Hat of the Week: MAV Design Build

This week’s Hat of the Week goes to MAV Design Build in Brighton, Michigan, led by Tye Dingman and Jared Keeney.

I had the chance to meet Tye and Jared at the RISE Conference last year, and it’s been fun watching what they’re building. They’re focused on quality craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and taking great care of their clients.

They continue to invest in their team, their processes, and their growth, and it shows.

Keep up the great work.

Someone just bought 3 tickets to the Rise Conference.

I was surprised because they'd already purchased tickets for two owners to attend, then I saw on the registration form, they wrote:

"We originally bought two tickets, and saw the value of the RISE Conference, so we decided to bring the rest of the team so everyone could benefit from the training, the networking, and the fresh ideas that will help strengthen our program."

If you're not already coming to the Rise Conference, COME!

It is going to be an excellent time to get inspired with fresh ideas, connect with other remodelers, and strengthen your business.

If you are already coming to Rise, is there anyone on your team who would benefit from joining you?

Early Bird Discount ends Monday at 5:00PM!

Your clients have high expectations and they're not just based on other remodeling companies. They're based on every premium experience they've ever had. The remodelers who figure that out are the ones who win.

High end remodeling and high end landscaping have more in common than most people realize.

Kyle sits down with Jeffrey Scott of Jeffrey Scott Consulting to unpack the similarities between successful design-build remodelers and top landscape companies. They talk about emotionally invested clients, protecting margins, managing high expectations, building trust, handling handoffs between sales and production, and why scaling an “artisanal” business is harder than most owners expect.

There are a lot of practical takeaways in this one for remodelers looking to improve client experience, tighten systems, and grow without losing quality!

The Rise Conference is August 11th-12th in Ann Arbor, MI and we'd love to have you in the room!

One of the main benefits of Rise is that, yes, the sessions are great, but some of the most valuable moments happen in between them.

It’s not content you can consume online.

It's the conversation at lunch with a remodeler who just solved the exact problem you're dealing with.

It's the idea you leave with that you never would have thought of on your own.

It's being in a room full of people who get it.

That's what we're building this August, and we want you to be part of it!

Early bird pricing ends Monday, June 1st at 5:00PM EST.

Clear roles create better projects. It's a simple idea, but for most remodelers, it's hard to execute.

Kyle sits down with Mark Gill of On The Mark Advisory to talk about why so many remodeling companies stay stuck in owner-centric chaos and what it takes to build a team that doesn’t rely on the owner to solve every problem. They dig into accountability, cleaner handoffs between sales and production, and how stronger systems help eliminate fires before they start.
