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 />

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 />

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 />
