Summit & Showcase ∙ Exclusive sessions
BUSINESS BUILDERS: WORKING HARD OR MAKING MONEY?
Hosted By Alex Cadieux | Techo-Bloc
You put in the hours. But where did your last job make money? And where did it slip away? Most owners can’t say. This year we dive into the Showcase project. Real costs. Real profit. Then we stack it against the whole market with our first State of the Hardscape Industry report. Where do you actually stand? We’ll show you. Presented in partnership with Granum.
You'll take away:
- See which design choices and upgrades put the most money in your pocket
- Learn what other contractors charge, and what’s left when the job’s done
- Find out if you’re ahead of the pack or behind it
- Stop guessing how you’re doing. You’ll know… and what to do about it

Who should attend?
Anyone who isn’t sure they’re getting ahead.
