Wizard Awards 2023 Winners Announced

Always a conference highlight, this year’s Wizard Awards were no exception. “It was really exciting,” says Scott Siegal, of this year’s awards ceremony. “Everyone was hooting and hollering and screaming. It was great to experience.”

The Wizard Awards were initiated by CCN founder Richard Kaller who encouraged salespeople to “become the wizard” by creating solutions for prospects’ home improvement needs. Kaller believed recognition is a key tool in employee retention programs for a reason: people need more than constructive feedback and positive affirmation.

This year at the Arlington, Texas, event, CCN recognized 13 individuals and two companies.

Here we highlight three:

Company of the Year

Bo Lacey Construction

Mansfield, Ohio

Bo Lacey Construction was awarded Company of the Year due to their outstanding skills and expertise in exterior home improvement, their commitment to customer service and community involvement, their excellent company culture and commitment to career development, their effective marketing and sales strategies, and their overall training and development programs

Most Improved Company

G.M. Roth Design Remodeling

Nashua, New Hampshire

After 35 years in business, a new generation is running this company. Their numbers were so good year over year that it was just mind-blowing. It is just really exciting, and we wanted to recognize them for that.
