Friday Featured Client: ASTI 2014 Attendees

Usually for our Friday Featured Client article, we share with you a company who is growing with the help of W.L. May Company. This month we are changing things up slightly and sharing with you a few of the servicers taking advantage of a training opportunity that W.L. May is proud to sponsor in conjunction with the United Servicers Association. Without further ado, here are some of the folks Brad and Todd got to see in person at the ASTI 2014 (Appliance Service Technical Institute):

Patty, Loren, and Cody Husk of Cody's Appliance, Boise, ID

After a great day of classes yesterday, from learning about portraying your "value", branding your business, and the importance of first call completes, it's time for manning our booth and meeting new friends. And of course, enjoying ones known for years..
 This year, they have added many new things including a contest to see who can replace a Samsung Door Boot the fastest..Our booth is right next to the action, and it provides lots of laughter watching contestants feverishly working away..
 What new exciting things await..

Live Blogging the 2014 ASTI: Let The Show Begin

Bradley Cantor sends us the following report from the 2014 ASTI (Appliance Service Technical Institute) in San Diego, CA:

After countless hours planning and anticipating, the 2014 ASTI program has begun. W.L. May Co is proud to once again sponsor this "business breakthrough" training. Having attended this event for over 10 years, I have seen membership in USA, as well as attendance at ASTI grow almost at an exponential burst. It is really exciting to see so many servicers here that care enough about themselves and their business to invest the time and money to insure their growth and development. Their investment will pay dividends larger than they can imagine. On top of the all the educational benefits, it's great to meet new friends, and "catch up" with old ones.

We've only begun, and already I can tell what a success this ASTI will be.
