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!

It was an absolute pleasure to work with the writers and editorial team at TrueLine Publishing for our recent article in US Builders Review. From the start of the project, it was apparent that everyone involved was very concerned with accuracy and getting the facts right. They were also very conscientious about soliciting our feedback and ensuring that we were happy with the content and with the manner in which Giroux Glass was described in the finalized piece.

Thank you all your efforts in putting together such a great article about our company in US Builders Review.

In short, the article was extremely well put together and we have already received a great deal of feedback, interest, and compliments as a result of the piece. Once again, we appreciate all the effort, and without a doubt, we will not hesitate to work with your organization again in the future.

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
Kyle and his team were very professional and patient in explaining their program to us. Their communications were clear and concise and did a great job of guiding us through the process of getting published in their magazine.
— Michael Henthorn, Owner, Henthorn Commercial Construction
The process was simple: we were provided questions that the writers wanted to discuss, we were interviewed, and then we got to see a few drafts before the final version went to print. Given the quality of this publication, on behalf of Giroux, I can assure everyone that all of my partners would be happy to participate in similar articles in the future.
— Barbara Kotsos, Director of Marketing & PR, Giroux Glass

The final product was an exceptionally well written and thorough story integrated with many of our project photos.
