Why My Next Big Project Involves Splashing into the Pool Industry—and You Should Too!
Okay, hear me out. As someone who’s juggled everything from app development to throwing paint on a canvas Pollock-style, diving into the pool industry might sound like I'm off the deep end. But that’s just it—I love the deep end, and you probably do too. So, why am I, a tech guy and a self-admitted pool outsider, suddenly all about pools? Let’s plunge right in.
Why Pools, Why Now?
Look, if I had a dime for every time someone told me to “stay in my lane,” I’d have enough to fill an Olympic swimming pool. But where's the fun in that? Stepping into the professional pool contractors' space isn’t just a wild whim—believe me, it’s calculated. With a surge in home customization, everyone wants their backyard to be a personal oasis, and custom pools are topping the list.
Think about it: custom pool waterfalls, swimming pool maintenance plans that don’t make you want to pull your hair out—it’s not just about swimming. It’s about creating experiences, and as a perfectionist in design and branding, I can’t resist diving head-first into those waters.
Breaking the Surface Tension: Innovations in Pool Design
My entry into the pool game isn’t about reinventing the wheel—or the pool pump, for that matter. It’s about refining the process. Bringing a tech-forward approach means streamlined schedules and maintenance plans that don’t require a PhD to understand. And when it comes to design services, I’m all about pushing boundaries. Ever thought about a pool that perfectly matches your home’s aesthetic with just a few clicks? That’s where we’re headed.
My wife Ashley, who basically runs the show in our other ventures, is already brainstorming health-focused pool innovations. Think: pools that tell you when it’s time to reapply sunscreen or systems that adjust water temperature based on weather predictions—cool, right?
Top 5 Reasons to Consider a Custom Pool:
- Ditching the cookie-cutter: Personalize your backyard to be truly yours.
- Health benefits: Swimming is great for the body and the mind.
- Social centerpiece: Host the parties everyone will talk about (and Instagram).
- Value addition: Increase your property value with a jaw-dropping aquatic feature.
- Control: Manage everything from pH levels to pool lights with your smartphone.
And that's just skimming the surface. Customization is king in every industry—why should pools be any different?
Don't Be Afraid to Test the Waters
In my experience, launching into new industries has always been like learning to swim—thrilling, a bit scary, but ultimately rewarding. And just like tech, the pool industry is ripe for innovation. We’re talking about elevating the entire pool experience, making it smarter, more accessible, and a heck of a lot cooler.
If you’ve been thinking about jumping into pool ownership or even the pool building business, why not make a splash? The water’s great, and the time is right.
Let's face it, the future isn't about staying dry and watching from the sidelines—it's about jumping in! So, what’s stopping you from diving into your next big project? Got any wild ideas that need a push? Drop them in the comments—I’m all ears and maybe, just maybe, I’ve got some insights to share.
