UAMCC notice from running President

FullBlast said:
I feel there is great potenial with the uamcc, but as of yet it is well hidden and I see no reason to join the org. However I think the org could be the next big thing. It is going to take someone that know what is going on in the industry and have a passion to do what needs to be done, and I know of no better person that qualifies than Ron Musgraves!!

He has help a lot of contractors along the way including me, he has spent a lot of time putting on the different roundtables, he has spent a lot of time in Huston in a time of trouble, and he brings a lot of knowledge along with him.

As one of the first posters said, I want customers to ask me "are you a member of the UAMCC"?

Go for it Ron!!!

I too think there's great potential and need for an org (The UAMCC). I too think Ron is the best choice to be on the BOD. Ron and I have have bucked heads, fought, called each other names but when its said and done we still talk and listen to each other about business and such. See Ron, many think he has a big mouth, well he does, but one of Rons biggest pluses is he listens also. He is real good at listening. Get on a phone with him, he may talk and talk and talk but when you have something to say there will be silence from him. He knows how to get people to talk, its how Ron gets info, gets ideas. We need someone that is a self thinker, self starter but will listen also!!!!!!!!!!!

Its funny some think I bought Rons membership so if he screws up I can crucify him. I pushed Ron and bought his membership because I wanted him to be on the BOD, I feel, heck I know Ron is the best chance we have for an org that is a good one in this industry. I want the UAMCC to succeed, I am involved as a member in many successful orgs, I really would like an org for my industry.

Go get em Ron, give it 100% and you'll add more support, day after day, month after month.
 
Ron, I think you know you have my support. If not, I'm telling you right now, you do.

One thing I would like to see done, is the list you posted of the BOD you would like to see in there. Get them to join, now, get on the ballot and rock n roll with this.

Ron, I'm glad you finally listened to me. I don't think you will have any trouble getting elected. Who else has the drive, determination, relentlessness, ability, and most of all DESIRE to whip this org into shape? Put your salesmanship and networking skills to good use. Forget about the children for once and make it a tangible asset to the members.

When I told you that you had to join as a contractor and run I meant it.
Now get in there and "get 'er did".

Finally...that's all I'll add. Tried for years to get Ron to commit. Finally.

Thanks David , all on the list are committed and will start joining. We have a call monday night. I'll point four guys out on that list they represent small guys that have been running successful business like your David. You will have a lot in common with them. I hope to see you speaking again for smaller contractors in the industry. Your Speaking moved me at round tables. It was from the heart. You believed in this org and you made me a believer that it could work. I hope you still believe together we can complete the goals each and every person wanted this org to be.

Thanks David , glad to see your back on your feet David.

Top notch goal Chris , you have a story first hand I know. Power of orgs worked for you, I'm hoping you will hold on to that story for the future. That mattered at the time and this is why we never know when help will be needed. I was glad in your case at the time I was able to influence the right people. It's shouldn't be that way, we should have people in place just to tackle problems like yours if they ever arrive at our door step. Any contractor member or not to get help.

Thanks Chris for helping me remember this and focused efforts for sure in the future.

Yes, an org did help me a lot in that situation, but only after you helped.

It will be great for an org to WANT to jump in there and help out there member. For starters I also think it would be good if they could help prepare contractors so they will be able to stand their ground incase they ever find themselves in that situation.

Yes a standard for members to follow. The backing of a national association and methods really mean something.

Thanks Chris

Keep on keeping on Ron!
 
After speaking with our candidate for President of the UAMCC, I want to state publicly that I am a supporter.

Ronny nuts(friendly nicknames used in my circles like Johnny nuts) you look like your going to give it one heck of a try. You really have nothing to lose so there should be nothing to hold you back. The org. Was floundering so the only way it can go is up. I support ya and I know I can benefit as many people can if you and the Board are successful. So thanks for finally giving it the Ronnie shot that many of us new you could if you really wanted to... You have my support which is why I renewed my membership last week.

Have some fun.. and if all goes well a convention down the road would be good for many.
I won't step in your way.. No matter what happens here.. I may come to your board down the road with some positive things but besides that.. The sky like you said is the limit.. So reach for it.
Good luck...Ronny

That's not been the problem.....the problem has been the response. The nail that stands up gets hammered down.

If you could do something with the UAMCC what would it be?

I think you have or will get plenty of replies for the obvious stuff. One thing I would suggest and it goes right along with your idea of running it like a business is that directors use some tact in the forums especially with non members. When you put on the BOD hat, like it or not, you are an ambassador for the Org. A PW'er that is not a member of the UAMCC is not the enemy.....he's a potential member.

It's an Org, it depends on membership to have the capital to advance the interests of the body.....not a country club.

Yes the org needs to run like any business does.

I would like to see local guys promoting a org and industry standards to each other. I would rather compete with honest guys on basis of creating a better industry as whole than to lose business constantly to fakers and liars ripping people off and leaving them alone to find another power washer next time around. It is sad to see consumers behave the way they do and it is the fault of contractors for treating people like an ATM. Most local guys here won't give me the time of day and I believe it is the same with their customers after they get their money. Maybe these guys wouldn't be so shameful if there was a way they could put all of their ugliness behind and look ahead to the future as an opportunity to contribute a worthy service rather than steal from the communities.

An org that will flip on the light switch so all the wrong doers can scatter, hopefully they will crawl back out with a New Vision.
