BUSINESS
All the core principles of a successful remodeling company are here - Cash Flow; Calculating Mark-Up and Margin; Using a Paper Trail; Scheduling Strategies plus specialized learning including Hiring techniques; Leadership strategies and much more.  Typically one-third of the courses offered are in this track demonstrating our focus to keep your business healthy and running right.

MARKETING
You've got a business but how do you generate sales or better yet, start making more money?  You need to get the right jobs and the right clients and the education in this specific track will give you smart marketing skills without having to spend a bundle.  As one of the Remodeling Show's favorite marketing experts says "It's not how much you are spending, it's how you are spending".  We couldn't agree more so if you're mode of marketing is an advertisement in the phone directory or sending out thousands of blind postcards - this is your place!

SALES
The backbone of ANY profitable company - no matter what type it is.  No sales and your business will be shattered before you know it.  Traditionally the Sales track is a popular slate of courses but in the current market environment they are even hotter.  We can show you how to close more sales, handle objections and even create a vibrant sales team.  Keep the money coming in, that’s step #1 in creating a healthy business.

PRODUCTION
The job site - mess up here and all the profits you are expecting can go up in smoke.  You need smart systems and an expert hand to land the jobs at the price you quoted.  You did a careful and methodical estimate right?  Lead Carpenters, Production Managers and Field Crew can get technical instruction education as well as business learning specific to their needs including working with the client, jobsite organization and reading a job cost report.  The Production track has the second most number of courses indicating the importance of good field education.

SUSTAINABLE REMODELING
Designing and building remodeling projects with sustainability in mind doesn't always have to cost more than traditional construction methods.  The remodeling community is hungry for education and now has a track dedicated solely to green practices.  Forget those lofty, pie-in-the-sky types of green building - we focus on practical, real-world solutions that your clients can enjoy and see immediate benefits. 

KITCHEN & BATH / DESIGN
Ask most homeowners which room they want remodeled the most and likely you will hear kitchen or bath.  Getting into these types of projects takes a little finesse and an eye for detail especially as design trends evolve rapidly these days.  We’ll plug you into design aspects of the American kitchen/bath and what the clients are asking for most.  Taking a broader view, the design portion of this track explores the entire home translating previous building design into an updated, livable residence for today’s homeowner.
