Thank-you Thad for hosting the NOLA event.
Let me repeat…THANK-YOU THAD!
You have put together one of the best events I have ever attended in my nearly 30 years of window cleaning. The speakers you managed to bring together under one roof at a single event has been like getting a drink from a fire hose.
From the opening salvo where Curt Kemp talked about thinking outside the bucket, Followed by Jason Evers who really raised awareness about how to create small business success, by telling us to “Embrace our competition,” you piled on even more.
Charley Caldwell overwhelmed this writer, and I suspect, the other attendees with his absolute command of the internet and how to optimize our place within it. After I thought that was the highlight of the day, Chris Lambrinides stepped up and told us how to use the force to increase our sales through E-mail marketing.
Shawn Gavin was not only gracious enough to provide a thorough Q & A session about pure water and water fed pole technology, he set up a “hands on” demonstration where the event participants could use a working system for themselves…Thank-you Shawn.
Kevin Dubrosky wowed the group when he came out and told us point blank that time has nothing to do with price, forget about obsessing with quality, and we all need to know that we need to realize that we should obsess over what our customers’ preferences are instead of our obsession with quality.
AC Lockyer closed out the day’s speakers by telling us that “We gotta figure out who we are, who we want to be, and position ourselves to be the best.” We cannot lose when we force our competitors to play the game we create in our own markets.
All these speakers added details to the thin synopsis I have posted here, but everyone in attendance took away information to help us grow our businesses…and ourselves immediately. Imagine someone telling you to shut down your business, re-open it and increase your sales 30%???
And then…telling you exactly how to do it!
Thad has worked tirelessly to bring together this event. Thad has made a great professional and personal sacrifice on our behalf with little to no appreciation for what it took to bring this together.
I want to tell Thad That I appreciate all the work, stress and BS he has put up with to make this one of the greatest events I have been a part of in my nearly 30 years in this industry.
Thank-you Thad!!!
