Not only did he create and expand his own business, but has spent 12 years in the industry, learning the ins and outs of everything to do with watersports, from branding and social media, to how to fix a jet ski or a Destin, FL, pontoon rental, if needed.

Up next is Greg Fisher, who is the CEO of TripShock, an online OTA for tours and activities, as well as WaveRez, which is a reservation software system created specifically for watersport operators. With over 15 years in the travel and hospitality industry, Greg is truly an entrepreneur, who knows the complexities of how to create a successful business. And, as an Emerald Coast local, he really knows his stuff when it comes to watersports!

Kevin and Greg, with their wealth of knowledge and experience, set out to create a podcast to not only have fun and stay up to date with current watersport trends, but to create a community of like-minded professionals.

Watersport Safety & Insurance

Watersport safety, as well as insurance, is a hot topic of conversation in the industry, especially when it comes to extreme activities like parasailing and jet skiing. Not only do providers need to make safety a priority for insurance purposes, but also for the welfare of their customers. Companies who put safety first give their customers peace of mind, which, in return, can boost sales and profit, and the AWG podcast explains how to do so!

Even further, when it comes to watersports along the Emerald Coast, there’s probably nothing more popular than a Panama City Beach, Florida, pontoon rental! This is why Kevin’s knowledge of pontoons and how they work, combined with Greg’s entrepreneurial knowledge, makes this the premier podcast for everything you need to know about watersport safety, insurance, and more!

 

Expanding your Business Through Innovation & Inspiration

When it comes down to it, hard work and dedication, inspiration, and motivation is key, and the Awkward Watersport Guys are here to help with exactly that!
