Caliber 10 offers in-depth team collaboration, professional development, and leadership summits available to Pro Painter Network members who want to excel in Company Profit, High-Performance Team-Building, Industry Influence, and Personal Development.

What to expect

• Teams are comprised of pre-approved 8-10 Pro Painter Network members.

• Collaborators meet once a month for two hours, and decide on a schedule and meeting frequency that works best for everyone. Increased frequency is optional.

• Groups have the option for Shake Up after a year.

• Groups can decide to read through a book together.

• Each Caliber 10 team has an assigned facilitator, but collaborators will grow to share responsibilities of scheduling and facilitation.

• All collaborators receive access to Caliber 10 Summits each month.

• Collaborators will receive an orientation about C-10, and will be invited into Discord for discussion and meetings.

• Meetings center on monthly topics that tie into summits, but other questions are structured around collaborators’ weekly, monthly, yearly goals.

• C-10 Collaborators have access to Caliber 10 Specialists (“Big Guns”) list for help and support. This is in development now.

GROUND RULES

RESPECT – Mutual respect for all collaborators and specialists is rule number one for all collaborators. Disrespectful comments or behavior will not be tolerated. Violators will be immediately removed from Caliber 10 collaborator teams. All meetings must be noise-free. 

ATTENDANCE – Miss no less than 20% of regular meetings. An accountable commitment to this process is paramount.

Over-protective participants will not be able to contribute to or benefit from efforts to break through barriers in business.

ROLE MODEL – All C10 collaborators are representatives of high-level leadership for the Pro Painter Network and its principles.

COORDINATION – Work together with other collaborators to schedule additional meetings and topics.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

I'm so glad that I'm able to be a part of the early stages of Pro Painter Network. After just a few months, it's become obvious to me that the educational content and partnerships that PPN has to offer are easily the best within the painting industry. The ROI and value of being a member is incredible. I highly recommend joining Pro Painter Network for any painting contractor looking to improve their business and quality of life.

It was really great to finally have a chance to get together with the Caliber 10 group. I’ve been eager to get in a group and meet everyone ever since Nick first told me about the idea about 3 months ago. I was pleasantly surprised to see some familiar faces on there from Crank2020, and even someone I had met at another retreat a few years ago! I feel blessed to be a part of this group and I look forward to learning from and sharing with these other high-level business owners. The level of professionalism shows even in the simple things; we were experiencing a lot of technical difficulties during our first meeting, but everyone there was more than happy to help fix the problem, rather than sitting around complaining about it! That point might seem insignificant, but I know that I’m in a group with people who take action and accountability.
