Default Russel Ray, industry's biggest name in marketing, accepts full time position at NACHI

My long time friend and NACHI member Russel Ray, known and loved throughout the inspection industry for his great marketing advice, has accepted a full-time position at NACHI.

Russel will be closing down his inspection business to devote his time to creating a variety of marketing tools for NACHI members.

Please join me in warmly welcoming Russel to NACHI's staff.

I credit Russel (Kirk, back then) with much of NACHI's early success.

I hope you have a great time on this next adventure but I'm surprised you're just closing down your business and not marketing it for sale.

Congratulations RR! You have long been admired and well respected on this board and I for one have appreciated all the time you spent sharing your experience with our association and specifically for me. I am a much better inspector because of your input and I am sure that you will continue to help NACHI in ways we cannot even dream of.

Thanks again and GOOD LUCK!

TEQUILA!!!!!!!!!!!

Wonderful news! Look forward to more great, sage marketing advice from you Russell! (even if it is the same old, rehashed, guerrilla marketing advice you can read in any old book (sarcasm)) Good decision Nick!
