On this site you are invited to share ideas and interact with other swimming pool-related business owners on a variety of topics. I have at my disposal a myriad of resources that help Team Horner operate successfully in today’s business environment. I enjoy the benefit of over forty years in the swimming pool industry from ‘pool guy’ to owner of a multi-segment, global distribution and manufacturing company.

In the past I have served our industry as head of our Trade Association from the local and state level to president of the national organization, NSPI (now APSP). While I currently serve on several committees, I actively promote enactment of legislation that benefits our industry. I am an instructor and keynote speaker on a variety of business and technical aquatic topics. Yet, I still enjoy the thrill of making a sales call whether to a local contractor or a foreign distributor. This experience coupled with my on-going involvement in groups like TEC and NSPF, Keiser University and FSPA, access to advice from the nation’s leading business and financial advisors, affords me a unique perspective that constantly motivates me to keep growing and winning and sharing together to be the BEST. It is my intention to share these resources with you and other business owners that are as passionate as I am about this wonderful and wacky world we know as the ‘pool industry’.

It is my intention to update the topic weekly, so be sure to log-in frequently to maximize your experience.
