Greg and Justin sit down with JMax General Manager Mike Rynne.
The three look back on their recent experience at the Western Pool and Spa Show in Long Beach and compare the event with the Vegas trade show, discuss the changes they want to see when it comes to pool cleaning tech, and talk about the most exciting new products revealed at the recent show.
They vent their frustrations around A&A\\u2019s logistical issues and general lack of attention around customer experience and feedback, and offer their thoughts on how the company can improve. They also touch on Weld-On and Christy\\u2019s 2019 acquisition by IPS (pitting the two adhesive companies against each other in the process), as well as Orenda\\u2019s recent acquisition by HASA.
Switching gears, they go back to the topic of the Long Beach show, with Greg giving his thoughts on the folks he met at the event, including PoolPro\\u2019s Megan Kendrick and Joe Mischik of Painless Pool Care. He also shares what he learned about Pentair\\u2019s exciting pool builder software.
Finally, Greg, Justin, and Mike reflect on the Western Pool and Spa Show in Los Angeles, capping off the conversation with their quick takes on Gen Z and the AI revolution.
