ASA’s Mike Miazga spoke to sales coach, author and speaker Larry Levine about the changing dynamics with the modern-day salesperson in his newest ASA Town Hall Interview.

Even though our company’s roots are more than 140 years old, it was July of 1992 when Bradford White reaffirmed its commitment to American manufacturing and declared allegiance to the wholesale distribution and professional installation of our products.

ASA President Bill Condron (The Granite Group) spoke earlier this week to attendees of the North Central Wholesalers Association annual conference in Columbus, Ohio about the value the industry’s only national trade association is providing its members — many of whom were in attendance at the Renaissance Columbus Downtown Hotel.

How highly regarded is the biannual cross-industry compensation and benefits study among ASA distributor members looking to stay on top of the ever-challenging labor market?

It was clear after attending the ELEVATE conference that connecting women professionals who are building strong careers in the PHCP and PVF industry is enormously valuable.  And having a robust women’s group is something that ASA is already leveraging as we look to attract more women to our teams.

Within the context of talking about the future business climate, one table observed showrooms are “staying busy, but single order values are declining.”

As we contemplate the economy at the midpoint, we are still seeing some strengths and weaknesses.

This week, Reps. Chellie Pingree (D-ME) and David Rouzer (R-NC) introduced the House companion bill for the Healthy H20 Act. The original legislation, which ASA lent its support for, was introduced by Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) in March.  The bill would address funding for clean water in rural and underserved communities that may have been overlooked by previous funding efforts.
