Top 5 reasons your company needs a Buildertrend Champion

Designating a Buildertrend Champion is vital to the success of your team’s adoption of our tech. Here’s why:

1. To get the most out of your investment

You’re spending time and money to see the benefits of using our software. But if you don’t get buy-in from your team, it can cause unnecessary frustration and lead to lack of adoption.

2. To give your team the opportunity to stand out from their competition

Buildertrend is the leading construction management software in the industry. By letting leads know you’re backed by our tech, you’re proving credibility and building trust – all of which leads to winning more jobs.

3. To expedite daily processes and improve efficiency

When everyone’s on board, the company can operate at a higher level. Leads get converted to jobs, jobs get completed and financials get accounted for – all at a faster rate than they would without technology.

4. To give your team its best chance at reaching company goals

With a more efficient sales process comes more leads being converted into paying clients. With better project planning and estimating workflows comes the opportunity to take on more jobs. With more accurate and transparent financials comes more profit.

5. To drive business growth and enhance scalability

Technology will always be more precise and faster at accomplishing tasks than humans – there’s no denying it. Without software, results will take longer and mistakes can hold back your business.
