9:AM – Ty Cranmore
A start-up's journey is riddled with sales pitches and poor information that can have detrimental effects on a business. After falling for many of these traps in the beginning, I set out to test and get actual data for both traditional and the latest marketing tactics to narrow down the most effective methods in a highly competitive market. Learn which were total failures, and which helped us to differentiate and dominate our marketplace... our findings may surprise you!

Mason from Jon Don leads a round table discussion on Pricing for Your Market with guests Meg Burdick, Jordan King and Mike Pailliotet Hear from companies that charge between .20 to 60 a foot for residential cleaning as well as per room pricing. How to determine what way is best for your market and company



12:pM Joel Riggs

Mikey, are you going to post who's on which crew for the RMH cleaning so we can discuss in advance how we're getting there (who already plans to have a rental car, taxi splitting, etc)? I prefer to plan in advance if possible. If you don't want to post it because you think people will whine like they didn't get picked for their best bud's kickball team in kindergarten, I get it, but let me know before we leave maybe? :)

Flight and hotel booked. I'll be in some time tuesday until Sunday. Won't be able to make the desert trip. I'll bring a brush for Chavez to help clean him up after. I already volunteered to work with Grant but I'm flexible. Put me to work where ever you see fit. Will need to share a ride, taxi or whatever.

I'm more than happy to announce that EncapStore.Com will be taking part at Mikey's Fest next month.

We'll be utilizing Damon's low moisture skills at a Ronald McDonald House (one of 3 to be cleaned) where running hoses just isn't feasible up to the 2nd-4th floors.
We have acres of hallways and guest rooms covered in LVP and tile and grout that Damon and his team of VLM Super Heros are going to make "just like new"! Plenty of rugs and upholstery too that could use a good "shampooin"

We also have 5000' of very dirty CGD and some Sisal rugs that are in desperate need of attention at our class venue/group hotel, that his team will help clean during our educational sessions on the following day.

I'll ask Damon to introduce his team, their equipment, juice selection as well as pads and brushes they'll be using.
