Meetings and Networking

Annual Owners’ Meeting

Each spring, the owners of member companies meet for a few days at attractive locations around the country to compare financials, hear from industry experts, and share recent challenges and successes.  A highlight of each meeting is Michael Barnes’ State of the Industry presentation.  Others in the industry pay big bucks to hear Michael’s insights at the prestigious Barnes Buchanan conference each year.  ESTA members get to experience Michael up close and personal!  One of the Barnes Associates financial analysts also attend our Owners’ Meetings to lead the discussion on the members’ financial benchmarking results.  How much would you pay to have the preeminent financial experts in our industry personally analyze your financial performance and compare it to other industry averages?  ESTA members receive this powerful and priceless service every year!

Annual Operations Meeting

Each fall Operations Managers, Sales Managers, and other key staff members gather for two days to discuss the challenges they face in the daily operations of their companies.  How do you schedule your techs efficiently?  How do you handle your on-call support?  What type of service vehicle works best?  It is a perfect venue to ask questions, brainstorming solutions, and improve operations.  The power of the group is priceless as they bring back new ideas to implement in their respective operations!
