October 15 GIPHCC luncheon meeting
Where: Primo South
When: 11:30 registration; noon lunch; 12:30
Speaker: Michael Kaplan
Topic: The EMyth Perspective
Cost: $25 per person
Successfully building a business requires an owner to take a high-level, strategic view, and see the business from an integrated, holistic perspective. In this talk you will learn about the Three Personalities of a business owner and the Entrepreneurial Seizure. You will learn the most common frustrations of business owners and about 7 dynamics, which encompass every activity you do in your business. You will learn how you can use these dynamics to systematize your business, gain better control, make more profit, regain work/life balance and have a business that runs like a well-oiled machine.
Please be sure to register for this meeting with Ann at [email protected] by Fri., Oct. 10th.

K.I.S.S. and Building GIPHCC Membership GIPHCC needs to always be encouraging others in the industry to join its ranks. Often others feel that the organization really doesn't have much to offer them. Talking points to encourage them to join the group include the following: - GIPHCC and PHCC speak for the industry on Capitol Hill, on industry issues, small business issues, and involvement opportunities.
- Discounts for apprentices enrolled at Mechanical Skills
- PHCC members are in the Indiana House of Representatives
- Voting member of the Plumbing Code Review Committee
- Member on State Plumbing Commission
- Lobbyist
- Updates on new laws
- Education --both for contractors and for apprentices
- discounts on fuel at Speedway Super Fleet, etc.
- Promotion of the "Call a Licensed Plumber. It's the Law.
- FLAG--Find the License, Attorney General
- newsletters, web site, 24/7 connection with others in the industry
Now comes the K.I.S.S. philosophy, (Keep It Simple, Stupid); in order to encourage others to join the group, GIPHCC will offer a free visit to a lunch meeting both for the guest and for the host member. Brochure materials will be available for the guest. They will have a red name tag so that regular members will recognize their guest status and welcome them and make them feel at home in the group. So, show your pride in GIPHCC: invite a guest to our meeting, and get a free meal yourself in the process. |
President's Letter
Dear Friends,
The IAPHCC convention was once again a great success. It was packed with educational and networking opportunities. I know I'll never take another picture without my head tilted 1% to the right (you had to be there). Our thanks go out to all who participated in making this a fantastic and profitable event. We are especially grateful to our sponsors who so willingly give to support our industry.
It's been a while since we've all gotten together for lunch. We have a great meeting planned in October, so we look forward to seeing everyone at GIPHCC lunch meeting on Octob er 15th at Primo's. Michael Kaplan, an E Myth Coaching & Consulting specialist will be speaking. Michael provides business coaching and training to create extraordinary growth, higher income, and a superior quality of life. This event promises to be exciting and profitable for all who attend. I look forward to seeing you there.
Brian Lebo,
GIPHCC President
