Macon, Georgia – America’s Swimming Pool Co. (ASP), a nationally recognized pool service franchise concept, recently announced two new executive appointments. The franchise leader named industry veteran Jimmie H. Meece Jr. Brand President and Mac Leskosky Vice President of Operations. Assuming their respective roles in January, Meece and Leskosky have already been instrumental in pushing the brand to Q1 success through their joint leadership history and dedication to continued excellence across all brand initiatives, as ASP continues to offer franchisees with first-rate training, systems, and support to maximize market penetration, improve operational efficiency, and reach full earnings potential.

As the very first America’s Swimming Pool franchisee, Meece opened his own location in South Carolina nearly eighteen years ago and operated it until he was promoted to Vice President of Operations over a decade ago, working alongside America’s Swimming Pool Co. founder Stewart Vernon. Meece was initially attracted to ASP as it was a way to control his own professional growth and he aligned with the company’s mission to provide superior service in a fragmented industry. In his role as President, Meece is responsible for leading company strategy, driving growth, implementing success strategies, and overseeing all executive and franchise operations. His top priorities include investing in franchisees on an operational level to streamline efficiency and drive profitability, as well as continuing to mentor his team in order to inspire leadership and propel the company forward.

“I am so honored to be named President of an organization that has been such an instrumental part of my life for nearly two decades and I’ve had the distinct pleasure of working alongside our ASP founder for so many years and truly learning the ropes from a pro,” said Jimmie H. Meece Jr., President of America’s Swimming Pool Co. “As President, I have a keen focus on continuing to offer innovative, quality service to every single customer every single time.”

With a keen focus on elevating staff operations and supporting day-to-day practices at America’s Swimming Pool, Mac Leskosky was promoted to Vice President of Operations from his previous role of Director of Operations. In his role of Vice President of Operations, Leskosky is responsible for directing and acting as a conduit between the executive and franchisee ASP teams, executing growth strategies, and ensure America’s Swimming Pool’s overall growth and success through day-to-day operations. Leskosky plans to prioritize offering franchise owners the best possible operational, technical, and marketing support while identifying entrepreneurial partners to create local growth in key markets across the United States.

“I am so grateful to be at the helm of the operations team that will drive success for America’s Swimming Pool. I am looking forward to consistently working toward our brand’s overall goal that boosts ASP’s success: helping each franchisee reach their full potential,” said Mac Leskosky.  When we are all rowing in the same direction, we are an unstoppable team.”

Jimmie H. Meece Jr. is a Six Mile, South Carolina native and graduated from Clemson University earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Community Leisure Services, later working as Program Director for cities including Central and Clemson. Mac Leskosky is originally from Macon, Georgia and he graduated from Georgia College & State University with a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting. He previously worked as an auditor with a local accounting firm before joining the America’s Swimming Pool, Co.’s franchising office.
