CATT Members Push the Job to Bid Program at the Truckee Home Show
A
new CATT booth location didn’t slow down CATT members who talked with hundreds of homeowners during the two day Truckee Home & Building Show on Memorial Day Weekend. Surpassing last year’s numbers, the 2016 CATT crew gave out 302 CATT Building & Remodeling Guides, 59 Job to Bid forms (plus 15 forms were filled out by homeowners at the CATT booth), 106 CATT carpenter pencils, 119 CATT magnets, 4 Prospective Member packets, and 100 CATT bags to carry show swag. While the conversations were ongoing, so was a continuous powerpoint loop of all project photos from the 2015 Awards Competition. There was a lot to see and hear at the CATT Booth! The personal touch does make a difference—many of the recent jobs to bid came in as a direct result of CATT member efforts at the Truckee Home & Building Show!
