What’s up in May 2017

April was a busy month at NCI as we begin to roll out new training for 2017, make improvements to our websites and downloads, and held our 2017 Summit in Scottsdale Arizona with a record attendance.

Air Upgrade: A Huge Hit at Summit 2017

The roll-out of NCI’s Air Upgrade process was met with incredible enthusiasm by top HVAC contractors and their teams at Summit 2017. The new Summit format was also a resounding success. In this new approach, every participant could attend all six of the breakout sessions presented by their fellow contractors. Attendees journeyed in groups from one ‘classroom’ to the next exploring numerous aspects of NCI’s newest secret weapon. We also had several terrific General Sessions and a record-sized trade show with 24 vendors supporting NCI’s member meeting.

Over the past month, we’ve received dozens of calls and emails from members sharing their immediate successes as they began to apply the new Air Upgrade approach to lead generation and sales.
