Catalyst Ranch offers the perfect fun and welcoming setting for that,” said JHW founder Jon Wool

The first event of the new formed partnership will be the Summer School Workshop: “Selling the Next Season” and will take place at Catalyst Ranch on July 30^th from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.

Jon’s sessions are filled with real life examples of customer service solutions that can be taken back to the office and implemented immediately,” said Catalyst Ranch’s Owner Eva Niewiadomski, “we are beyond excited to bring our relationship with Jon and JHW Hospitality to the next level.”
