THE SEALS - Refrigeration Gasket Specialists

This is a picture you're likely very familiar with, especially on Mondays. Are you paying attention during these calls? Our SEALS weekly calls include the entire system, regardless of title. Everyone has a voice - to share, to learn, to grow. We use these video calls to reinforce the week's Core Habit as well as to share the SEALS 6 (new business, new referral sources, new reviews, referrals given, referrals received, and key networking events) among our teammates. The contributions are amazing, and that's where learning really happens. It's The SEALS Way. #KeepItCool #TheSealsGaskets #TheSealsWay #SealofApproval Andy Dinkin Will smith

An average GMC vehicle contains dozens, if not hundreds, of gaskets and seals throughout its various systems. That's why our newest franchisee - Katie McFarland - was an absolute perfect fit. Katie spent almost two decades in various roles at General Motors, most recently as a General Assembly Superintendent overseeing scores of employees. There, she helped create an inclusive environment where teammates felt valued and heard. But it wasn't hers. "I wanted to control my life and my career - to build a culture where people are taken care of and want to be part of." She chose the SEALS because it "sparked something in me that no other franchise did. I was intrigued by the low overhead cost and the easy-to-understand model. Additionally, I was impressed by how quickly I could start my franchise," she said. When asked how she'll win..."build relationships and be consistent." Her vision is to grow and expand, and continue to provide for her family. A special shoutout to coach Camille Wilson at The Entrepreneur's Source for being "an amazing person, personable, and for always being available." Welcome to the team, Katie! #ArfArf #TheSeals #GasketSpecialists Andy Dinkin Matthew Motyka Dave Wells Ken Hutcheson, CFE Justin Ghadery Jamie Lavigne, CFE

That's a wrap! We finished our first franchisee training since being acquired by EverSmith Brands. A big shout out to our first gasket specialist graduates in Daniel Anderson, Andrew Eccles Alan Fudge (not pictured) Eric Huezo and Katie McFarland. It was 5 days of intense field work, product identification, classroom presentations, relationship building, and, of course, a whole lot of gaskets. #ArfArf #TheSeals #GasketSpecialists #KeepitCool Ken Hutcheson, CFE Andy Dinkin Justin Ghadery Kennedy Pullan Matthew Motyka Dave Wells B.

"Teamwork makes the dream work. It's always been my thing," said Andrew Eccles, our newest franchise operator in San Diego and Dallas. This veteran served 21 years in the military - the Marine Corps and the Army - where he developed a solid leadership foundation. "My leadership style blends trust, accountability, and structure. I'm a Builder-Coach Operator, someone who invests in people, codifies systems, and keeps everyone honest with numbers and verification. It's about empowering others, but always with a safety net of process and transparency." In addition to his veteran status and strong leadership, Drew has plenty of restaurant industry experience. He's a husband, dad (x 6!), and he's going to be one heckuva SEALS operator! Welcome to the team Drew! #ArfArf #TheSEALS #TeamEverSmith

We're known to bring military-like proficiency & efficiency to commercial kitchens across the country. Ironic that THE SEALS is expanding to St. Louis, MO, thanks to Daniel Anderson, a U.S. veteran who served 6 years in active duty as an Advanced Electronics and Communications Technician. After years at AT&T as a lead financial analyst, Dan had a desire to "start a repeatable business with little competition." How will he win? Building relationships and providing great customer service. "I feel like my management skills, as well as people skills, will help me win customers while my financial background will help me manage my business effectively," he said. You have our SEAL of Approval!

"Serve people first, and success will follow." Wise words from our beloved owners in Payden Mitchell and Karry Stroner, who are expanding to the Charleston, SC market (they already own the Myrtle Beach & Columbia, SC markets). You can almost hear the applause from the Low Country! This father/son-in-law combination shares a passion for relationships - building trust, solving problems, and creating value for others. They're creating a culture in South Carolina that starts with leading by example and collaboration. This is the exact leadership style that makes us the nation's unparalleled leader in refrigeration gasket replacement and installation - helping restaurant & commercial kitchen operators do what they do best: serve great, tasty, fresh, and delicious food and experiences.
