The vibe was fun and exciting as we head towards the AGM in November.
Day 1
The trainers joined us.
I started the day reminding us all to make a splash instead of being carried along by the tide.

Tim and Jenny both saved their views on the rapid growth of social media in James Home Services.
Then Rich Evans a mate of Justin Herald helped us understand how we can do more with our internet marketing.
Then in the afternoon we had a open workshop on what makes a "Successful James Home Service Franchisee" and "Successful James Master franchise". (We did miss you Steve,)
