Our "Excellence in Business Award":
The Excellence in Business Awards is an initiative of the Maroochydore Chamber of Commerce and has developed into one of the largest and most prestigious business awards on the Sunshine Coast.

Owners Peter and Elaine Arnold, said “Being awarded Overall MICRO BUSINESS 2005 winner was just fabulous, we believe that this award is recognition of the high level of service our Team delivers to the Sunshine Coast Community and demonstrates that we are on track to becoming the premier Pest Control Business in the Region!"

"Our Team has both passion and pride in their work and we are absolutely thrilled to win the Excellence in Business Awards for two years running 2004 and 2005 in "Service" category."

This is a fantastic achievement for a business that had only been in operation for around four years!

Pest Manager of the Year - 2004 and  2005!
Peter Named Pest Manager of the Year ..
Termite Doctors owner Peter Arnold is the Australian Pest Manager of the Year - for both 2004 and 2005!

Peter was awarded the title at the Australian Environmental Pest Managers Association (AEPMA) national conference in Melbourne.

While he is certainly very proud of his award, Peter says that the real prize lay in the “process” of qualifying for it.

“It’s terrific to win awards, but it’s not something you do on the spur of the moment. It’s not a case of throwing your name into a hat, there is a lot of work involved in preparing your application, you must outline your business model, your treatment procedures, there is a written test and you must give a power point presentation to a panel of judges to prove that you really do know what you’re on about,” he said.

Awards, this one as well as the 2004 and 2005 Sunshine Coast Excellence in Business Awards, all required a clear and honest outline of business procedures across areas of administration, technical service and customer service.

“The judges are serious about you living up to the standards you’ve submitted on your entry form as they search for proof that you are in fact, “walking the talk”,” Peter said.

Peter and Termite Doctors certainly do walk the talk…some days it’s more like a jog as they strive to remain up to date with new information about the environment and developments in the treatment of termites.

Congratulations Peter. We're proud of you!
