CONEXPO – CON/AGG Radio: Construction Technology Trends For Contractors
Brian Hess, the dynamic owner of The Pavement Group, Top Contractor School, and One Key Media, takes time out of his incredibly busy schedule to join Taylor on the podcast today to discuss his remarkable journey from construction to becoming a tech-savvy entrepreneur. Emphasizing the importance of creating a strong company culture and balancing family life with business, Brian's insights on authentic social media engagement, effective leadership, and the value of building meaningful relationships are both inspiring and motivational. Recounting the transition from his construction background to entrepreneurship, Brian highlights the diverse roles he has embraced. Along the way, he stresses the importance of authenticity over vanity metrics in social media and focusing on genuine content to build meaningful connections. Our very special guest also shares strategies for managing a growing business while maintaining a strong family presence, emphasizing the need for effective leadership and a supportive team. Through personal anecdotes, he illustrates the challenges and triumphs of business growth, underscoring the critical role of networking and long-term relationship building. As you will hear, today's episode with this truly multi-talented industry leader is absolutely jam-packed with valuable advice for anyone looking to succeed in the construction industry and well beyond. Topics: Brian's journey from construction to entrepreneurship Authenticity in social media Building a strong company culture Balancing business and family Effective leadership Navigating challenges and triumphs The value of networking and relationships Lessons learned Key Takeaways: "I will sacrifice followers, likes, and comments for authenticity. I'm not necessarily worried about every person in the world wanting to follow our journey. I'm looking for the right ones." "My biggest goal was to create a culture where people really love to come to work and they could be proud of what they were doing." "Busy people understand busy people. If somebody doesn't understand that you don't have time for something or your time is stressed, it's probably their misunderstanding of how busy people actually operate." "I think a lot of business owners are missing the boat on not having media as part of their strategy because that podcast is a way to coach your team." "We all need to do a better job in our industry of treating the customer really, really well, having great communication, having visibility, collaboration, and transparency in the process." "From the beginning of my social media journey, I was trying to appeal to a different audience than everybody else because, for me, it was a method to build relationships and find clients." “The number one priorities are my family, my businesses, the people that I'm responsible for in my life."

In this episode, "The Secrets to Successful Business Management w/ Daniel Good" hosted by Bill Reiman and Nate Swink, guest Daniel Good shares his experience of managing multiple businesses and the lessons he has learned from it. Daniel explains that it is not as glamorous as it sounds and that it is impossible to devote yourself to several different businesses at once. He admits that he made mistakes in the past, such as not having a leader or mentor to guide him, and that he was "winging it" without really understanding the nuts and bolts of the businesses. "My father passed away when I was 26, and I had to take on the role of leader at a young age. I had picked up both the good and bad habits from my father, and I had to learn the importance of true leadership," Daniel reflects. He eventually realized that true success was not about material possessions, but about creating a team effort and giving people the opportunity to be heard. Daniel had to tear down his business and rebuild it from the ground up, as it was operating with an old-school iron fist mentality. He had to get rid of the stuff, the people, and the leadership, and create new standards and expectations. Daniel also joined Top Contractor School (TCS) and learned how to fix himself. He shares how the organization has helped him to have meaningful relationships and to push away relationships that weren't aligned with his vision and goals. Daniel emphasizes the importance of having a leader or mentor to guide you, and encourages the audience to listen to the podcast to learn more about his story. "True success is not about material possessions, but about creating a team effort and giving people the opportunity to be heard. Leadership is not about being abrasive, but about creating a sense of trust and respect." The episode ends with the hosts and guest emphasizing the importance of joining the organization if you want to make a change and be surrounded by winners.

In this episode of The Real Build, I wanted to talk about my recent trip to Pittsburgh for the Top Contractor School Summer Retreat and what great information I took from it. TCS is a construction group that Ive been a part of for about seven months now. The group is full of high-performing contractors trying to improve all aspects of their lives, most notably our business. I took so much from this retreat and formed many more friendships and close relationships with contractors. I think a big issue with contractors is they don't like to share practices that have helped them succeed in the industry. This is a problem, and the more you come together as an industry, the better our industry will be.

If 2020 showed me anything, it was were my weaknesses were as a business owner. One that was glaring to me at the end of the season was just how unorganized I was, especially in my role as the leader. I always preach efficiency to my team, but realized, I was incredibly inefficient with my tasks. One person I know, that juggles a lot of tasks and hats in this world, is my buddy Brian Hess of The Pavement Group. As the President/CEO of The Pavement Group, a national Pavement company. Brian's family is his greatest source of pride and motivation. He carves out time for them regularly, if you follow him on Social Media, you know that. Brian also runs Top Contractor School, which garners a lot of his attention. He also hosts a podcast, does speaking and coaching. So, how does he stay organized and efficient? I pick his brain and ask some questions that I think you as a listener may wonder, but also... I was asking for myself. I came away with some great takeaways from this conversation and I hope you will too. Thanks for listening and here's to 2021 being productive. -Marvin

He has built up an asphalt empire across the US in the last couple years, and also started a training program called Top Contractor School to help contractors of all sizes grow and dominate their space.
