He shares the moment sales clicked after a Tempe bootcamp, how implementing a real process changed his business, and why he’s stayed 15 years post-Honeywell spinout. Then we dig into Connect 2025 (Oct 22–25, JW Marriott L.A. LIVE): separate HVAC general session and breakouts, the high-energy Innovation Showcase, new launches like Elite Pro powered by Pro IQ and a dehumidifier, plus a unified First Alert app experience for the smart/connected home. Bo explains why the event is free to attend (sponsors + Resideo pick up on-site costs) and how the real ROI comes from community, networking, and—above all—implementation.TakeawaysImplementation beats information.
