IT'S HAPPENING! Visible construction for HHN35 has officially begun at Universal Orlando, which means speculation season is in full swing. This week, we're breaking down everything showing up around the parks, what it could mean for this year's event, and discussing what might be the most random rumor we've heard all season. Plus, we take a quick trip back to Carey, Ohio. A location longtime HHN fans know all too well and one that could be returning once again if the latest rumors hold true. The fog is getting closer, HHN35 is starting to take shape, and we're here to overanalyze every detail.
Most real estate agents know nothing about the homes they sell. Jennifer DeVito built a woman-owned construction and real estate company to fix exactly that.In this episode, I sit down with Jennifer DeVito, founder of Evolution, a design-build general contracting and real estate company on Long Island. Jennifer grew up running equipment on her parents' excavation sites, became the only woman managing 400 home builds for a national developer, and turned that into a business that combines buying, renovating, and selling under one roof.We get into why she charges sellers a flat fee instead of a percentage, how she gives buyers the true cost of a home before they make an offer, and why she trains alongside her 23 employees every single day.Jennifer is proof that you do not have to build your business the way men built theirs. If you are growing something in an industry that was not designed for you, this one is worth your time.Chapters:
The Obama Presidential Center was meant to lift up local contractors. Some say they're paying a high price for the project's delays and cost overruns.

Plus: Illinois joins states' challenge to Trump's anti-DEI contract rules, CME plans to offer 24/7 oil and gold contracts, Prada's Oak Street flagship building up for sale and Chicago gets one more shot at fixing the parking-meter mess.

He spent years on paving crews watching estimators hand-enter numbers into spreadsheets and wonder why nobody had fixed it yet — so he built the fix himself.

Everybody says they do "high end." Almost nobody looks the part. In this episode of the Contractor Growth Network podcast, Logan sits down with Devin Vought of Vought Construction — JobTread's 2025 Builder of the Year and a luxury home builder in the Bay Area whose clients are routinely worth hundreds of millions, sometimes billions. Devin breaks down what branding actually means when your prospects can buy anything they want. It's not the logo or the tagline. It's the client journey he's engineered behind the scenes — the demo-day party, the handmade pastries waiting for a client flying in from London, the white-collar warranty guy he sends over to hang a light fixture months before a contract is ever signed. Logan ties it back to the book Selling the Invisible: in a service business, the brand is the product before you can deliver it, so every touchpoint has to prove you'll handle what the client can't see behind the drywall. They get into uniforms and the "broken windows" theory on job sites, why trash cans everywhere beats nagging your subs, removing decision fatigue for busy clients, the real ROI of a website, and why Devin is now working to make Vought Construction stand on its own — without Devin. If you've ever felt like you're doing great work but can't get clients to pay what it's worth — or you want to move upmarket but don't look like a company that belongs there — this episode shows you the small, accumulating moves that actually raise your average job size.
Todd Dawalt spent more than 30 years in construction learning expensive lessons the hard way. In this episode, he reveals the one stage of every project where the most profit slips away, usually long before work even begins. He shares the counterintuitive shift that helps companies make more money without adding to the team. Todd also explains how one builder was leaving $400,000 on the table every year without knowing it. In this episode you will learn: Why hiring more people often makes a struggling business worse The part of a job where most inefficiencies hide, and why owners keep missing it What turns a fumbled project handoff into a smooth one The question that gets clients to gladly pay for work most contractors give away Where AI helps your business and where it can secretly hurt it Listen to the episode to learn more.

Most techs diagnose the one thing the customer called about, fix it, and leave. The best techs diagnose the whole system, because the thing they called about is never really on its own. That's the difference between a callback and a customer who buys the real fix. Chris Elmore breaks down what he calls common bonds: the things that tie every part of a home's system together. Age. Maintenance. Filtration. Construction. Two problems can look completely unrelated and still share the same water, the same age, the same install. Once you learn to see those bonds, you stop fixing isolated problems and start showing the customer the whole system, so they understand why the real fix matters instead of grabbing the cheapest band-aid. You'll learn: Why you start where the customer noticed the problem, not where you assume it is What common bonds are and how they connect problems that look unrelated How age, maintenance, filtration, and construction tie a whole system together How to set context and contrast in the first 15 minutes of a call Why technical excellence is the foundation under every communication skill Show notes and free resources: https://www.servextra.com/episodes/ Listen and subscribe: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5DlsGABopPu9Qq9NNhK4hu Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/windshield-time/id1386770507 All episodes: https://www.servextra.com/episodes/

Jon Dario is an author, speaker, and retail leadership expert who has held leadership roles with some of the top companies in the retail and financial services industries including Macy's, Gap, and Bank of America. He is currently CEO of a real estate company in the metro NY area. Jon is the creator of AIM, a system that turns managers into execution machines and enables them to deliver radically reliable results. His fifth book, AIM, is available for purchase. In this episode, Jon walks through the Pyramid of Standards, a framework for defining what matters most in your business and making sure your team executes on it every day. He built it in the Gap outlet division after watching managers prioritize the wrong things while customers walked out the door. Key takeaways: The Pyramid of Standards creates a hierarchy of what matters most—foundation first, supplemental later. Observation beats assumption. Walk your jobsites and see the business through the customer's eyes before setting standards. Follow-up frequency is the difference between standards that stick and standards that slip. Be predictable and relentless. Great leaders adopt a white belt mentality—they stay learners and unlock answers in their team instead of dictating them. Consistency and habits drive long-term success, not heroics in the bottom of the ninth.

WBSRocks: Business Growth with ERP and Digital Transformation
Send us Fan MailThe construction ERP market remains one of the most fragmented and industry-specific segments within enterprise software, making ERP selection particularly challenging in 2026. Before evaluating the top construction ERP systems, organizations must recognize that construction ERP extends far beyond large commercial contractors alone. The category includes a wide range of operational models, including general contractors, specialty trades, engineering and infrastructure firms, developers, public sector construction organizations, property maintenance providers, and real estate-focused businesses. These organizations vary significantly in project complexity, compliance requirements, subcontractor coordination, procurement workflows, field operations, and financial structures. As a result, construction ERP systems differ substantially in their project accounting models, job costing depth, resource scheduling capabilities, document management workflows, and field-service integration, making industry alignment and operational fit far more important than generic ERP functionality comparisons.In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top construction ERP systems in 2026. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these ERP systems. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each ERP system.Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu8rU9s8xaYRead: https://www.elevatiq.com/post/top-construction-erp-systems/Questions for Panelists?
