In this session, AMI’s Legislative and Outreach Coordinator, Eric Kretsch, will examine industry statistics gathered using AMI’s portfolio of marina industry surveying. AMI operates four surveys, the Marina Industry Economic Outlook, Wage Rate, Financial Benchmark, and Rates and Infrastructure survey. AMI surveying confirmed what many business leaders have seen over the last few years – the industry is booming, but we also face specific challenges, like increasing costs and rising wages.
Eric, using the most recent surveys, will provide an overview of the trends facing the industry and dive into some details of the data AMI collects on behalf of the industry.
