Good Day,

Here we are one week out and counting. I wanted to drop you this e-mail so you knew what to bring etc as you prepare to come down to sunny Florida next week.

If you are receiving this e-mail I DO have you registered!

If you need a ride from the airport please post your arrival times to MCO here at this link, http://softwashsystems.activeboard.com/t46849096/flying-in-or-out-of-oia/

We will then look at the arrivals and coordinate times to pick up groups as they pile up at the airport.

It will be in the 70's the week you are here. Evenings will be cooler. Bring a light jacket. For the afternoon cleaning labs we are using bleach. DON'T WEAR ANYTHING YOU LOVE! Old shorts and white t-shirts are good. I will be supplying everyone one tyvec jump suit so we all look marvelous!

Buy a pair of rubber boots before you come. Home Depot or Lowes sells these in the section where they have the concrete tools. I recommend adding insoles for comfort.

Bring your own eye protection. I will be providing rubber gloves and masks.

Bring some of your companies sales materials and anything else you want to share or critique. Show and Tell will be held daily.

We will be having lunch and learns daily (3) this is where we will go over the three safety modules. In order to keep everyone on-site and time constrained we will be offering a box lunch for $10.00 each. Please account for this in your budget.

If you have your own fall protection gear you will need to bring it. We are counting on sharing these among everyone and we are counting on borrowing yours!

Please bring copies of your liability insurance, vehicle insurance and workers comp. I know not everyone has these. We need them for two reasons.

1. To add to your folder for your Master Business Certification.
2. For registration, we will be color coding each persons badges as to what activities they can participate in based on the level of insurance.
We may be offering the ability to be "hired" for the week by other contractors who have workers comp so you are covered in the unlikely event of injury. This will be required to be able to get on roofs.

For those of you who have purchased systems and are having them mounted on the first day of the event...

1. Hot Spray is taking reservations for Tues and Wed to spray the undercoating and liners in the trucks.
2. I will be offering at cost the training items added to your truck. If you desire I can equip your truck with,
    a. 24 foot alum ladder with SoftWash Systems stabilizer.
    b. 2 50' lengths of commercial duty garden hoses.
    c. Brass Y valve.

d. Hose Quick Connects.
e. Plant Wash hose end sprayer.

    f. Bleach Wash hose end sprayer.
    g. Gutter Cane.
    h. Roof Anchor.

I. 5 Gallon Green Wash.
J. 5 Gallon Bleach Wash.

k. 25 LB Plant Wash.
Just let me know if you are interested in going home fully equipped!

I think this is all for now.

    The Total Business Package,
    1 - SoftWash Systems TM 6 or 8 Foot Cradle Skid System
    2 - SoftWash Systems TM Ladder Stabilizers

2 - SoftWash Systems TM Roof Pipe Anchors

2 - SoftWash Systems TM Gutter Canes

    12 Months SoftWash Systems Unlimited Training License
    Free Freight In Continental US.
    $11,657.00 Value for $9,000.00 ***At Softwashapolooza ONLY***

2. For those who are staying over Saturday eve and wish to worship with my family and myself at our Church home there will be an opportunity for that. We worship at a non-denominational Church blocks from our house.

3. I was very mistaken in quoting a price of $10.00 each for lunch at the hotel for the lunch and learns. I met with the hotel yesterday and they were very expensive for a box lunch....soooooo I have beat them down on a lunch buffet in the hotel restaurant at $13.95 each person. Now here in Florida there is a tax on the food and the hotel is factoring in a gratuity so please budget $60.00 per person TOTAL for all three lunch and learns. I know it seems expensive but it will be a huge time saver for us getting these safety topic lunch and learns done quickly and on to the hands on labs.

4. We are at 26 attendees and have 4 spots left. If you know anyone who would benefit from this event please direct them to the Softwashapolooza page at http://softwashsystems.com/page_softwashapolosa.htm

These are the updates for now.

Thanks,

Hello Again,

We will be having two registration times for the event.

Early Registration

At the Home of the Lockyer's - BBQ Dinner
Wednesday January 25th 2012
Beginning at 4:00 PM, Ending at 9:00 PM.

Standard Registration

Event Location at the Holliday Inn UCF
Thursday January 26th 2012
Beginning at 7:00 AM, Ending at 8:00 AM

When you register you will need these items at registration.

Two Categories,

1. I am currently in business.

a. Copy Of Your Occupational License.

b. Copy Of Your General Liability Insurance.

c. Copy Of Your Workers Comp Insurance. (see note)

d. Signed Waver & Release of Liability. (we will have at registration)
e. Medical Information Form. (we will have at registration)

2. I am not in business, just starting part-time and do not have insurance.
a. Signed Waver & Release of Liability. (we will have at registration)
b. Medical Information Form. (we will have at registration)

c. Employment Application for Beacon Roof & Exterior Cleaning. (see note)

Note - If you do not have workers compensation insurance in place you will not be allowed to train from on top of roofs. In an effort to overcome this obstacle we have worked out a deal with Ryan at Beacon Roof & Exterior Cleaning. Ryan will hire anyone who doesn't have adequate insurances in place for the 3 day period of Softwashapolooza to insure they are fully covered with the appropriate insurances. This will cost Ryan a small processing amount. In addition real monies has to exchange hands. For every hour you train you will need to be paid by Beacon Roof & Exterior Cleaning $10.00 / Hour. We have decided a 6 hour package will be enough time on roofs. If you choose this option you will need to complete the employment application attached to this e-mail and bring it completed with a check for $90.00 (made out to Beacon Roof & Exterior Cleaning) to the event registration. This will allow you to access all levels of the hands on training labs.

When you register you will receive a color coded badge / name tag on lanyard. The color codes will be these,

Red - Signed release of liability.
Yellow - Signed release of liability & has general liability insurance of at least 1 million dollars.
Green - Signed release of liability, has general liability insurance of at least 1 million dollars and has full workers compensation insurance and / or has been hired by Beacon for the event.

Please bring all documents you can because these documents will go in your company folder on file with SoftWash Systems and be accredited towards your Master Business Certification and SoftWash Systems Authorized Company status.

Feel free to e-mail me with any questions.

Thanks,

Good Saturday! Four days and counting till SOFTWASHAPOLOOZA!

There have been a few questions about registration that I may have caused by me going 1000 miles an hour.

1. The application for the Beacon Employment Option is one of my old applications for TerraClean with Beacon's logo added. It is TOTALLY OK if you cant answer all of the questions on the first sheet YES. I just wanted you to see the detail I used on my application and so you could implement that kind of filtering into your applications. You just print that sucker and fill it out the best you can! Its OK if you need that option you will be hired!!!!!

2. Yes you will need to be covered by workers compensation insurance to get on roofs at any of these properties. We have to meet vendor requirements of the properties we are serving as well as cover liability for the event and those associated. All other cleanings that do not require ladders or being on a roof will be OK without workers comp insurance.

3. If you exercise the Beacon Employment option you will be giving Ryan a check for just a bit more than what your paycheck back from Ryan will be. He does need a little more than the $10 an hour he will be paying you so he can cover his half of the social security and Medicare tax as well as payroll processing costs. In a week or two after the event you will receive a pay check in the mail from Beacon Roof & Exterior Cleaning which will almost square you up except for the aforementioned taxes, withholding taxes and payroll processing fees.

4. I have attached a picture of the ID Badge for the event. There are three boxes on it with colored dot decals. This is how we will be able to see quickly as to what you are authorized to do while in the cleaning labs. See also the .PDF file of the registration check list. This will tell you what you need at registration. Please make sure to have these items with you at either Wednesday's or Thursday Morning's registrations.

5. We are collecting this information as well so we can start your folder at SoftWash Systems to keep all of your records in as you travel down the road to your Master Business Certification and then becoming an Authorized SoftWash Systems Company. Don't get all Big Brother feeling about all of this, we are just trying to build the best trained and equipped cleaning community the world has ever seen. :)

Thanks Again!!!
