National experience. Local ex*****on. Real growth.
We just wrapped up the first Go Painting National Conference in Las Vegas, and the energy was undeniable. Owners showed up ready to learn, share, challenge one another and have fun doing it. We worked hard, exchanged real ideas, and left more prepared than when we arrived.
Huge thanks to Joyce Toti, MBA, Scott Abbott and Forrest Griffin for the powerful insight, perspective, and motivating takeaways they delivered. Each session challenged us to think bigger, lead stronger, and raise our own standards.
Our 2026 theme says it best: Own it. Trust it. Build it.
Deep appreciation for the leadership and vision of Shaun McMurry, Shane Sandall, and Cory Summerhays, whose commitment to building Go Painting made this opportunity possible. Also, for the partners who helped elevate the experience: Sherwin-Williams, Out of the Box, PPG, and AltaVista Strategic Partners.
Heading home with momentum, clarity, and high expectations for what’s ahead. Let’s go!!!
