GREAT COMMUNICATION

How does effective communication happen, especially during a remodel?


Studies show that, on average, people hear between 20-30K words a day.  That’s an ocean of verbiage to process! Given this environment of information overload, finding the answer is essential if you are to avoid the frustrations of a remodeling project gone bad. 


To be clear, Daniel Builders has been unable to crack the “perfect communication” code.  Instead, we’ve woven communication into our DNA and core values, striving daily to improve as communicators by owning mistakes and identifying ways we can grow.


One person on our team who “gets it” when it comes to communication is Vicki Jordan, our Design Administrator. She is the very first person our clients speak to after submitting a form on our website or calling our main line 864.506.5546.  As you’ll hear, Vicki goes above and beyond when answering questions and overcoming communication barriers.  She is attentive and caring, finding ways to benefit all, even those who don’t fit the Daniel Builders model.    


We also speak to another great communicator, Taylor Lyles, CEO of the HBA of Greenville. Taylor is communicating nonstop with the association’s 1155+ members, including homeowners, builders, trades, and vendors throughout the Upstate of SC.  Despite the enormous membership of the Greenville HBA, Taylor makes himself accessible to address an endless stream of inquiries and has honed his ability to convey a message to a big audience.  He discusses industry communication as a whole and ways the HBA helps homeowners find the right builder for their project.
