Great job buddy! Marcus,

Continue to envision exactly what you mentioned here in terms of your goals and they are absolutely bound to happen, just keep doing your part to grow the 'Team Nault' brand. One thing's for sure, if I lived in Canada I'd be buying my car from <b>TEAM NAULT!!</b> :-) Nault, you’re a stud, and you’re making things happen.

You're way too kind, even if we are biz partners ;-) ...Yeah, this blog gives away every trade 'secret' I know. In fact, many pool companies think it's crazy that I go into so much detail regarding what makes our biz so successful. But I look at it this way: 1. Truth is truth. I don't own it. It ain't mine. Gosh knows, I wish someone had told me this stuff way back when. 2. Sadly, even though many businesses will read this, they still won't apply the teaching. Alas.... 3. Anything I can give away will come back 10 fold. But again Jim, thanks for the kind words. Wow Jim.

Although I am quite new to social media and online promotion of myself as a sales professional, you are probably the number one source I've used (and tailored myself a bit after). I keep reminding myself to blog as often as possible and promote my little teamnaultauto site to everyone person and source I can. I doubt that at this stage any other car sales person in Canada is doing what I'm doing here. And I look forward to being the template other Canadian car sellers take a liking to and want to set themselves after.

Being that I am your business partner I know how hard you work to write these blogs and how late you stay up at night doing so. All in the name of making the pool industry better. It is time the for the pool industry to take notice of this. You should be teaching at any pool and spa convention that is held in any part of the World and I mean that. Your intentions are pure unlike most of the people that are brought to these forums to teach. You freely give out the information to our competitors on how to become successful like us, yet the industry buries its head in the sand and continues to hire people to teach at the conventions that are only interested in furthering their cause with big profits. This falls into what is wrong with the swimming pool industry and why sometimes the sales people in this industry are looked upon as a step below a used car salesman. Keep up the good work and continue to be the voice one day they powers that be will just have to suck it up and say this guy really does know what he is talking about.
