The snow and colder temperatures this week were a good reminder that winter is bound to make an appearance in Colorado sometime soon.  For those of us in the green industry this is our time for a little break, but it's also time to review what worked and what didn't this past year and dive into planning for next year.  An education plan should be an important piece of your planning process - what are you and your employees going to do to get better at what you do?  Aquascape Academy is a great opportunity to improve in one of the most profitable segments of our industry, water features!  Check out the article below for a recap of the November training session.  Also in this month's newsletter is news about the Pond Guy's new video blog, an update on new products for 2018 and True Pump's holiday schedule.

Happy Pondering,

The True Pump Team

Aquascape Academy Hands-On Training
We've attended countless Aquascape training sessions over the years but none have packed as much punch as the Hands-On training we attended in November!  There was an incredible amount of great information crammed into a 24 hour period.  The educational sessions weren't like presentations but were all interactive, you choose which sessions to attend and you may find that you learn just as much from your fellow attendees as you do from the Aquascape facilitators.  This format also allows you to get the answers from the experts to the questions you have for your specific business.  

Every attendee receives the very same 'Aquascape Operating Manual' that Aquascape uses to generate over $3 million in annual revenue (with OVER 50% gross profit!) in water feature design, installation, maintenance, and retail. With the necessary tools and resources you need to bid and build custom water features in hand, you'll walk away with an easy-to-implement action plan that helps you sell water features to potential and existing customers.  And to insure your long term success with the program there is a special Aquascape Academy Facebook group and also monthly conference calls to follow up on your progress or give you a little jump start if you're getting bogged down.

Remember, YOU EARN MORE WHEN YOU LEARN MORE!  Everything Aquascape has learned throughout 26 years of experience operating the world's largest decorative water feature design and installation firm is available to you!  Invest in yourself and your team by going to Chicago to learn EVERYTHING Aquascape does and how you can do it too!   And if that's not enough there's also a Money Back Guarantee, if you don't leave Aquascape Academy Hands-On Training fully understanding the game plan for successfully adding decorative water features to your business, OR if you aren't completely satisfied with you or your team's training experience ... then your time there is free! Guaranteed!

Future training sessions will be held Jan. 16-17, Feb. 20-21, Mar. 13-14 and Apr. 10-11.  Go to Aquascape Academy to sign up or for more information.   Below is the Colorado group who attended the November training.  They are all dedicated to making more money with water features in 2018, care to join them?
