McCall’s Supply, Inc. & RUUD Team up to
Sponsor a First Class Dealer Meeting
McCall’s Supply, Inc. and RUUD hosted a Dealer Meeting @ the Marriott Resort & Spa at Grand Dunes. The 3 day event was attended by over 400 people and included a Vendor Trade Show, FAB Session, Ron Collier Presentation, a round of golf, and an evening banquet with a surprise event.
Friday evening’s vendor show included products and information from over 25 vendors. “Without the dedication & commitment of our “partners”, the success of this weekend would not have been possible”, says Hugh McCall-Director of Purchasing. “The RUUD Team led by Bill Haynesworth- VP & General Manager and Randy Roberts – Regional Manager did a fantastic job in walking the dealers through the features and benefi ts (FAB) of the RUUD line”, says Carla McCall-VP and CFO.
Saturday morning’s presentation by Dr. Ron Collier of The Collier Consulting Group was an exciting and informative session. The Collier Consulting Group provides HVAC, Plumbing, and Electrical contractors the strategies necessary to run a successful company. Ron told the group “We know the problems that contractors face day in and day out. And we know that you didn’t go into business for yourself to work long hours with little to show for it. If you are ready to make more money, have more time for your family, and spend more time doing the things you love, you’ve come to the right place. We can teach you how to price correctly, manage more effectively, and make bigger profi ts - all while improving your customer service”. “In today’s challenging times, this type of training is paramount and vital to the success of every business person” says Rick Sanders – Corporate Sales Manager McCall’s Supply, Inc.
The Legends Country Club was the home of the golf tournament and an afternoon of excitement & “challenges” for over 70 golfers. “Despite the rain, we had an awesome time and, for the most part, had an ‘honest’ round of golf” states Timothy Baxley-Purchasing Agent for McCall’s, with his co-worker & “witness”, Major Doolittle Stone supporting his claim. The Saturday evening banquet was held in the large Atlantic Room, where the RUUD Racecar was unveiled. Kevin Harvick, recently selected as NASCAR Nationwide Series Driver of the Decade, was the keynote speaker. “It was such a surprise for the all guests who were on hand to witness the unveiling of the car that Kevin Harvick will race in Darlington on May 7, 2010, and to meet Kevin” says Roger Spires-McCall’s Brand Manager. In an unexpected presentation, Ed Raniszeski, Director Corporate Marketing for Rheem, and Kevin Harvick, presented Dairen Jacobs-President & CEO of McCall’s Supply, Inc., with a full size autographed picture of the RUUD Car. “Our partnership with RUUD demonstrates that we are committed to having a “winning” team…on & off the track”, stated Mr. Jacobs.
“This weekend exemplifi es the core values that my Grandfather, Grandmother, Uncle, & Dad built our company on and that every member of T.E.A.M. MCCALL works so vigorously towards protecting & building upon…offering name brand products that you have come to trust, superb service that is second to none, and doing everything with excellence” says Constance Mc.
