Mosquito Joe Convention 2017

Our Fourth Annual Franchisee Convention took us south of the border to Cancun, Mexico! We decided to go big to celebrate our most successful year to date that included over 170 territories open across 30 states. We had a wonderful week sharing ideas, learning from one another, and welcoming new faces to the MoJo family. This year’s theme was Rise Above the Rest meant to not only celebrate our rapid growth but to set a goal of surpassing our competition and becoming the industry leader. It’s safe to say this was our best event yet with over 230 attendees!

CEO Kevin Wilson kicked off the event with his State of MoJo address to cover our progress as a franchise system so far and our goals for the coming year. Keynote speaker, Scott Stratten, discussed the impact that experiences with brands can have on people. He left the crowd inspired to bring the MoJo brand to life and make a difference in the lives of our customers through personality, kindness, and superior customer service.

Throughout the week, franchisees attended a variety of breakout sessions in marketing, operations, and sales. These hour-long meetings offered franchisees the chance to learn about more nuanced topics in the mosquito control industry and specifically about the Mosquito Joe business model. New additions this year included an entire extra day of content and roundtable sessions that allowed franchisees to discuss a variety of topics in smaller groups and a more relaxed environment. This year we were excited to induct 5 franchisees into our prestigious Million Dollar Club, and they had the chance to sit on a panel in front of the system to give franchisees some fresh ideas and insight from the system’s top performers.

Of course, we couldn’t leave Cancun without having a little fun! We started the week off with a welcome cocktail reception and dinner on the beach, which gave everyone a chance to unwind after a long day of traveling. Our highlight event, the annual awards dinner and ceremony, was Thursday night. This was our chance to recognize some of our standout franchisees from the previous year while enjoying great food and even better company. We closed out the week with an electric beach party Friday night, allowing everyone to relax after an extremely productive few days.

At every Convention, we are amazed at the growth of this company, and this year was no different. Our franchisees are the reason Mosquito Joe is such a successful business. Thank you to all of our franchisees, vendors, and staff who attended this year’s event to make it so special.
