It is an honor to be your 2025 ICAA President! I am a 3rd generation insulation contractor and I have been in the insulation business my entire career. My father took over my grandfather’s insulation business and at the age of 16, I started working for my father’s insulation contracting company. Fast forward a few years and I started my own insulation contracting company. This is a great industry and I have a great passion for what I do, and as 2025 ICAA President, I hope to bring my passion to ICAA while serving our industry.
Our individual commitment to ICAA and the insulation industry sustains us as a powerful and united force. ICAA provides essential support for two of my primary interests: building professionalism and growing the business.
ICAA helps you handle business challenges and pursue beneficial opportunities. Whether through our robust year-long educational programming via Webinars or our in-person ICAA Annual Convention & Trade Show, or our newsletters or email alerts, ICAA provides you with the education, support, advice, and connections to help you build and maintain a successful business. ICAA is dedicated to you.
On our calendar for 2025 is a new series of ICAA webinars led by our esteemed contract expert, attorney Karalynn Cromeens. This series is called “Trust Your Gut: Your Ultimate Guide to Residential Construction Contracts.” Karalynn, the owner and managing partner of The Cromeens Law Firm, will cover how to craft effective residential construction contracts and share best practices surrounding them.
The first webinar in this series will cover the first three chapter of her upcoming book:
- Why You Need a Written Contract
- Trust Your Gut
- Scope of Work
We will continue the 20-minute format, as we know you’re busy, and the format length has proven to be successful. Mark your calendars for the second Monday of each month, starting Monday, February 10 at 1:00 pm Eastern.
On February 6, we presented a new webinar on Retrofit SPF Sales Training (now available to ICAA members in the Webinar Archive on the Member Site.)
On February 12, ICAA members are invited to participate in a webinar on “lobbying basics” to protect the energy efficiency tax credits in the new Congress.
Check your email shortly for an invite to upcoming webinars from ICAA.
Lots on our plate, and lots more to come! It is an honor to serve this great industry as ICAA President.
