Focus. Within the pool and spa industry and the business we provide, it should be easy to focus on the tasks at hand. We have a lead, we contact, connect, discuss, examine, and contract our project. However, as each project is different, each client is different, and it's easy to lose 'focus' or inspiration. In this session, GENESIS® Ambassador and SWD Master Brian Van Bower will examine ways to maintain your focus, expand your knowledge, and find new ways to revitalize while inspiring and creating unique masterpieces for your customers. This was recorded for the 2021 GENESIS® Symposium.
