New partnership brings high-impact peer groups to ProSupply members focused on clarity, growth, and profitability
ProSupply and Violand Management Associates are proud to announce the launch of the ProSupply Strategic Edge Peer Group, a new program created to support restoration business owners within the ProSupply network. Designed to help owners gain clarity, benchmark performance, and sharpen leadership skills, the initiative officially launched in Q1 this year and is now accepting applications.
This powerful partnership brings together Violand’s years of experience facilitating high-performing peer groups with ProSupply’s mission of delivering margin-growing opportunities to restoration professionals. The result is a peer group experience that offers uncommon value, delivered at a fraction of the traditional cost.
“Being part of a professional peer group creates a rare space where owners can be real about the opportunities and threats in their businesses and across the industry,” says Violand’s Director of Sales and Marketing, Jeff Jones. “Through open benchmarking of financials and candid discussions around operations, hiring, and ownership roles, peer group members gain clarity and confidence that can’t be gotten alone. Accessing this level of peer connection, facilitated by Violand and offered through the ProSupply Network, is a game-changer for serious owners.”
Program Highlights
- In-person facilitated peer group experience with three half-day meetings per year at neutral locations (not at member businesses), plus participation in Violand’s Business Planning Retreat at exclusive client pricing.
- Expert-led conversations focused on financials, leadership, hiring, and business operations.
- Peer-vetted enrollment – interested ProSupply members may apply to join.
- High value, low cost – made possible through the ProSupply network.
“This partnership takes us back to ProSupply’s roots, helping members gain what they can’t always get on their own,” said Lee Shoop, SVP Account Management & Business Development at ProSupply. “Our members need margin and time, and this group gives them both: insight from fellow owners and guidance from industry experts they trust.”
How to Join
