In this episode, we sat down with Pleatco’s Chief Marketing Officer Battista Remati to discuss the 2020 Pleatco Perfect Pool Guy/Gal Search. We really enjoyed our conversation with Battista as he shared the origin story of the contest and what it has done for the winners over the years. Winning the contest has truly changed so many lives by not only growing their business tremendously but by creating a network of pool professionals that can help each other grow. As Battista says on the episode “Once a perfect pool guy/gal always a perfect pool guy/gal”
Pleatco and longtime co-sponsors GENESIS / Pool & Hot Tub Alliance (PHTA) along with their new media partner AQUA magazine have launched the 2020 search for the best of the best pool and spa service technicians across the country and extending as far as Canada and Europe. Since 2007, Pleatco and co-sponsors have been shining a spotlight on this segment of industry professionals who are more accustomed to working in the shadows. The contest is an innovative way to honor the hard-working men and women of the pool and spa service industry.
This year’s Perfect Pool Guy and Perfect Pool Gal will each receive THE ULTIMATE $5,000 PERFECT POOL / SPA SERVICE PACKAGE that contains a truck decal makeover, new service equipment kit, great new tools, a $500 phone card, and $1500 Pleatco products. Both winners can select either the GENESIS C201: Concrete Pools or C260: Vinyl Liner / Fiberglass CONSTRUCTION Course ($5,000 value). All finalists will receive a special Certificate of Merit Award and ALL nominations receive a free "LEGEND" T-shirt. Add in a high-profile online awards ceremony hosted by AQUA magazine, a nationwide advertising campaign in 2021, and thousands of dollars of free Pleatco products, and you have an amazing incentive to nominate yourself or a colleague for 2020’s Perfect PoolGuy/Gal contest.
