Shop Talk: 10 Strategies to Reboot Your Trade Relationships

What It's About

Builders can’t build without trades, and trades can’t thrive without builders. The strongest partnerships are a free-flowing, two-way street. If your projects are constantly behind schedule, over budget, or plagued with rework—have you considered you might be the one blocking traffic? In this candid Shop Talk, we’ll explore and discuss 10 proven practices leading builders use to level up their trade relationships. Gleaned from 30+ years of hands-on work with builders and subcontractors across the U.S. and Canada, these no-fluff strategies will help ensure your jobsites run clean, tight, and on time with fewer headaches, zero defects, and trade partners who want to work with you. Participants will also have the chance to share their own challenges and successes, swap best practices, and exchange ideas with top builders from across the country.
