OUR WINDOW<br />

HAS NO ANALOGS<br />

IN THE WORLD.<br />

OUR<br />

WINDOW<br />

IS UNIQUE.<br />

Unlike ordinary curtains,<br />

it uses the space between<br />

the parallel panes of the<br />

window. After a mechanical<br />

rotation, the space gets<br />

filled with an opaque<br />

substance of glass beads<br />

and small homogeneous<br />

granite flakes.<br />

When it comes to “green production” and energy<br />

conservation, we can state that our curtain created<br />

with glass beads is definitely more environmentally<br />

green and energy-saving than all other curtains. There are<br />

incomparably less natural or artificial raw materials and energy<br />

spent on its manufacturing and operation than in any other<br />

case. Glass beads are made of recycled materials. Our curtain<br />

does not need to be washed or ironed, which means that<br />

electrical or physical energy is not consumed, energy is limited<br />

only by the Earth’s gravity. In this regard, it is a real “champion”<br />

among existing competitors.<br />

At the international level, our product first appeared in<br />

2019 in Geneva at the Palexpo exhibition. The presented<br />

prototype caused a lot of positive emotions among attendees.<br />

In Switzerland, we also took the first steps in the search for<br />

international partners.<br />

After the Geneva International Exhibition in 2019, we were<br />

able to improve dramatically. With the help of Georgian<br />

and foreign contractors, simple details are individually<br />

manufactured for us in different countries from different<br />

materials.<br />

The product we are presenting at <strong>Houston</strong> <strong>Build</strong> <strong>Expo</strong><br />

— June 28-29, <strong>2023</strong> was invented in 2015 by Georgian<br />

businessman and scientist Ivane Chkhaidze and his partner<br />

Gogi Chechelashvili. The first patent was granted in 2015 in<br />

the Republic of Georgia. We have also patented the product in<br />

Japan, China and India. In addition, we are waiting for patents<br />

in Europe and in the USA.<br />

Our window is unique and has no analogs in the world. Unlike<br />

ordinary curtains, it uses the space between the parallel panes<br />

of the window. After a mechanical rotation, the space gets filled<br />

with glass beads, thus playing the role of curtains.<br />

Strategies to Increase &<br />

Without an offensive posture<br />

determined to save your<br />

company money, economic<br />

insecurities, supply chain<br />

disruptions, and managing<br />

a challenging workforce can<br />

influence companies to be<br />

more reactive, adjusting to<br />

the ever-changing rules and<br />

guidelines. Now is the time<br />

to be proactive, but most<br />

business owners cannot<br />

invest the hours to become<br />

a financial expert and stay<br />

current with the latest tax<br />

strategies.<br />

RICHARD RODGERS<br />

Founder – Dannah<br />

Investment Group LLC<br />

1. Drop in sales of 50% from 2019 to 2020 or a 20% decline by quarter for the first 3 quarters<br />

of 2019 compared to 2021.<br />

2. A business disruption caused by a governmental mandate. This second method is the area that<br />

our tax attorney qualifies most construction companies as eligible. If you have been<br />

told that you don’t qualify as a construction company, it is worth a call to explain<br />

why you might.<br />

3. Rethink Health Insurance<br />

The American Healthcare Act has afforded the creation of programs beneficial<br />

to both the employer and the employee. These unique health insurance plans<br />

incorporate healthy lifestyle strategies that can make you as a business owner<br />

approximately $500 per employee per year. In addition, employees can save<br />

up to $1,800 per year by participating in the healthy lifestyle campaign. We<br />

help connect you to partners who manage all the details and allow you to add<br />

this benefit without changing the quality of care or even changing insurance<br />

companies.<br />

Businesses need a partner whose primary<br />

focus is to make companies more profitable.<br />

This can be accomplished through<br />

operational, insurance and tax strategies<br />

by minimizing your income tax so you can<br />

maximize your working capital to strengthen<br />

your company. We want to share 6 strategies<br />

you should consider to increase profitability<br />

at your construction company:<br />

1. Conduct a Utility Audit<br />

A utility audit company can get you refunded<br />

for past overcharges while also saving on<br />

future bills. They will look back three years<br />

on your utility bills and determine if you<br />

have any bills you should not be paying. On<br />

average, 80-95% of companies qualify for a<br />

refund. They will also do an annual review<br />

for the next three years to help you find any<br />

additional savings.<br />

2. Apply for the Employee Retention Credit<br />

Employee Retention Credits (ERC) came<br />

out the same time as Paycheck Protection<br />

Program (PPP) loans as an incentive program<br />

to help stimulate the economy during the<br />

pandemic. Originally, you could choose<br />

either a PPP loan or ERC. At the end of 2020,<br />

Congress decided you could get both, as long<br />

as you back out the money received from<br />

your PPP loan employee forgiveness as well<br />

as other requirements. There are two ways to<br />

qualify for the ERC:<br />

4. Eliminate Credit Card Charges<br />

Credit card fees are changing dramatically. We can help you reduce or eliminate your credit<br />

card fees by using a merchant processing platform that lowers your monthly merchant credit<br />

card processing fee by up to 15-20%. You can also provide a potential rebate to each customer,<br />

putting money back in their pocket directly after each sale.<br />

5. Be Proactive with Tax Planning<br />

Tax planning is not planning how much tax you have to pay; tax planning is planning on how<br />

to minimize your tax liability by utilizing tax strategies. We can help you reduce your adjusted<br />

gross income through charitable strategies and tax-deductible investments. This is a more<br />

customized approach and is worth a conversation.<br />

6. Defer Your Capital Gains<br />

If you are selling your company at any point, you could be facing substantial capital gains. We have<br />

strategies to defer capital gains, thereby enabling you to earn investment income on what you<br />

would otherwise pay in taxes. We can also increase FDIC limits on cash balances above $1 million.<br />

To give you an idea on the cost savings if you took advantage of these strategies, we have<br />

included a sample Texas <strong>Construction</strong> Company with potential savings.<br />

Fictitious Texas <strong>Construction</strong> Company<br />

50 Employees <strong>Monthly</strong> credit card sales: $100,000 Utility costs: $20,000<br />

Texas <strong>Construction</strong> Company<br />

Strategy 1: Utility Audit Savings $24,000<br />

Strategy 2: Credit Card Savings $42,000<br />

Strategy 3: ERC Savings $756,000<br />

Strategy 4: Health Insurance Savings $25,000<br />

Strategy 5: Tax Planning Savings $285,392<br />

Aggregate Savings: $1,132,392<br />

As you can see, there are substantial savings in each strategy that your company could capitalize<br />

on. All of these strategies require no up-front cost to you, other than your time. By shifting to an<br />

offensive posture, you could save your company hundreds of thousands of dollars.<br />

PROJECT MANAGEMENT<br />

Scott Beebe<br />

Founder & Head Coach | Business on Purpose<br />

<strong>Build</strong>ing A Homebuilding and<br />

Remodeling Company That Attracts<br />

the RIGHT People Like a Division 1<br />

College Football Powerhouse<br />

Wednesday, June 28 | 11:15 a.m.-12:15p.m.<br />

Keynote Area<br />

As a Division 1 Football player in the powerful<br />

Southeastern Conference (SEC) Scott has seen firsthand the<br />

behind-the-scenes system that is being constantly updated<br />

and refined to ensure that athletically talented 16 and 17<br />

adolescents choose the right team.<br />

Remodeler and home builder owners are in a season of<br />

work where they have a choice: see the next generation<br />

as a hindrance with excuses like “they won’t work”, or to<br />

see this new generation as an opportunity to pivot with a<br />

renewed mindset like “I’m excited to see how they own the<br />

mission!”<br />

There is a shortage of workers for the old-school<br />

methodologies but there is not a shortage of people willing<br />

to work…towards the right mission.<br />

This life-changing and engaging keynote pulls from our<br />

work with hundreds of owners and gets you on the path to<br />

building a powerhouse team.<br />

You will be equipped to beat chaos with predictability, and<br />

to build a business that brings stability, life, and time for<br />

what matters most.<br />

Learning Objectives<br />

1. Learn The 3 Foundational Layers Of EVERY Contracting<br />

Business<br />

2. Understand the 5 Non-Negotiables Of <strong>Build</strong>ing And<br />

Leading A Vision-Centered Team<br />

3. Discover the key elements of powerhouse recruiting that<br />

will have you speaking to a younger generation the way<br />

they wish to be spoken to!<br />

PROJECT MANAGEMENT<br />

Recruiting And Hiring:<br />

The 4 Systems Every Home <strong>Build</strong>er<br />

And Remodeler Owner Needs To<br />

<strong>Build</strong> The Right People That <strong>Build</strong>s<br />

The Right Business<br />

Thursday, June 29 | 11:15 a.m.-12:15p.m.<br />

Keynote Area<br />

People, people, people! How do we find the right people to<br />

hire? How do we find ANY people to hire?<br />

The Boomers retired early, and the emerging generations<br />

are much more selective in the work they choose. How can<br />

you find the right people, recruit them the right way, share<br />

the right vision, and then onboard them the right way that<br />

aligns with the right mission?<br />

Re-imagine the business of your contracting firm with<br />

this engaging keynote talk drawing from our work with<br />

hundreds of contractor owners that led to our proprietary<br />

and proven road map.<br />

This road map will equip you to beat chaos with<br />

predictability, and to build the team that will build the<br />

business to make time for what matters most.<br />

Learning Objectives<br />

1. Learn the one culprit that keeps us from experience the<br />

deep work and flow that we want but can’t see to find<br />

2. Discover the 4 systems that all business owners must<br />

implement…regardless of size or scope<br />

3. Uncover the secret to a great culture that keeps and<br />

promotes great people<br />

Tom Woodcock<br />

President | Seal the Deal<br />

Selling Thru a Tough Economy<br />

Wednesday, June 28 | 1:15 p.m.-2:15p.m.<br />

Keynote Area<br />

We’re seeing volatile pricing formats, supply chain<br />

interruption and rising interest rates. This usually ends<br />

in tough economic conditions, resulting in construction<br />

industry challenges. Knowing the best way to stay ahead of<br />

these changes and keep your business moving forward is<br />

difficult. We’ll look at the methods successful contractors<br />

use to weather 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<br />

Scott Beebe<br />

Founder & Head Coach | Business on Purpose<br />

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

ingredients that you allow to enter into the building. Good<br />

ingredients equal good culture, and vice versa. Culture is<br />

more than ping pong tables and bean bag chairs. Culture is<br />

about relationships, connection, and communication.<br />

Culture will determine the joy that we find in running our<br />

business. We all want a great culture, and we know we have<br />

to work for it…but how? Most strategies include a crossyour-fingers<br />

approach.<br />

This fun and surprising workshop will remove the confusion<br />

around great culture and provide you with the action and<br />

clarity you need to build a culture that you are proud of and<br />

that all generations want to be a part of.<br />

Learning Objectives<br />

1. Clarify the elements of great culture, and identify<br />

distracting elements of bad culture so you can focus on<br />

the elements of great culture<br />

2. Walk away with a one page visual of building great culture<br />

in your business starting tomorrow<br />

3. Discover the motivation to stop wasting time and money<br />

on team outings and bonus plans that rarely move the<br />

needle<br />

Pella Corporation recently made two<br />

significant acquisitions: Bonelli and WinDor.<br />

These additions further enhance Pella’s already<br />

extensive portfolio, allowing homeowners<br />

and builders to choose from a wider range of<br />

window and door options. Whether it’s the<br />

timeless elegance of a single-hung window,<br />

the functionality of a sliding patio door, or<br />

the contemporary appeal of a bi-fold door,<br />

Pella has a solution to suit every style and<br />

preference.<br />

Pella’s commitment even extends to their<br />

industry-leading limited lifetime warranty,<br />

ensuring that builders can reduce callbacks<br />

after completion, and homeowners are taken<br />

care of for years to come.<br />

Mike Reed, Agnes and Eric Smithey are pictured.<br />

<strong>Houston</strong> Home <strong>Build</strong>ers Pick<br />

Pella for Innovative Products<br />

and Exclusive Support<br />

<strong>Houston</strong>’s booming housing market is<br />

creating a crunch for builders who<br />

specialize in custom and semi-custom<br />

homes, sending them searching for<br />

suppliers and partners who understand<br />

the unique challenges of the industry.<br />

One of the most important materials a<br />

builder sources for a homeowner is the<br />

windows and doors — a product that has<br />

the potential to make or break a timeline,<br />

budget, or customer confidence.<br />

That’s why more and more builders are turning<br />

to Pella Products of <strong>Houston</strong> for solutions<br />

that serve their homeowner’s needs. “We’re<br />

committed to providing an exceptional<br />

experience for builders and finding new ways<br />

to make their work easier,” said Agnes Smithey,<br />

new ownership partner at Pella Products of<br />

<strong>Houston</strong>.<br />

Agnes and Eric Smithey joined Principal Owner<br />

Michael Reed at Pella Products of <strong>Houston</strong><br />

in 2021, bringing 30+ years of industry<br />

experience to the team. Since then they have<br />

rolled out a new program for builders that<br />

includes training and support through the<br />

exclusive Pella Certified Contractor Program,<br />

as well as white-glove service at the job site.<br />

In addition to its existing product lineup, Pella<br />

Corporation recently made two significant<br />

acquisitions: Bonelli and WinDor. These<br />

additions further enhance Pella’s already<br />

extensive portfolio, allowing homeowners and<br />

builders to choose from an even wider range<br />

of window and door options. Whether it’s the<br />

timeless elegance of a single-hung window,<br />

the functionality of a sliding patio door, or<br />

the contemporary appeal of a bi-fold door,<br />

Pella has a solution to suit every style and<br />

preference.<br />

Pella Products of <strong>Houston</strong> has seen significant<br />

demand for its products and services, and<br />

its new experience center delivers. Visitors<br />

can explore a wide range of Pella products,<br />

including windows and doors of various styles<br />

and designs - displaying exceptional design<br />

and craftsmanship from single and doublehung<br />

windows to patio doors, casement and<br />

awning windows, multi-slides, bi-fold doors<br />

and windows, hinge doors, and pivot doors.<br />

It is also a space where clients can meet with<br />

the Pella team, ensuring personalized attention<br />

and tailored solutions.<br />

“We often hear that our state-of-the-art<br />

experience center is a game changer for<br />

our builders,” said Smithey. “Giving your<br />

homeowner a hands-on experience with the<br />

window and door selection builds trust in<br />

the products you’re putting in their home –<br />

and puts them in the driver’s seat during the<br />

selection process. So, they really understand<br />

how important their windows and doors are to<br />

loving their home for the long haul.”<br />

Proper installation is critical to performance,<br />

and Pella also offers professional installation<br />

services for single-family new construction,<br />

helping to alleviate labor shortage challenges<br />

for builders and ensuring a quality installation.<br />

With their award-winning products, limited<br />

lifetime warranty, and outstanding customer<br />

service, Pella Products of <strong>Houston</strong> is the<br />

preferred window and door partner for<br />

builders, homeowners, and contractors. Visit<br />

The Greater <strong>Houston</strong> <strong>Build</strong>ers<br />

Association (GHBA) welcomes you to<br />

the <strong>Houston</strong> <strong>Build</strong> <strong>Expo</strong>! Our region<br />

has one of the fastest growing housing<br />

markets in the country and the GHBA is the<br />

largest home builders’ association in Texas.<br />

GHBA’s more than 1,600 member companies<br />

not only consist of residential home builders,<br />

but also residential land developers,<br />

remodelers, engineers, subcontractors, and<br />

vendors, all affiliated with the home building<br />

industry.<br />

But why should you become a GHBA<br />

member? I’ve got six great reasons for you:<br />

Strength in Numbers:<br />

the best of all worlds — local networking and<br />

<strong>Build</strong> the future of our workforce<br />

As our members have dealt with labor<br />

shortages, GHBA has worked to build<br />

collaborations with education, training and<br />

employer partners, to ensure that we don’t<br />

lose students in homebuilding education<br />

programs to other industries. In 2022,<br />

<strong>Houston</strong> became home to the <strong>Build</strong>Strong<br />

Academy, powered by the Home <strong>Build</strong>ers<br />

Institute, where students can learn skills<br />

to gain employment in construction jobs<br />

for FREE. GHBA has also created a free<br />

job board for members to post their open<br />

positions at www.ghba.org/careers-inconstruction.<br />
