A good fit: Finding the right tech tools for your business

By Anna Lockhart.  

When it comes to picking technological tools to better operate your business, it’s important to choose the platform that works not just as a tool, but as a partner for success. 

Operating a metal business during a time where technological advances are occurring at an exponential rate, it should be easy to find a digital tool that makes success easier, right? But with a market overflowing with viable options, selecting the right tool to invest in can be a daunting challenge. In an episode of the MetalCast™ podcast, host Heidi J. Ellsworth sat down with Josh Nowlin, director of sales and marketing for Burrow’s Complete Post-Frame Solutions, for a conversation about selecting a platform that’s not just a useful product to invest in, but a service you can trust and depend on – a partner.  

Burrow’s offers their customers access to a smart tool designed to not just provide 3D design visualization, but an array of tools designed to assist in the process of project planning, cost estimation and design creation. Josh shared, “We’ve chosen to partner with SmartBuild, a very good, innovative company. They offer really nice 3D rendering, which is very easy to learn and produces a good quote for your client.” 

This access to quick, reliable estimates and project details allows post-frame businesses the ability to cut back on costs and the tedious time-consuming process of producing such numbers on their own. Josh added, “With our inventory backing that system, it's real easy that once you do sell the project to get everything dialed in, refresh it and order it and we can pull the order right out of there, ready to enter in our system and go straight to manufacturing.”  

Paired with Burrow’s high-quality materials and superior customer service, utilizing the SmartBuild platform can be a revolutionizing experience for many, making success an all the more attainable possibility.
