January 27, 2021 65. Quit Getting Screwed (feat. Karalynn Cromeens)
We invite an attorney to talk about how to protect yourself as a subcontractor. Karalynn Cromeens, the writer of “Quit Getting Screwed”, talks about how to keep from agreeing to put your company out of business. We ask about liens, bonds, and how to leverage those things to help your employees and keep your company from no longer being a company. Karalynn brings some amazing points about how to read and look for parts of a contract that are there to push the burden to subcontractors and suggest other options to negotiate to receive.

January 20, 2021 Coffee with the Bros: Table Topics
We look into fun new technologies and take a new look at some old technologies. This is a grab bag episode, there is a little bit of something for everyone! We talk about the logistics of Amazon Lockers and how cell phones are changing the scanning process. We end our discussion taking a step back and evaluating prefab and modularization. Is this just buzz? Is there truly validity? Are we as an industry doing it well?

January 13, 2021 The Million Dollar Pen Stroke (feat. David Stutzman)
We wanted to start up 2021 with something we can all get a little better doing. Let’s treat it like a resolution. David Stutzman from Conspectus shows us how to use specifications like a tool for success rather than a baseball bat to beat each other over the head with. For our subcontractors and general contractors out there, David brings a view on how to use specifications without drowning in a sea of pen strikes. For specification writers, David talks about how to help out the people that have to follow the specifications. For architects and owners, he brings how to cut cost, add value, and simplify life for everyone involved in the project.

January 06, 2021 Be Like Yoda & Sell More Projects - REPOST - (feat. Bryan Kaplan)
We're revisiting our episode with Bryan Kaplan this week! We welcomed Bryan Kaplan of Construction Consulting to talk about relational selling and how, when done properly, clients can turn into a free salesforce. Storytelling, believe it or not, is another valuable asset to have in the world of sales. But first things first, we talk about the stereotypes surrounding video conferencing and some of the best fails we've seen and heard of while people are chatting on Zoom.

December 30, 2020 Gripes for Architects REPOST
This week we revisit our conversation about Gripes for Architects. As people who see over 100 drawing sets a year cross our threshold, you better believe we've found a few things Architects do that are pain points. So this week, at the request of an Instagram follower who is an Architect, we dive into some issues that we commonly run into as modelers. This isn't meant to slam architects, but to inform and try to spur conversation.
