Only two weeks left to register for the New Orleans Contractor Networking Event in the New Orleans French Quarter. We may run out of seats before the deadline, so register NOW if you want to be sure to get a spot.
The focus is sales, marketing, and building a successful business in today’s economic conditions. Newbies can learn from guys who have already been down the path and make connections for future labor-for-learning. Old pros can network and learn insider information that can take their business to the next level. We will also explore add-on services to increase profits within our existing
customer base.
Don’t miss out! Register now and make your hotel reservations for the most informative and fun event of the summer.
The Hotel Provincial left me a message Friday that there were only 4 rooms left in our block. If you’re coming, don’t wait any longer to register and make reservations.
Call, PM, or email me if you have any trouble getting a room.
The rate lock has expired in the hotel’s automated system. I expanded the block, but there are only a few rooms left. You will have to call the sales director to get the $89 rate. Call Margie Mack directly at (504) 267-4649 during regular business hours to get a room. We’re almost out of time and rooms so if you want to get in on the NOLA RT in 2009 act NOW!
Satchmo Summer Fest going on from Thursday to Sunday so there is gonna be a lot of people and partying in the Quarter that weekend-
Saturday, August 1 is White Linen Night. Anyone interested in art should be sure to check it out.
It has seemed waaay in the future for so long and now it’s upon us.
I’m psyched!
Just on a personal level I am really excited about the incredible amount of knowledge and experience that will be available to tap into in New Orleans next week. I can’t wait to learn from contractors who are running a business, not owning a job- decades of experience in creating systems that are the foundation of a successful business.
I can’t wait to hear Terry Miller’s information and strategies for networking with other trades. That is going to be huge for me. I’m also looking forward to Mike Tessaro’s presentation on The Cost of Doing Business because that is an area that I feel I’m weak in.
Don Phelps, The Roof Cleaning Guru will be there. If anyone is interested in a roof cleaning business New Orleans is definitely the place to be next weekend. It’s the only place to get the lowdown and dirty on cleaning roofs the safe and profitable way! And of course I’m stoked about Micah’s presentation on the latest and greatest in WFP technology.
All of the speakers are extremely knowledgeable and impressive.
Some of the topics covered will be:
Selling Large Commercial Accounts (And Then Doing the Job Right)-
Russ Spence, Prokleen Power Wash
Sales Techniques and the Logistics of Cleaning Large Condo
and Apartment Complexes- Mike Cooke, Palmetto Power Cleaning
The Power of a National Organization- Carlos Gonzales UAMCC
Harnessing the Power and Profit of Pure Water Technology and
Water Fed Poles- Micah Kommers We Wash Windows and Window
Cleaning Resource
The Ups and Downs of Professional Roof Cleaning- Don Phelps
Roof Cleaning Forums.com

The Cost of Doing Business: Do You Know What Your Bottom Line Is? -
Michael Tessaro Centex Pressure Washing
Increase Profits by Networking With Other Trades- Terry Miller Tegrey
Family of Coatings
Chemistry For Cleaning Contractors- Pete Marentay Sunbrite Supply
Yep I think this is going to be a lot of fun. I’m excited to be able to present something that hasn’t really ever been covered in an event like this, at least not to my knowledge. These events are a blast, and I’m glad to see the window cleaning industry becoming a part of them.
