Friday, October 27 Recruiting Workforce Development Luncheon

11:45 a.m. | $35 | Room #204 The story of Ken and Ryan Parsons, The Brothers That Just Do Gutters, started with hard work and a dream to be a community-loved contractor. The goal was to create a unique experience with the homeowner, invest in their employees, source the best products, and create training methods for their staff. They did all of these and started to rise above the rest. Their approach to recruiting, training, and fostering employee’s growth are all reasons why they are experts at this.

Ryan and Ken Parsons have proven to be very successful in hiring and retaining top talent in their company. Join them for a lunch-and-learn conversation on what Ryan terms “relentless recruiting” and how and why you should be recruiting every single day.

Embracing Change in the Workplace

W01 | Room 201A | Speaker: Soraya Morgan Gutman G What do Abraham Lincoln, Dale Carnegie, and Holocaust survivor, Elie Wiesel, all have in common? You will learn what history and research have proven are three specific activities you can do now to embrace the rapid changes happening now in your company and turn challenges into opportunity. You can’t control what is happening in your work and personal environment, but you can control how you react to these forces. You will learn specific techniques on how to lead by example in a direction that your team will embrace, encourage, and admire even in the midst of chaos.

Manage Your Customer, Eliminate the Punch List, and Get Paid Every Time, On-Time

W02 | Room 201B | Speaker: Shawn McCadden, CR, CLC, CAPS G Wouldn’t it be great to totally eliminate the punch list so there are no unexpected surprises at the end of what you thought was a satisfactory construction or remodeling job?

By first exploring why punch lists happen, Shawn McCadden will show you how you can manage your customers, avoid surprises through your pre-construction meetings and precompletion meetings, and craft payment schedules and payment terms that help you collect your money on time every time. It can be done! Learn how!

REMODELING’s 50 Favorites

W03 | Room 202A | Speaker: Craig Webb G REMODELING editor-in-chief, Craig Webb has visited 49 states and several countries in search of stories. In this rapid-fire presentation, he delivers his 50 (current) favorite ideas involving marketing, money, operations, sales, and management that he’s picked up as a result of those travels. If what you’re hearing right now doesn’t interest, wait a minute— the next idea might make your entire trip worthwhile.

Value-Based Selling

W04 | Room 202B | Speaker: Brian Altmann, CAPS S As professionals, we are not a commodity and cannot afford to sell remodeling based on price. In order to achieve the proper net margin, it is crucial to understand and implement the art of Value-Based Selling! The course objective is to shift our mindset and focus on our Unique Selling Proposition and how we can differentiate ourselves from our competition. Attendees will learn proven value building sales techniques that will have your clients eager to invest more for your services.

The Nuts and Bolts of Deck Engineering

W05 | Room 202C | Speaker: Kim Katwijk D B M It’s more than span charts, load paths, decking, and railing choices. We will look at the whole deck and how to build decks that last. You will learn from deck collapses—what caused them and how to design a better deck. No matter if you’ve been building for twenty years or just beginning, you will gain new perspectives on deck building.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 25 10:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

How to Connect to Anyone, Regardless of Age, Background, and Temperament

W06 | Room 201A | Speaker: Soraya Morgan Gutman G H Is there someone you need to work with but have a hard time connecting to? If so, you will learn four, hands-on tools you can use immediately to neutralize any discussion so you can get them to do what you need done—positively—by the use of specific words, body language, and a clear attitude.

A Call-to-Action and an Opportunity for Carpenters: Business Owners, There’s a Lesson Here for You Too W07 | Room 201B | Speaker: Shawn McCadden, CR, CLC, CAPS G Scaled back due to the recession, most remodeling businesses now need to ramp back up as the workload picks up and the economy improves. As it does, it will create some great opportunities for career-minded carpenters to advance their careers and their compensation. You will leave this session with a knowledge of typical compensation rates and methods for different job positions and responsibilities, how to determine if you are working at or taking a job with a company that will invest in your career, and what training and job experiences you will need to advance your career.

The Five Most Important Meetings to Master Production

W08 | Room 202A | Speaker: Tim Faller P Meetings are boring unless they serve a purpose and create success. This session will discuss the five most important meetings—from a production perspective—and how you can make them highly effective. Bring your entire team to this session to learn how everyone contributes. Tim will discuss the “big five”, how to make meetings productive, pitfalls that make each meeting feel like a waste, and will provide sample agendas to get your meetings back on track.

How Much to Charge… Estimating Made Easy!

W09 | Room 202B | Speaker: Brian Altmann, CAPS G Have you ever wondered how much to charge for a remodeling project? It’s time to remove the guesswork and have a fool proof and simple process to get it right every time!

We will review a step-by-step process that explains direct job costs as well as overhead and net profit. Attendees will come away from this discussion with a clear path to estimating properly while understanding the numbers and will learn to capture and account for all time on the job.

conference sessions (cont.)

Tips and Trends for Kitchen and Baths

W10 | Room 202C | Speaker: Adam Gibson, CMKBD, CAPS K D

Learn from an award-winning Certified Master Kitchen and Bath Designer (CMKBD) who’s known for designing with an infusion of natural light, who embraces new technologies, and who will share new products and techniques, many from the annual Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS). Adam will display trends, innovations that you may not know about, and will reveal tips and tricks to plan for your clients’ futures without sacrificing style.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 25 1:30 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.

Developing Dynamic Production Systems

W11 | Room 201A | Speaker: Tim Faller P Perhaps your company is fairly new or because of the growth in the economy your production department is scrambling to keep up. Perhaps you have been running a Lead Carpenter system but there just aren’t enough good Lead Carpenters to cover all the work. What are the options? This session will detail many of the different systems that are being used in companies all over the country in small to very large firms. We will discuss the options that are out there, the benefits and drawbacks of each, at what milestones the shift from one to the next should occur, and how transitions can be handled effectively.

Managing and Mitigating Risk in the Estimating Process

W12 | Room 201B | Speaker: Leslie Shiner, MBA G All it takes is one or two bad jobs to destroy years of profits.

To prevent risks from sinking your business, you must identify, understand, and quantify the risks you face—financial, contractual, and operational. Managing risk starts with the estimating process and runs through the entire workflow, including the effects on your relationships with clients, subcontractors, and employees. This session will equip you with the tools to manage risk by teaching you how to assess, measure, and mitigate risk and then be able to proceed on your jobs with confidence. Attendees will leave with several worksheets to learn how to quantify risk.

Prepping for the Sale

W13 | Room 202A | Speaker: Jerry Harris, CGR, CGB, CAPS S

Do you have a specific game plan for every sales call you make? Is it a plan tailor-made for the folks you are visiting? A methodical, well-planned, consistent, and repetitive approach can virtually eliminate surprises and allow you to focus on the client, address their needs, and close the deal. It doesn’t matter if you are the owner wearing many hats or if your only job is to make the sale—preparation is the key. This session will help you understand the components of the sales call prep process and develop your own template to prepare yourself for the sales call (battle).

Transitional Trim Details: When Less Is More

W14 | Room 202B | Speaker: Gary Striegler P M There is a strong demand today for Craftsman style millwork.

Many clients today are seeking simpler trim details. They describe it as un-cluttered, clean lines. I like to think of it as East Coast traditional meets West Coast contemporary. No matter what you call it, getting the proportions right is critical.

Gary will cover guidelines for transitional trim design, show examples of all types of applications from completed jobs, and share his methods and tips for creating these unique moldings using tools you already own. Don’t miss this session if you want to be known as a true Craftsman and use your skills to build a brand for yourself.

Be “Smart Home” Ready: Incorporating Technology into Current and Future Projects W15 | Room 202C | Speaker: Panel: Jamie Briesemeister, Adam Gibson, CMKBD, CAPS, Christopher Wright and Moderator: Ryan Herd T This interactive panel discussion will focus on the “how-to’s” for incorporating current and future smart home technology solutions into existing homes. A panel of well-known and highly respected NARI, NKBA, and CEDIA member experts will share suggestions for putting today’s coolest technology solutions into place. Also discussed will be collaboration tips for building a successful team, and how (and when) to get all stakeholders involved. Smart home products, whether or not they are a good fit for your client, the value they provide, and ways to use them to increase bottom-line profits will be highlighted as well.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 25 3:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Why Your Marketing Isn’t Working

W16 | Room 201A | Speaker: Joaquin Erazo, Jr. M Over the last few years, remodelers have continued to implement old and outdated marketing strategies and tactics, but results and ROI have both declined. Have you ever wondered why some companies are getting better results from marketing tactics than you? Do you have the wrong message? What if you have the right message, but it’s placed in the wrong media? This session will highlight the ten most common marketing mistakes and what remodelers can do to avoid them.

Ten Steps to Becoming a More Profitable Construction Business

W17 | Room 201B | Speaker: Leslie Shiner, MBA G Construction industry success is rarely a question of working harder; more often greater success comes from creating appropriate business management systems that will help a contractor manage the office and his jobs more profitably.

“Appropriate” is the key term—each contractor’s needs vary.

In this session, contractors will be given a roadmap (ten steps) to help them evaluate, implement, and utilize key construction management systems that, if used correctly, almost always lead to higher profitablity and greater peace of mind.

Leads=Jobs=Referrals=Jobs=Referrals=Jobs

W18 | Room 202A | Speaker: Jerry Harris, CGR, CGB, CAPS S M

Have you ever said “I don’t need to do any marketing. All my work comes from referrals.” That’s a beautiful thing. Have you decided you want to grow your business? Are you going to do that by slowly building on referrals over a period of years?

Nothing wrong with that but do you want to be a little more aggressive? This session will expose you to Cloverleafing, a way to methodically put the power of referrals—both direct and indirect—to work for you.

Building in the ”Fast” Lane—Best Practices for Avoiding Costly Mistakes

W19 | Room 202B | Speaker: Gary Striegler Have you ever said: “the faster I go the more behind I get,” “If we hurry we should have time to do this twice,” “If we don’t have the time to do this right when are we going to find time to redo it?” Every contractor has uttered these or similar words.

We all know that keeping a project moving equals happy clients and greater profits. The trick is to get the details right while you are making great progress. This session will show you how to avoid structural mistakes, include steps to avoid costly drywall patches, identify common mistakes made by the mechanical trades, and how to get the little things right that make a big difference in how your job looks at the end.

P M

Recruiting Long Term Employees and Training Your Way to Freedom W20 | Room 202C | Speaker: Ryan & Ken Parsons G H Good help is out there, and they are dying to work for you!

The problem is, you are not looking in the right places. This session will offer out-of-the-box recruiting ideas to attract already working professionals that will help you grow your business.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26 7:30 a.m. – 9:00 a.m.

Hiring and Firing—Welcome to Your Next Lawsuit!

T01 | Room 201A | Speaker: D.S. Berenson, Esq. H L Why is the hiring and firing process so risky for contractors?

Join the industry’s leading law firm to learn why so much of the traditional HR and consultant advice about employees keeps causing so many problems and what you can do about it. Join an in-depth discussion on protecting yourself and your business from employment-related litigation, wage claims, EEOC claims, government investigations, and class actions. Following the presentation will be an open Q&A with the attorneys specializing in defending contractors from employment-based claims.

Time is Money: Four Tools to Boost Profits

T02 | Room 201B | Speaker: Leslie Shiner, MBA G Just like having the right tools on the job, your business needs the right tools to consistently achieve profits. By focusing on four significant ‘time factors’, you can better manage jobs and improve profitability. Examine four tools to boost profits in your own company.

Storytelling is the New Marketing

T03 | Room 202A | Speaker: Joaquin Erazo, Jr. M Old feature and benefit marketing is dead. Consumers have changed. Our brains are wired to understand stories and remember them. Why do remodeling and replacement companies still use old feature and benefit marketing messages that no longer work? In this session, you will see real examples of home improvement company stories, learn the key elements to tell you story in a compelling fashion, determine how to set yourself apart from the competition, and discover which media channels are most effective to tell stories.

Ten Commandments of Remodeling

T04 | Room 202B | Speaker: Alan Hanbury, Jr.,CAPS,CGR,CGP,GMR G Alan will share some hard-learned lessons on successfully managing a remodeling company to profitability. Participants will be challenged about some of their core beliefs for business success and provided with alternative courses of action for business profitability and will learn how to figure actual cost of labor and effect of slippage or discounting on business success.

Professional Photographer: Shoot Like One... or Hire One T05 | Room 202C | Speaker: Adam Gibson, CMKBD, CAPS D You put tons of effort into making great projects, but do you employ photography that best represents your high quality? Do your images compare to those in national design magazines? In this two-for-one program you’ll learn how to create striking architectural photographs on your own and increase your bottom line AND what to look for when hiring a professional architectural photographer. Architectural photography is not like any other. Knowing what will draw the viewer’s eye to what you want them to see, namely, your work, is critical. You’ll see how some photographers get it wrong, and how to avoid those mistakes. Want to try it on your own? Learn from a designer who is also a professional photographer.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26 9:30 a.m. – 11:00 a.m.

Profit as Seen from the Jobsite

T06 | Room 201A | Speaker: Tim Faller G P Do you want your production staff—from lead carpenters to the production manager—to understand why the jobs cost so much and where all the money goes? This session will bring it all down to earth for them so that they will understand why net profit is important to the company and to them and how they impact the bottom line. This interactive session has helped many field personnel to say, “Oh, now I understand” and helped companies work together on creating net profit.

Residential Technology Trends That You Can’t Afford to Miss

T07 | Room 201B | Speaker: Dave Pedigo T Home integration and automation are no longer options, they are necessities for comfort, safety, and livability in today’s design, build, and remodeling markets! So, with this “new normal” now firmly in place, the need for knowledge regarding emerging residential technology trends is imperative.

Differentiate your company from your competitors! With consumer expectations increasing and the inevitability of technology growing more and more, design/build professionals must keep up-to-date with technology trends.

This course offers attendees the opportunity to gain valuable knowledge from a residential technology expert about the most up-to-the-minute developments, applications, and solutions that will give them a very sharp competitive edge.

Turning a Stranger into a Client

T08 | Room 202A | Speaker: Jerry Harris, CGR, CGB, CAPS S Getting the signature and a check isn’t the result of a game of chance, it’s the professional execution of your sales presentation game plan. During this session, we will take a close look at techniques to navigate the quirks and twists that occur when you are face-to-face with the strangers you want to call clients.

Business Planning

T09 | Room 202B | Speaker: Alan Hanbury, Jr., CAPS, CGR, CGP, GMR G Participants will learn the value of planning for expenses and profits as well as having common goals created for their whole team.

Join the industry’s leading law firm to discuss the real-world risks to the remodeling contractor in 2017 and how to avoid them.

Join an in-depth discussion on protecting yourself and your business from litigation, government investigations, partner fights, class actions, and employment claims. Learn how to build, protect and defend your specialty remodeling operations in 2017.

Secrets to Building a Lead Nurturing Program

T13 | Room 202A | Speaker: Joaquin Erazo, Jr. M Remodeling is a big decision. In fact, for most homeowners, it’s an infrequent purchase similar to buying a home, car, boat, or similar large ticket items. As a result, the consideration and buying cycle tend to last months or longer. This means most people contacting you aren’t ready to make a decision today. This session will show you why you can’t depend on sales people to nurture your leads, how to select content that moves prospects from considering to purchasing, and how homeowners buy remodeling.

Designing a Healthy Home (and we don’t mean emotionally)

T14 | Room 202B | Speaker: Adam Gibson, CMKBD, CAPS D As homes became tighter and more efficient, many new technologies and innovations came to market. Be enlightened regarding some of the most harmful elements we put into our designs and learn preventatives. Learn about lighting (including daylighting), planning for aging, and water solutions. This comprehensive presentation will surprise many when they realize how to affect indoor air quality by reducing elements that off-gas perpetually—including common household items—and how to make positive changes. It may not be sexy, but you will better your clients’ lives with this powerful information.

Efficient Project Planning and Scheduling

T15 | Room 202C | Speaker: Kristy Wolfe G P The intermingling of project planning and scheduling are critical to a project’s success in terms of time, money, quality, and safety. In this session, an interactive approach to project planning and scheduling for the subcontractor will be highlighted. Early and continued interaction between the contractor and the owner is crucial. Proactive approaches for the planning and scheduling processes will be addressed, to include preconstruction meeting involvement, crew size identification, and conflict management techniques.

Scheduling techniques will also be addressed to include shortterm schedules, look ahead schedules, and float management.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.

Taking Aging-in-Place and Universal Design to the Next Level

F01 | Room 201A | Speaker: Bill Owens, CAPS, CGP, CGR M D With industry roots dating back to the early 2000’s, agingin-place design and home modification has grown in market share. Many sales opportunities exist but well-executed messaging is contingent upon understanding the three distinct buyers segments that comprise those wishing to age-inplace. In addition, significant business can be derived from homeowners of all ages by companies that understand and can properly execute well-conceived universal design, which has the advantage of augmenting or enabling more cost effective aging-in-place but doesn’t carry the “baggage” that is so often linked to specific aging-in-place related home modifications.

This course will compare and contrast these “close cousins” in regards to remodeling as well as new home construction.

The Design Prescription: Designing for Alzheimer’s

F02 | Room 201B | Speaker: Theresa Clement D Join our discussion of a Design Prescription for Alzheimer’s.

We will share design fundamentals that can help and explore more solutions to a design prescription that is more nurturing, less stressful, and more empowering in spaces for families living with challenging health situations.

What You Must Do to Make a Great First Impression

F03 | Room 202A | Speaker: Kyle Hunt M Your first conversation with a homeowner is important—very important. In this session, you will learn what you need to do to start setting an expectation of what doing business with you is going to be like and start explaining how you are different that other remodelers. Kyle will walk you through all the steps you need to stand out from the first conversation.

The Future of Remodeling

F04 | Room 202B | Speaker: Bill Millholland G It’s time to peer into the crystal ball. Client expectations, legislation, product proliferation and labor challenges are changing the business of remodeling at this very moment. And then there’s that technology thing… But imagine what forces might be shaping our industry in five, ten or even twenty years.

How will we find new clients? Sell jobs? Build projects? Who is your competition? Change is coming to remodeling and it’s coming fast. Understanding what that change might be and being prepared to deal with it could make a big difference in your business. Buckle up…

Effective Jobsite Leadership

F05 | Room 202C | Speaker: Kristy Wolfe G H Effective jobsite leadership is one of the most critical aspects of keeping a project on time and under budget while maintaining quality and safety. In this session, supervisors and project managers will learn how to identify personality type indicators of their team members, which plays a key role in team dynamics, and learn how to capitalize on the strengths of individuals and how to utilize those strengths to enhance the team’s efficiency. Supervisors will also be given tools for their own self-assessment, which will identify both strengths and weaknesses. Once weaknesses are identified, supervisors will learn techniques to improve on those areas, which will help to strengthen their leadership abilities.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27 1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m.

Ten Steps to Help You Manage Your Online Ratings

Five Powerful Words when Talking with a Prospective Client

F08 | Room 202A | Speaker: Kyle Hunt M The five powerful words are, “This is how we work.” Do you have a written remodeling process? If you don’t, you should. Your prospects want to see it, and it can certainly help differentiate you. In this lesson, you’ll receive dozens of sample remodeling processes and resources to help you creatively and easily put together your remodeling process.

Building and Managing a Sales Team

F09 | Room 202B | Speaker: Bill Millholland S Remodeling firms come in many different shapes and sizes.

While there are multiple paths to building a successful business, there are a few items that can’t be debated. One of them is the importance of sales. Without sales the business will fail. But building and managing a sales team can be a daunting task. How do you transition from the Owner selling all projects to a sales team? Why would that be a good decision? When is the best time to hire? Are there common characteristics of successful salespeople? What is the biggest obstacle to a new hire’s success? Is managing salespeople different than managing other people? Any best practices for sales management? All these question and many, many more will be addressed in this fast paced session.

1319 Simpson Strong-Tie Deck Safety Demonstration

Many Americans view adding a deck to their home as a simple, do-it-yourself project. However, since 2003, there have been thousands of reported injuries and more than 20 deaths as a result of deck collapse. To help raise awareness about the prevalence of deck collapse and promote code-compliant deck construction, Simpson Strong-Tie will stage a live deck collapse on-site.

The demonstration features a deck that is 8 ft. wide by 6 ft. deep and 7 ft. tall. Although the decks look similar, one is safe and the other is not. Come see if you can tell the difference while learning about the common causes of deck failure and the five warning signs of an unsafe deck. We also will discuss the critical connections on a safe, code-compliant deck.
