Greenbuild 2014: 3 Lessons Learned

After much anticipation, the wait is finally over — Greenbuild 2014 has arrived! Day one of the expo opened at 9:30 this morning and our team was there bright and early to join in the fun. 

With only hours prior to the expo hall being open to thousands of attendees, Ian and Ryan, our US Builders Review reps, met up with each of our 2014 Editor’s Choice companies to set up iPad and laptop displays of their custom digital brochure cover photos. In addition to taking some really cool pics, which you can find on Twitter, the guys also passed out information regarding ways to connect with other inudstry-leading businesses on our website and social media networks.

Here are 3 lessons Ian and Ryan learned their first day at Greenbuild:

1. WaterFence‘s Steve McDowell is pretty smart. As a high school student and inventor, he is drawing a great deal of attention for his innovative new product.

2. Aeroseal has been very busy answering questions from attendees. Interestingly enough, the gentleman working at their booth worked on every project pictured in their digital brochure!

3. Do not tell anyone you rode in a cab to the Greenbuild Conference & Expo unless you carpooled with other attendees. That’s a green faux pas. 

That wraps up day one of Greenbuild 2014! The conference will start up again Thursday morning and continue to the weekend with workshops, evening events, and many more opportunities to learn more about the exhibiting companies. Ian, Ryan and the rest of the US Builders Review team will be sending in more updates throughout the conference, so stay tuned!

My experience with US Builders Review was positive from start to finish. The staff conducted each interaction with the utmost professionalism, whether over the phone or by email. Beginning with the initial telephone interview US Builders Review carefully gathered information to form a draft document then incorporated my minimal edits required to achieve factual accuracy in the finished article. US Builders Review is a pleasure to work with.

What a great team US Builders has put in place! Having worked with Victor Martins a few years back, I was pleasantly surprised that he remembered our experience and contacted us again about an updated article. Not only did Victor brainstorm with me about content that would resonate with readers, but he assigned an excellent writer, Molly Shaw, to our account. Her interview with my client, Bardi Heating Cooling & Plumbing, was professional and succinct; as was her writing style. We had very few edits and were pleased not only with the article, but how well it was enhanced by color photos. Much appreciated!
— Karen Bird, Owner of Strategic Marketing Services, Bardi Heating Cooling & Plumbing
