Helping Building Industry Brands Win On Purpose | We Build Unmistakable Brands with Visibility, AI, and Strategy | Founder, Grit Blueprint | Speaker & Media Strategist
The future of this industry won’t be handed down. It will be built by the ones willing to change. I spoke at the IHI Conference in Orlando last week as a brand partner for Do it Best, and True Value Company. I spent time with the bold next-gen owners and leaders.. Hardware store owners. Lumber yard teams. Next-gen leaders stepping into big shoes. They are growing legacy businesses. But... they’re not chasing trends. They’re asking better questions. → How do we show our value online? → How do we modernize without losing our story? → How do we keep what's great & grow what's needed? These are the game changers. They're testing new ideas & tech. They’re not waiting for permission. They’re building what’s next. That’s who I build for. And if that’s you... I’m excited to build something LEGENDARY together. Because this isn't your grandfather's business. It's 2025. Let's make it the best version for NOW. #buildingindustry #construction #hardware #buildingmaterials P.S. What does the word legacy mean to you?
