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!

Testimonials

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.
— Barbara Kotsos, Director of Marketing & PR, Giroux Glass
I’m blown away with the value that could come out of our partnership through this article. Working with the US Builders Review team is something that I have never experienced before and every day I feel even more privileged to be with EJH Construction, I never take for granted the opportunities that have come my way.  I am so excited about what our future looks like based on the relationship that has been built with the US Builders Review team.

Working with Kyle at TrueLine Publishing was a great experience. We are quite pleased with how the article about Souder Brothers turned out. The magazine article and photo spread is going to be a very effective tool to use in our marketing. If you have the opportunity to be featured in a project like this, I would recommend doing it. Kyle and his team made the whole process very smooth and we are happy to have been a part of the latest edition of US Builders Review.

I was contacted as a nominee for the Greenbuild Editor’s Choice 2016 recognition and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Working with US Builders Review has been a blessing for my company. Erica Berry took an awesome interview in the initial call as she gathered data for the article. She was concerned about how we became us, and she made me feel important by listening and taking notes. Then there is Ian Nichols who made me feel so comfortable in sharing my story, and Molly Shaw who interviewed me as well, as she was getting ready to create an awesome article about my company -- and I must say she nailed it on the first run! What a pleasure it has been to work with everyone. This feature on Container Homes USA will help me push the company into the forefront at the Greenbuild Expo 2016.
