How will attending the 7th Annual Painting Profits Summit transform my painting business?   

If you’ve been to industry conferences in the past, you may have been disappointed because most of the speakers are often vendors trying to sell you something. You may have also heard from owners who gave general advice, but you didn’t walk away with anything practical to implement in your business.
At PPS 2023, we hand-select speakers based upon their actual achievements in the painting industry. Further, we ask all speakers to drill down on specific topics. Some of the topics we’ll be discussing are...

  1. Painter Recruitment Strategies That Work – Even During a Labor Shortage
  2. Managing Painting Projects in the Field for Maximum Profitability
  3. Retaining Key Employees Through Clear Compensation Plans & Incentives
  4. Breaking Into the Commercial Repaint Market
  5. Sales Strategies That Work During an Economic Recovery
  6. Marketing That Generates High-Quality Leads at Low Costs
  7. Holding Key Reports Accountable for Hitting Performance Metrics
  8. Operational Systems That Simplify Scheduling & Quality Control 
  9. And Much More You Will Not Want to Miss! 

What will I learn during my company’s personalized HOT-SEAT? 

During HOT-SEAT break-out sessions, you will be placed into a peer-group based upon the size of your company. This means you’ll be with owners who can identify with your struggles and relate to what you are trying to achieve.  

Each company has its own time in the “spot light.” First, you present your biggest BREAK-THROUGH to the group. This is a specific tool, strategy, process or tactic that has allowed you to solve a problem, create an opportunity or achieve some result. This is your way of “giving back” to the group. 

Next, you’ll present your biggest PROBLEM to the group so they can offer their insights and help you solve it. Every painter has his own problems. However, the good news is someone in your peer group will have already solved this problem – or at least made remarkable advances. This means you can solve your problems faster without having to go to the school of hard-knocks for your solutions!  

What will I learn during the Optional Pre-Day Operations Workshop: Painter Recruitment Strategies That Work – Even During a Labor Shortage

During this 4-hour pre-day workshop, you’ll discover how one painter can bring in $50,000 to $70,000 in gross profits per year if they’re hitting their job budgets. Also, did you know that gross profits are “net profits” after break even? Since this is true, why do so many painting contractors run their companies understaffed? Or worse yet, tolerate employees who can’t deliver or fail to align with the company’s values?

It's simple: Most owners lack the knowledge or business systems necessary to out-recruit their local competitors in the labor market. The old days of “posting an ads on Craigslist” and watching the painters roll in is long gone. It’s a painter’s market – not an owner’s market.

During this 4-hour training, you’ll walk away with five (5) complete business systems for recruiting painters, retaining interest in potential hires, quickly assessing technical skills, and screening applicants. These aren’t cute ideas from a talking head. These are business systems that have proven themselves in the field time and time again. Your job is NOT to solve the industry’s labor problem. Your job is to meet the capacity demands of your company so that you can maximize your income and deliver for clients.

When you walk out of this training event, that’s exactly what you’ll be able to do. Click here and register now for this once-in-a-lifetime training. I’ve never done this training before – and I may never do it again. So, register now. Stop complaining about your hiring problems and start solving them!
