Build the Climb
Three Truths
One Law
One Law
Opening keynote | Kenny Chapman
Three Truths and One Law: The Service Business of Today
Every successful service business leader believes in momentum. They would not have built what they built without it. But belief alone does not hold under pressure, and most businesses lose momentum a little at a time. Kenny Chapman will break down three truths that separate businesses with sustained momentum from businesses that stay busy, then introduce one law that turns those truths into action when things get hard. The room will put the Three R’s Reset into practice and carry it through every session that follows.
See key takeaways
- Uncover three truths that reveal what momentum costs and why businesses can lose it without seeing the loss.
- Learn the law that turns belief into action when pressure hits and momentum gets tested.
- Put the Three R’s Reset into practice and carry the tool through Acceleration Days and beyond.
Session | Chris Crew
One Shot
Your customer may call once every three to seven years. One visit can shape the review, the referral, and whether they remember your company years from now. Chris will challenge you to examine every customer interaction and uncover what separates companies that build momentum from companies that start over every Monday. You will also hear from BCSG members who have built momentum and learn the moves that made the difference.
See key takeaways
- Identify one momentum target for the next 12 months and what must change to reach it.
- Understand why some companies build speed while others lose momentum.
- Learn from BCSG members who created measurable change, including what they did, in what order, and what happened.
Session | Jeremy Self
Magic Isn’t an Accident
The best customer experiences do not depend on who gets dispatched that day. Teams build them, deliver them, and repeat them across the company. Jeremy will help you uncover the operational friction you stopped noticing, including the small inconsistencies that shape what customers think, say, and remember. You will identify where the experience breaks down and what needs to be built so the magic no longer depends on your best technician.
See key takeaways
- Identify the hidden friction and inconsistencies that affect your customer experience.
- Define what must be standardized so every technician can deliver the experience your company promises.
- Build consistency into the customer experience so great service becomes a system.
Session | Chris Crew and Jeremy Self
The Method Behind the Magic
When your team arrives at a customer’s door, they become your company. You cannot be at every call, so the challenge is building people and systems that deliver the experience without you. Chris and Jeremy will break down the five disciplines every call moves through: marketing it, booking it, dispatching it, running it, and accounting for it. You will examine the journey of a call, find where momentum leaks, and decide what needs attention next.
See key takeaways
- Evaluate your business across the five disciplines of every call.
- Identify where gaps, friction, or breakdowns cost your company momentum.
- Choose one move for each discipline and set a target to carry into Day 2.
Elite Buy Vendor Show | 5:00 pm – 7:30 pm
Day 2 | Sessions begin at 8:00 am | Day ends at 5:00 pm
Release the Speed
Session | Chris Crew
Which Rides Are You Running?
Every great park has headline attractions and behind-the-scenes systems that make the experience possible. Your business is no different. Chris will help you examine where you invest time and energy, where critical systems get overlooked, and whether company momentum can continue without you pushing it forward.
See key takeaways
- Identify where your time, energy, and resources go, then find which systems need more attention.
- Determine whether momentum is built into your company or still depends on you.
- Define where your leadership must shift and what needs your focus during the breakout sessions.

Don’t Coast to a Stop
What happens after Acceleration Days matters as much as what happens in the room. Chris and Jeremy will help you turn three days of strategies, decisions, and breakthroughs into a plan that survives the trip home.

- Create a cadence for reviewing progress, staying accountable, and keeping momentum from fading.
- Protect the time and priorities required to follow through once you return to the demands of the business.
