Ask any HVACR contractor who’s been in an ACCA MIX Group®, and they’ll tell you— it’s one of the most valuable investments they’ve made in their business. Some even join ACCA just for this program! Why? Because MIX Groups® are the ultimate way to connect with like-minded, non-competing contractors who are serious about success.
In a MIX Group®, you’ll get real, straightforward insights from peers who have been where you are. Whether it’s sales, marketing, staffing, or operations, your group becomes your personal advisory board—offering fresh perspectives, proven strategies, and honest feedback that can take your business to the next level.
At ACCA 2025, we’re bringing you two exciting opportunities to tap into this program:

How the MIXer works
ACCA 2025 attendees are invited to register for the MIXer Speed Network Event. Create an account or login at app.speednetworking.com. Register for the ACCA 2025 MIXer by entering the event code ACCAMIX25 and completing the registration form.
Once you register, you’ll get an email from our Speed Networking platform. In just a few minutes, you’ll:
- Set up a quick profile
- Answer a few key questions (company size, market, sales volume, etc.)
- Rank the types of contractors you’d like to meet
The software will then match you for brief meetings during the event with contractors whose businesses align with yours. After that, enjoy open networking time to dive deeper into connections that seem like the perfect fit.
How to make the most of the MIXer
Come prepared! Bring business cards, a notepad, and be ready to share highlights about your company.
Know what to ask! Whether you’re a candidate or a current MIX Group® member, great questions can help you find the right fit.
Questions candidates might ask:
- What’s the overall makeup of your group?
- How often do you meet?
- Does your group review financials as a key measure of success?
- Can others from my company participate?
- How has being in a MIX Group® impacted your business?
Questions MIX Group® members might ask:
- Is your company family-owned?
- What’s your role in the business?
- What do you hope to achieve by joining a group?
- How can you contribute to the group?
We encourage existing MIX Groups® to send multiple members. This gives your group different perspectives on potential new additions, and candidates will get a clearer picture of the group by talking to more than one member.
