IGNITE! 2023, the three-day event that brings together software users from the lawn, landscape, pest control, and commercial cleaning sectors, descended on Las Vegas, Nev., for the annual user conference this week.

Approximately 1,400 users of FieldRoutes, the cloud-based and mobile software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider for field service businesses, and Aspire Software, which is for field service contractors, attended the conference that began on Nov. 7 at Ceasars Forum.

The event allows users to share best practices, industry knowledge and learn more about the latest technological innovations and software solutions that enable them to enhance and grow their businesses.

Mark Tipton, CEO of Aspire Software and FieldRoutes, welcomed attendees, telling the standing room only crowd what he loves about these events is the willingness of attendees to give back to one another and share their best practices.

Indeed, IGNITE! 2023 features more than 90 breakout sessions and interactive workshops for hands-on learning opportunities. An exhibit area showcases products and services from companies that can help meet the needs of companies in the service industry.

In addition, three-time Super Bowl champion and the NFL’s all-time leading rusher Emmitt Smith shared his journey to a successful football and business career. His inspirational advice resonated with attendees who packed the ballroom to hear him speak on Day 2 of the event. “People say things about you and where you’re going, but they don’t control your destiny,” Smith shared, as he noted “you have in you what you need to become successful.”

During IGNITE! 2023, attendees were given a preview of FieldRoutes and Aspire solutions that included:

• Marketing Pro, which pulls relevant data directly from the FieldRoutes Operations Suite to allow users to quickly create and schedule direct mail and email campaigns that engage and nurture customers for upsell, cross-sell and renewal opportunities.
• Fleet Pro, a professional-grade fleet management tool fully integrated into the FieldRoutes software improves the performance of field employees and minimizes risk.
• PropertyIntel, which helps companies drive new profitability and performance levels by collecting, connecting and visualizing essential data from Aspire Software to bid, win, and service more jobs in less time.
