Victor K • May 14, 2023

In 2017 when Susan Heinz started her commercial contracting business, she noticed that the real ingredients of success are improving productivity and making business connections. She co-founded Heinz Group with her husband, a Florida-based company, and tells with excitement that her NAHB membership allowed her to gain credibility in the market with networking opportunities. All of these were surplus to the access she had to certain business management tools.

 

Moreover, she got hands-on management software that allowed her to run her business operations with finesse and connect with other professionals in the same field without any hassle. She benefited from a score of advantages that the NAHB Member Savings Program offers, allowing her to see instant results in the Houzz Pro account function.

 

The tools with the Houzz Pro account have a wide variety of advantages, including an estimate calculator, which allows faster quote generation and further sharing with a prospective client. The same quotes are associated with timelines that the client can see before, during, or after the completion of the project. The timelines can be approved or reviewed before the particular task is started.

 

Many software available now are not user-friendly and doesn't allow the client a sneak peek into the work in the future. The Project Collaboration tool in the Houzz Pro Account allows a view of the project properties and is sharable simultaneously.

 

Successful Client Acquisition

Lindsay Floyd, who runs Kimber Homes, relates to the communication speed required for a business to thrive in California and Oklahoma. Houzz Pro allows fast communication and covers client satisfaction by providing updates on the project and helping envision the design options.

 

Many clients never go through with a remodeling process because they cannot envision the result, which may not be better than the current design. However, the 3D Planner, a special Houzz Pro function, can erase such uncertainties. It provides both 2D and 3D views with placements of counters, cabinets, almirahs, lighting, and many more items. It is better to see the 3D results before any kind of money is spent.

 

Floyd has used many different software in the past, but Houzz Pro has passed all expectations as it is easier for both company and clients. Interior designers can also use tools such as Houzz Pro Mood Boards to showcase how purchases will appear in clients' homes. This simplifies the decision-making process for clients, ultimately making it easier for them to approve. 

 

All contractors that have used Houzz Pro are unanimous that it is the best software they have used to date. They say it saves time for all parties involved and leads to more sales. NAHB members also receive up to 30% off Houzz Pro.

 

However, suppose you are looking for a commercial subcontractor to use the software for you and keep you updated with all the project timelines and expectations. In that case, TOV Restoration is the one for you!
