rob estell is a business broker of the well-known Aspect Realty business brokerage company who helps people sell their business in FL and nearest regions. I got my start in the swimming pool industry in September 1999 when I purchased a Swimming pool cleaning route from Steve Farber & Clear & Clean Pools. I bought 43 accounts and received some training through them. I did all kinds of different specialized advertising and doubled my route every year until I sold about 300 residential and commercial accounts in 2004. I obtained my CPO certification on August 26 2001 with the late Bailey Prowell CPO Registration 33-115832 I received my Broward County Swimming Pool and Spa Service License in February of 2002. CC-10531-SP-X I obtained the title of CPOI , Certified Pool Operator Instructor, from the National Swimming Pool Foundation. NSPF.org in February of 2003 33-101010. This is the highest professional designation in the swimming pool industry. I have educated thousands of clients through the CPO course and specialized classes. The class most requested is the dry chemical class which shows service techs how to maintain a residential swimming pool for about $1 per week. I sold all of my pool routes in July of 2004 and started a wholesale distribution store in the same warehouse I was storing all of my service chemicals & vehicles in Coconut Creek. I grew the wholesale distribution company and in 2007 I opened a 2nd location in Lake Worth, Florida. I sold the store in Coconut Creek in October 2007 and the Lake Worth store in March of 2008. I have consulted with other distribution companies, service companies, and manufacturers in their startup, operation , & growth through education and experience. I have written a textbook and a course for Goldcoast School www.goldcoastschools.com to assist people in obtaining licensing for the State & County Commercial & Residential builders along with Swimming Pool & Spa Service contractors licenses. I also operate a Business Consulting company where I advise companies on how to resole their problems and open new doors for them, and ultimately making them more money with less stress.
