9:00 am - 12:00 pm – Paul Cimini - Building Your Hardscaping Business on Quality and Service

Quality can be defined as a measure of excellence that is free from defects and consistently adheres to measurable and verifiable standards that satisfy customer requirements. Service starts with providing all the necessary information to customers to help them make sound decisions and evaluate the contractor’s performance on the job.
· If you don’t explain it to the customer, someone else will
· Information and education are the contractor’s best sales tools
· Quality should be more about how well it’s built than how good it looks
· There are several ways to lessen the cost of a job but now way to build it cheaper

Lunch: 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

1:00 pm - 5:00 pm – Paul Cimini - Hardscaping 2010: Preparing for the Future

The Hardscaping business has changed considerably. Challenging market conditions have put pressure on installation prices and the consumer’s means of finance have all but disappeared. Sound business decisions will help us survive the downturn and live to fight another day. Just as importantly we need to create the next wave of Hardscaping and ride it back to prosperity.
· Eliminating the obvious is a sound first step
· You’ve got to believe in what you do
· Sometimes less is more
· A look ahead: Think Green. Sell Green. Build Green
