I was working with an operator, fairly good size, you know, stalker feeder operation. They also have cow calf at the end of the year. You know, they had a bookkeeper that was supposedly really good at ag. And so I asked, okay, your cost of cattle didn't change. I don't see it on the profit loss. What was your year end inventory?
