PSAI Events are Good – And Survey
Reveals Opportunities to Evolve and Grow
By Karleen Kos, PSAI Executive Director
The PSAI's annual industry survey concluded last month. The survey covers
three main subject areas: how industry members are faring and what's on their
minds about the business environment, how well the PSAI is meeting their
needs in general, and how well our events are meeting their needs in
particular. Last week we published the first of three articles reporting on the
findings of this year's survey. In this second installment reporting on the
findings for 2018 we turn to what the industry had to say about th e PSAI's
events.
As a reminder, the data that follows represents information supplied by 271
industry professionals representing 144 companies. Sixty - nine percent (69%)
of responding companies are current PSAI Members and 31% are not.
Because respondents sometimes skipped questions or didn't finish the survey,
the total fo r each set of questions varies.
Honorary Membership Status:
Congratulations to Jeff and Terri Wigley!
Jeff and Te rri Wigley (formerly of Pit Stop Sanitation Services) have
been granted honorary PSAI Membership
If you've been around the PSAI for a while, chances are you've had the
pleasure of meeting the Wigleys. Jeff and Terri, former owners of Pit Stop
Sanitation S ervices in Georgia, have been staples of the Association for many
years. Their commitment to improving the portable sanitation industry has not
gone unnoticed. In fact, it is the reason that the PSAI Board of Directors has
granted Jeff and Terri the status of honorary PSAI Membership!
As explained in the PSAI Bylaws , our Association has five separate
Membership classes: Operator, Supplier, Broker, Affiliate, and Honorary. This
final level of Membership is granted to an "individual whom the Board of
Direct ors, in its discretion, has conferred Honorary Membership on the basis
of his or her contribution to the industry." It is a classification that "may be
bestowed at any time." Jeff and Terri recently sold their company to former Pit Stop employee and curren t PSAI Member
Brett Roques, whic h meant the Wigleys, as non - owners, were technically no longer PSAI Members .
