UAmCc Announcement

[newlook]

The UAmCc has taken its first significant step in advancing the organization for the pressure washing industry. The UAmCc Transition Team over the last couple of months has had numerous conference calls in which strategy, direction, policy and the transition of the organization was discussed, scrutinized and acted on. In conjunction with this we also held one-on-one discussions with contractors as it relates to the spirit and direction that the new organization has embarked on. Conference calls were also done with distributors to first of all acknowledge their presence in the industry and also to discuss the new UAmCc initiative as it relates to having an organization created by contractors for contractors. I would like to applaud all that has been involved in our discussion as of today. Needless to say many more discussions with many more individuals involved will be necessary for the UAmCc to continue to explore ideas and suggestion that best serve the pressure washing contractor.

The UAmCc BBS www.uamcc.org/forum went live and will serve as one of the primary vehicles that you the contractor are encouraged to utilize to convey your suggestions and ideas about the benefits you would like to see in the UAmCc organization.

The Transition Team and I are very excited about the future and prospects of the organization. We are looking to power wash contractors to participate in this endeavor. The collaboration from contractors on the UAmCc BBS will form the nucleus of the specific benefits that the UAmCc will offer to its membership base. You as a member of the organization will be privy to the UAmCc business plan in the near future and subsequent documents i.e. by-laws, financial statements. You the contractor will contribute and finalize the UAmCc Business Plan. More on that in the near future

The UAmCc Transition Team members all have a keen sense of what the new UAmCc is and will be about ~ an organization by contractors for contractors. Each transition team member has been a true advocate in ensuring that this new initiative is anchored with the realization that the contractors needs must remain in the forefront. I agree with that ideology and this is the direction we have plotted out from day one.

I would like to say “hats off” to Terry, Ken and Michael – members of the UAmCc Transition Team for their tireless efforts and time thus far. They have kept me anchored in this "transition" and the new UAmCc would not be where it is at today if it was not for their involvement and business aptitude! Even though today’s announcement is the first of many steps the industry must take in order to complete this "transition" we are off to a great start!

The New UAmCc is about providing direction, education and most importantly representing the contractor - get involved!!

Thank you Beth and the TGS.

Don't be shy about joining the forum. We could use your input. There will be upcoming polls and live chat room meetings where the UAMCC transition team will be determining what contractor benefits everyone is seeking. If we don't have your input, we have to guess as to the direction this should go. Many are adamant about a non-agenda driven, contractor run organization and that is what we want as well. Signing up for the board is not an endorsement of the UAMCC or a vote for anyone behind the scenes. Its your only opportunity to steer the ship in the right direction. We'd love to see you there.

Beth, I second Carlos' thanks on giving the UAMCC the space to discuss this endeavor on TGS.

[Contractor Events]

Contractor Events is pleased to announce an additional home on the web for the UAmCc. Watch for scheduled appearances of the Transition Team at two upcoming events listed on Contractor Events!

I post as possible. I read seven different sites daily. Putting the info out for all to read and grow our businesses is what it is all about. TGS has been a favorite for a while now and will continue to be. I have spoken to Beth several times, when my wife was voted Contractor Spouse of the year, 2007, (Cleaner Times Magazine). The knowledge I recieved from the various sites has grown our pressure washing business from 8% to 20%, of our total business, this past year. That is sucess! I was honored to be asked to be part of the Transition team for the new UAMCC. I want to give back some of what I received from others. I thank TGS and other various sites, for helping us become better PW contractors. Your support of the UAMCC shows we are professionals, helping professionals. I hope in the near future, we can all meet on a level playing ground, to support each other, growing all our businesses while becomeing a healthy industry. We all know our industry is probably not the highest rated or recognised as such. Working together is a great start. Supporting each other doesn't hurt either. Thank You.
