What an AWESOME weekend! Dealers from all over the world descended on the Adam's Polishes Headquarters for a few days of fun, training, and strategy. We had partners from Canada, Mexico, Trinidad, Saudi Arabia, and all over the US in attendance!

 

We kicked off the event with a meet and greet in the warehouse, where we also jumped into a bus and attended a Rockies game at Coors Field. For the record the Rox took down the Giants in a great game that featured the usual mile high fireworks, including a grand slam. 

 

Bright and early Saturday we had an in depth training on our newest polishes and other up coming releases to be sure that our distributors can help provide service and technical knowledge when they are released. Everyone got their hands on the latest products, so if your local dealer attended you'll be able to get their feedback now, and they might just spill the beans on some other things coming down the pipe. 

 

The group enjoyed presentations from Lynn on making the most of their shows and clinics and Ashley went over updates to our wholesale program that will help our guys in the field provide better service and selection to their local customers. 

 

We wrapped the event up with an awards dinner at the fabulous Boulderado Hotel where multiple awards were handed out for categories like customer service, distributor of the year, and up and coming dealer. All this while we enjoyed drinks, dinner, deserts and lots of laughs. As you can see from the picture above we had quite the turnout and its just more evidence of how much our little business has grown. 

 

Thank you to all of the awesome dealers and distributors that came out to be a part of the event. Thanks to our entire team for putting together what I would consider a first class training and social event. A lot has been changing around the HQ lately and our team has taken on the challenges and met them with enthusiasm and hard work. Also a HUGE thanks to the Chief Detailer himself for gathering such a great collection of people and hosting such a stellar, first class, event. 

 

If any of our dealers who was able to attend has pictures they'd like to share please post them here, and thanks again for coming out. We enjoyed hosting all of you.

Thanks for having us out. It was a fun and informative weekend. I learned a lot from the team and the other dealers. If I had another hour me and that sweet Snap Drill would've knocked out all the deep scratches on that rental car. I didn't get too many shots but I did see a few running around with cameras.

 

It was great meeting some if the guys I've only spoke to through e-mail and forums. I'm really excited about the new programs and products that are being being developed.

 

Here's a shot of my brother polishing on the tail gate of the demo pickup. I can't ever get over his 'stance' when he polishes. And then at the end of the weekend polishing off a Bloody Mary.

Quote of the day:

 

"I'll take it like Adam takes it."

 

His Bloody Mary that is.

What a great event. I have been to dozens of clinics and have known Adam ever since he moved here to Colorado and I am still learning more and more from this amazing team. The best part of this event was finally meeting so many of the people whom I talk to on the phone and on this forum every day. Thank you very much to everyone who put this event together. I can't wait to use all of the knowledge, tools, and products I had the pleasure of learning this weekend. What knowledge, tools, and products you ask? Well you will just have to wait and see. But rest assured there is some very cool stuff coming.

 

As for the pictures, ask and ye shall recieve. I appologize that not all the pictures are that great.

Thanks, Andrew! My stance may be funny but I find it effective.

 

We had a great time and appreciate the great weekend. Adam was very generous and his crew was very helpful.

What a great weekend. Nice seeing old dealers and friends, meeting new dealers, and seeing the Adam's team again. Tracy had a blast too. And the new stuff in the pipeline is exciting! Sorry, Tracy had a camera, never took it out of her purse.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? Great clinic, awesome new products coming, hands on training with the new products....... The list goes on and on.

It was great finally getting to meet everyone and put a face to a name or username. Dylan recognized me by voice, lord knows I've called him enought for info on products. He's lucky I don't have his cell number.

Adam has put together an amazing team and also treats them the way employees should be treated. It's great to be a dealer for this small company.

 

Can't wait for the next meeting.

Finally!! Time to bust out the pictures I took of this event.  Personally, I would like to thank each and every one of you who chose to take your time to come out and learn about our products, the path ahead, and the new stuff on the horizon!  Jason Toscano, Justin Ege, and Phil Yiu, it was especially cool getting to hang with you guys, even for a brief, few minutes.

 

On with the pics!

 

Just because there was a closed Event, didn't mean some of our Dealers in Colorado weren't bringing out the sexy!

That's a pretty sexy Cyclo Polisher.  Yes it has brush attachments for carpets too.

This is a sampling of our outdoor show setup.  Takes about 6 hours to get setup like this.  Even longer to break down.

I regret not taking more pics here on out, however I was busy taking notes also!

 

Lynn and Ashley both had presentations that day too.  Lynn's was to discuss the proper ways to Event Success.
