SUMMARY:Everything you need to know about Quoting and Estimating without AI with Duayne
DESCRIPTION:Running a successful\, profitable building business is all about knowing your numbers. However\, if you’re not pricing the work correctly\, the numbers you are checking don’t matter. You can’t make money if you haven’t priced the project right.\n\nThere are so many ways to price a building project that it can get very confusing. Then\, on top of that\, you have all these guys now promoting that AI can do it all for you. Don’t get me wrong\, AI can definitely help you out. But it’s still no different from any other way; you need to make sure everything has been allowed for.\n\nIn this call Duayne will be sharing and discussing his experience on quoting and estimating over the last 25 years\, the expensive lessons he has learnt and what he does now. Everything from-\n\n\nCreating templates\nDoing scopes of work for trades\nTracking information\nSetting expectations with trades and suppliers\nAllowing for waste\nWhy it’s so important to track costs during projects\nUsing past information to make more profit on future projects\nPutting in Notes\nWhy project Descriptions are so important\nRevisions and dates\, what most builders leave out\nYou can never have to many categories and items\n\nThe Objectives for this session are-\n\n\nGive you the confidence to estimate correctly\nGet more efficient at doing your Proposals\nUnderstand why information is so important\n\nThe Action items from this session-\n\n\n\nBuild out your own templates\nAdd notes to your current Proposals\nAdd descriptions\, dates and revision numbers to your current Proposals

SUMMARY:Building Partnerships with Contractors and Suppliers with Duayne
DESCRIPTION:Are you trying to keep up with everything yourself\, or are you building the right relationships to help your business succeed? \nThe building industry is constantly changing. Rules\, regulations\, compliance requirements\, products and building methods are continually evolving\, making it harder than ever for Builders to stay on top of everything. \nThe reality is\, you can’t know everything\, and you shouldn’t have to. \nOne of the most valuable things you can do as a Builder is build strong relationships with the right contractors and suppliers. These relationships are about much more than getting a good price or finding someone to do a job. The right people can become an extension of your team\, helping you stay informed\, solve problems\, improve your projects and make better business decisions. \nIn this Zoom session\, we’ll explore how to build and strengthen partnerships that add real value to your business\, why choosing the right people matters\, and how to move beyond simply working with contractors and suppliers to creating relationships built on trust\, communication\, and shared success. \nBecause the strongest building businesses aren’t necessarily the ones that know everything\, they’re the ones that know who to turn to\, who to trust\, and how to build a team of people who help them succeed. \n\n3 objectives for the Zoom session\n\nUnderstand the value of strategic partnerships — recognise how the right contractors and suppliers can help you keep up with industry changes\, reduce risk and improve business performance.\nIdentify the right people to have in your corner — learn what to look for in reliable\, proactive and knowledgeable industry partners.\nBuild relationships that create long-term value — understand how communication\, trust and mutual respect can turn everyday trade and supplier relationships into a competitive advantage.\n\n3 action items for Builders after the call\n\nAudit your current relationships. Identify your three most valuable contractor or supplier relationships and one area where your current partnerships could improve.\nStrengthen one key relationship. Reach out to a contractor or supplier and have a conversation about how you can work together more effectively\, share information and support each other’s businesses.\nFind a gap in your network. Identify one area where you’re struggling to keep up with industry changes or need better support\, then find a trusted industry professional who can help fill that gap.\n\nMy suggested closing line for the promotion: \nYou don’t need to have all the answers\, but you do need the right people around you. The relationships you build today could be one of the biggest advantages your building business has tomorrow. \nJoin us for this session and discover how the right relationships can make your business stronger\, your projects smoother\, and build partnerships with Contractors and Suppliers
