Material And Pricing Clarity: 3 Steps Every Homebuilder And Remodeler<br />

Owner Can Implement To Restore Business F.I.T.ness In A World Of Chaos<br />

Wednesday, December 7 | 11:15 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. | Keynote Area PROJECT MANAGEMENT<br />

Windows that used to take 7 days in 2020 now take 7 months…maybe. Plywood that costs $11 now demands over $70!<br />

Volatility is the new certainty, and contractors must create the discipline to develop a different level of fitness in their<br />

business in order to navigate these new waters, with a more robust ship.<br />

This life-changing and engaging 45 minute talk won’t waste your time in empty market predictions, but instead will provide<br />

you the tools to build a better business that allows you to navigate a new business reality.<br />

You will be equipped to beat chaos with predictability, and to build a business that weathers volatile changes, and makes<br />

time for what matters most.<br />

Target Audience: Homebuilders, Remodelers, Contractors<br />

Selling Thru a Tough Economy<br />

Wednesday, December 7 | 1:15 p.m. - 2:15 p.m. | Keynote Area<br />

We’re seeing volatile pricing formats, supply chain interruption and rising interest rates. This usually ends in tough<br />

economic conditions, resulting in construction industry challenges. Knowing the best way to stay ahead of these changes<br />

and keep your business moving forward is difficult. We’ll look at the methods successful contractors use to weather<br />

shifting economic conditions. We’ll cover:<br />

1. Increasing your portion of the market pie<br />

2. Getting a competitive advantage<br />

3. Managing customer expectations<br />

4. Structuring your sales effort<br />

5. How to balance sales and marketing efforts<br />

You’ll come away from this session with a better understanding of what it will take to grow in both revenue and<br />

profitability in these times. Sales is the most important aspect of your business. Everything else simply follows that lead.<br />

Target Audience: Architects, General Contractors, Subcontractors, <strong>Build</strong>ers & Remodelers<br />

Networking & Association Use<br />

Thursday, December 8 | 1:15 p.m. - 2:15 p.m. | Keynote Area<br />

Many contractors never join relevant associations that can produce revenue for them. Even worse they spend the dues<br />

money and don’t maximize the effectiveness of the association. We will layout how to determine what associations to<br />

join, how to work them and get business from your involvement. The single greatest way to find grouped customers and<br />

network contacts is right in your backyard association!<br />

Work them to the fullest and you’ll never make a cold call again!<br />

1 out of every 4 employees left their jobs in 2021…most voluntarily. The talent squeeze that contractors feel is predicted<br />

to continue well into the future.<br />

What is true for sales, namely that repeat customers are far easier to come by than new customers, is also true for<br />

employees; retaining and growing existing employees is far easier and more effective than trying to find new ones.<br />

This life-changing, 45 minute workshop will equip your leadership toolbelt with practical, take-home tools to provide for<br />

your team that allows each person to thrive in their role, grow to new roles, and align with the mission that you have laid<br />

out.<br />

Tom Woodcock<br />

President | Seal the Deal<br />

Many in the construction industry consistently make the same mistakes that kill their opportunity. There are many common<br />

errors and mentalities that hinder sales success. We’ll put a light on these problems and give the behaviors that counter<br />

them. Make sure your approach to the customer base is the most effective possible. These errors are often made without<br />

the contractor even realizing they’re making them. This cripples their chances of winning profitable projects.<br />

SPECIAL CHARLOTTE SHOW EDITION <strong>2022</strong> 29


That is an infinite and empty<br />

treadmill leading to the same<br />

destination over and over.<br />

I am going to walk you through<br />

the four steps you need to take<br />

to navigate your business in<br />

2023 in a powerful way.<br />

The first step in building your<br />

business plan for 2023 is<br />

making time to fill out your<br />

Vision Story.<br />

If you are comparing your <strong>2022</strong> to 2020 and 2021 you may<br />

want to pause.<br />

Standing here at the early sunset hours of <strong>2022</strong> we are<br />

feeling a very real metaphor.<br />

It goes like this.<br />

During 2020 and 2021 many of our businesses were<br />

barreling down the business highway at 90 mph winding hot<br />

at 10,000 RPM’s.<br />

Today, it already feels like a massive slowdown, and it has<br />

been. Let’s not lose perspective though…instead of going<br />

from 90 mph to 0…we are now riding down the highway at a<br />

more sustainable, more comfortable pace of 70 mph, and the<br />

good news is that we are only running at 5,000 RPM’s.<br />

In other words, it is taking far less effort to go just a little bit<br />

slower and start to get some breathing room.<br />

The problem is that our human minds have grown<br />

accustomed to the speed, breathlessness, chaos, and cash<br />

flow of the past two years and we don’t know how to<br />

mentally or emotionally throttle our expectations, let alone<br />

our spending habits.<br />

New norms have emerged over the past two years; pricing<br />

volatility, material and logistics inconsistencies, marketing<br />

and sales simplicities, and probably the most noticeable<br />

internally is that your employees want more money for<br />

the same roles and while demanding more flexibility and<br />

meaning. Employees want their business life to fuel their<br />

personal lives, and not the other way around.<br />

Historically, business owners have tried to solve headaches<br />

by shooting one particular shiny bullet…sales, sales, sales.<br />

If we could just get more work then we would have more<br />

cash to pay higher fees, higher premiums, higher wages,<br />

higher demands, and higher expectations.<br />

In 2023, where vision is<br />

not written down, people<br />

will indeed scatter, and that<br />

scattering of people will further<br />

scatter your mind and thoughts into a web of frustration.<br />

Instead, follow the ancient Jewish wisdom that says, “write<br />

the vision down so that those who read it may run.”<br />

Vision is clarifying and vision is separating. When you cast<br />

vision you know who is bought in and who is not. Some will<br />

run towards your vision and some away from your vision.<br />

You will be tempted to scoot on past writing your vision<br />

down and instead make up some silly excuse in your<br />

head that either, “I don’t need this” or “oh yeah, we’ve got<br />

something like that”.<br />

We’ve made crafting your vision simple.<br />

Seven categories to begin working through, and you will<br />

likely need to make about an hour or so of time for this<br />

powerful and important exercise. Notice I said the word<br />

exercise…it’s work and it’s healthy.<br />

1. Term/Time<br />

2. Family/Freedom<br />

3. Financial<br />

4. Product/Service<br />

5. Team<br />

6. Client<br />

7. Culture<br />

The second necessary tool in your 2023 business planning<br />

toolkit is the sobering Delegation Roadmap.<br />

Andrew Carnegie said, “No person will make a great business<br />

who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit.”<br />

John Maxwell said, “If you want to do a few small things<br />

right, do them yourself. If you want to do great things and<br />

make a big impact, learn to delegate.”<br />

Discovering delegation will make time for what matters most<br />

in three ways:<br />

30 CONSTRUCTIONMONTHLY.COM


• It Empowers others to put out the fires<br />

• It transfers your authority to them<br />

• It multiplies your effort<br />

The moment that you stop delegating, or choose to not<br />

delegate and empower is the moment that you have chosen<br />

to have a job instead of owning a business.<br />

The third necessary tool in your 2023 business planning<br />

toolkit is the non-negotiable Weekly Schedule.<br />

You feel busy but not productive because you have little to<br />

no boundaries.<br />

I recently heard Lance Golinghorst articulate that we all have<br />

access to three major scarce resources: time, energy, and<br />

attention.<br />

Attention is indivisible. It is well researched that multitasking<br />

doesn’t work. As I am writing and reading this, I should not<br />

be brushing my teeth or checking my bank balance.<br />

Energy is renewable (I can generate more energy), and<br />

transferable (I can give you energy and you can give me<br />

energy).<br />

The real wake up call is in regard to our time. Time is<br />

non-renewable (we cannot make more of it), and it is not<br />

transferable (you cannot give yours to me).<br />

You go into each week with a defined, finite allotment of<br />

time. Either you put boundaries throughout your day roping<br />

off all of the tasks and responsibilities, or we will do it for<br />

you.<br />

If you do it, it allows you to maximize your scarce resources<br />

of time, energy, and attention. If we do it for you, then we<br />

will devour your time, energy, and attention.<br />

You can make excuses as to why it won’t work in the<br />

specific role you are in. We love you, but your role is not a<br />

special unicorn or snowflake. Own your role by owning the<br />

boundaries for your role and then share those boundaries<br />

with us so we can support you.<br />

Finally, for a robust 2023 business plan, you will benefit from<br />

building and implementing a Culture Calendar.<br />

The culture of your business is not happenstance...it is not an<br />

accident, and no luck is required.<br />

The culture of your business is a DIRECT RESULT of the<br />

ingredients that you allow to enter the mash bill.<br />

If you allow the ingredients of unpredictability, inconsistency,<br />

minimal communication, lack of process, lack of mission,<br />

gossip, and no values in decision making, then the result<br />

will be a business that has notes of unpredictability, lack of<br />

process and the like.<br />

If however, you allow only the ingredients of consistent<br />

communication, accountability, humor, reinforced process,<br />

and clarity in vision, mission, and values, then the result will<br />

be a business that has notes of the same.<br />

Again, the four tools that will change the game for you and<br />

your team in 2023.<br />

1. Vision Story<br />

2. Delegation Roadmap<br />

3. Weekly Schedule<br />

4. Culture Calendar<br />

Our mission is to help liberate business owners, like you,<br />

from chaos to make time for the things that matter most.<br />

Working 70 hours a week is NOT what matters most…<br />

empowering others to live into their narrow brilliance IS what<br />

matters most.<br />

Remember, when you choose to implement, you are choosing<br />

to cut the chaos and make time for what matters most.<br />

Joe Calloway said it, “vision without implementation is<br />

hallucination.”<br />

CAGC MEMBERS AND STAFF LOBBY FOR<br />

CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT<br />

In late September, Carolinas AGC (CAGC) leaders met in<br />

Washington, D.C. with Congressional Delegations from<br />

the Carolinas to urge their support of infrastructure<br />

and Career Technical Education funding and oppose<br />

mandatory Project Labor Agreements, burdensome Buy<br />

America provisions and proposed heat standards that<br />

would be extremely impractical for the construction<br />

industry.<br />

The three-day National & Chapter Leadership<br />

Conference, from Sept. 18-20, featured business and<br />

political sessions, networking events and visits to Capitol<br />

Hill by about 300 representatives of AGC of America’s 89<br />

chapters, including CAGC.<br />

“This year’s AGC National Chapter Leadership Conference<br />

again gave us a great opportunity to help support the<br />

34 CONSTRUCTIONMONTHLY.COM<br />

construction industry in the Carolinas by informing us of<br />

the latest on what we need to know politically and then<br />

having us do something about it by making personal visits<br />

with our Congressional delegations in North and South<br />

Carolina,” said Charlie Wilson, Chair of the CAGC Board<br />

of Directors.<br />

CAGC representatives participating in the AGCA event<br />

included the five BOD Officers – Charlie Wilson,<br />

President; Mark Johnnie, Chair Elect; Dean Wilson,<br />

Treasurer; Ty Edmondson, Vice Chair; and Casey<br />

Schwager, Immediate Past Chair. Also participating in<br />

the annual outing were Dave Simpson, CAGC President<br />

& CEO, and Allen Gray, Director of AGCA’s Utility<br />

Infrastructure Division and former CAGC Utility Division<br />

Director.


A highlight of the trip included personal visits with<br />

U.S. Sen. Thom Tillis, R-NC (who supported CAGC’s<br />

push to do more with immigration efforts to ease the<br />

construction workforce shortage, including his support<br />

of asylum reform), and U.S. Rep. Joe Wilson, R-SC, who<br />

voiced support about continuing to significantly increase<br />

CTE funding. In addition, the CAGC delegation met with<br />

the staffs of U.S. Senators Lindsey Graham, R-SC, and<br />

Richard Burr, R-NC, and U.S. Reps. Patrick McHenry and<br />

Virginia Foxx, both of NC.<br />

Some key points of the messaging to members of<br />

Congress included:<br />

• More needs to be done with guest worker relief and<br />

immigration reform, including extending DACA & TPS,<br />

to allow badly needed and qualified people into the<br />

construction industry at a time when the workforce<br />

shortage is our number-one challenge.<br />

• Continue increasing CTE funding at a time when<br />

federal funding is running at $27B for CTE versus<br />

$101B for higher education.<br />

• Oppose government-mandated Project Labor<br />

Agreements on federal projects.<br />

• Oppose HR 2193 involving federal heat standards<br />

and instead support industry efforts and best<br />

practices.<br />

Digi<strong>Build</strong> Raises $4M Seed to<br />

Fix <strong>Construction</strong> Supply Chains<br />

The round includes high profile investors YCombinator,<br />

Draper Associates, Picus Capital, and Harvard<br />

<strong>Construction</strong> is one of the largest and oldest markets in<br />

the world. Projects involve many stakeholders that bare<br />

significant cost and risk. McKinsey estimates that the average<br />

construction project is 80% over budget and 20 months behind<br />

schedule. The number one reason for that failure is supply<br />

chain and material management issues.<br />

Digi<strong>Build</strong> is working to change that. Their goal is to digitize the<br />

fragmented and tedious workflows involved in managing and<br />

procuring building materials. They’ve created an easy-to-use<br />

software platform that automates finding, ordering, tracking<br />

and managing materials needed on a construction project. The<br />

platform includes innovative features like Predictive Scheduling<br />

which produces “Must Order by Dates” that guarantees<br />

contractors have the material they need on time to meet their<br />

job schedules.<br />

The company announced the $4 million seed round with<br />

investors: YCombinator, Draper Associates, Harvard University,<br />

Picus Capital, Bluefield Capital (2x), Cathexis Ventures, MH<br />

Carnegie, YC Alum Fund, Emerging Ventures, Chain Reaction<br />

and more. The round included strong signals from construction<br />

heavy hitters such as investments from the cofounders of<br />

contech unicorn PlanGrid (YC W12, acquired $875M by<br />

Autodesk) and <strong>Build</strong> Technologies, a venture fund of major<br />

construction companies.<br />

Digi<strong>Build</strong>’s main product is DigiProcure, the material<br />

management solution. Using this tool, customers are reporting<br />

powerful results such as cutting material management (change)<br />

hours in half, saving hundreds of thousands with better material<br />

pricing, and reducing contractor schedule misses by 90%.<br />

The Miami based company also offers DigiEndeavour, a general<br />

construction management offering comparable to the industry<br />

leading solutions.<br />

Of note, multiple industry leaders like Procore have been<br />

rumored to have explored investment in Digi<strong>Build</strong>. CEO Robert<br />

Salvador commented of those offers “we appreciate the interest<br />

of the construction-tech industry’s trail blazers in the in us. We<br />

closed the round before they had a chance to finalize investment,<br />

but we look forward to working with them in the future”.<br />

The company seems well-positioned to succeed in this lucrative<br />

market segment. Digi<strong>Build</strong> has a well-qualified team of leaders<br />

who have managed over $5 billion in construction projects and<br />

an experienced engineering team. Robert Salvador, Cofounder<br />

and CEO, previously founded a construction company that<br />

worked nationwide and was recently named one of Crain’s<br />

Chicago Business’ “25 Rising Stars in Tech”. He is a frequent<br />

speaker for construction organizations like BuiltWorlds and<br />

The <strong>Construction</strong> Institute. Cofounder and COO April Moss<br />

provides operational and customer success leadership having<br />

been an executive that built teams for large companies such as<br />

P&G, Starbucks, and Acosta Sales & Marketing.<br />

As part of the near-term roadmap, Digi<strong>Build</strong> will look to expand<br />

their DigiProcure offering to additional trade contractors<br />

and general contractors as they become the trusted material<br />

management software for the construction industry.<br />
