One of Dan’s many career highlights occurred during his tenure at College Pro Painters. Under his leadership he put his business development skills to work and managed to grow his jurisdiction of Southern Alberta from $2 million to $3.3 million in annual revenue. He significantly raised the customer quality of all 60 franchises that he oversaw, earning top NPS quality scores in College Pro along the way.

As a Breakthrough Academy Business Coach, Dan is excited to apply his business acumen for the benefit of other entrepreneurs. He works with small groups, encouraging them to bond with (and challenge) each other so they can hit their individual goals. He loves nothing more than assisting contractors to work on their business, rather than in it; freeing them from the chains that often come with entrepreneurship and giving them back their time.

In his downtime, Calgary-based Dan loves spending time with his wife Deanne, playing sports, camping, and riding bikes with his two sons and daughter, Parker, Tanner, and Rosie. Wanderlust is in Dan’s blood, having lived in China, extensively travelled Europe, and the Middle East… so don’t be surprised if you meet him and his family in some far-flung place, sampling the cuisine and getting to know the locals.
