Despite a tough time for painting contractors throughout the country, this year’s AST 10 in Portland, OR was a success. We had close to 60 contractors and sponsors in attendance. We heard presentations about web marketing, using the latest in technology, “Blue Ocean” strategy, estimating software, sales tips, marketing tips, member presentations, shop tours, a tour of Purdy brushes and much more!
We are very grateful to our sponsors for their support and for those members who were able to help make this year one of the best ASTs yet! Stay tune for more information about AST 11 in Charleston, South Carolina.

It was a privilege to be a sponsor and attend AST 10. I am always inspired to listen to the sharing of ideas, tools and wisdom of this group of contractors.
