In this episode the guys minus Ed catch up on a crazy couple of weeks. Kyle and Mikey get to talk about Ed in his absence. And they read some of the best reviews of the week.
Mikey shares that he hasn’t been
in the shop because he has been getting his house ready to go on
the market. He gives us the reason why he prefers to post current
content on Instagram and how his partnership with a tool
company is helping them
grow. They both agree on how important brand ambassadors and
content creators are for companies wanting to have an online
presence, such as in Ed’s case.
Kyle
updates us on his current project and a symposium he attended
recently. He talks about how he balances posting on social media
and being present at events. They both discuss the pros and cons of
different drones and how certain media files allow more
post-processing options. Kyle explains how ordering materials and
build-time is affecting future projects and
bids.
Mikey tells us who came to visit
him while they were in town and how he is figuring out how to move
his tools to his new shop. Kyle reveals what projects he and his
brother have been working on and how his parent’s house project is
moving forward.
They
both discuss niche tools and how competition between the bigger
tool brands differs from smaller tool brands when it comes to
secrecy with their production and products.
In the final segment, Mikey reads a
few reviews from iTunes. Kyle informs us that the podcast was
nominated for the Best Construction Podcast of 2018 and encourages
listeners to
vote for the If You Build IT
Podcast. They both
encourage listeners to add a review to iTunes. Mikey admits his pet
peeves when it comes to movie theaters and Kyle got to go camping
with his son’s Boy Scout troop.
