NAHB Webinar: Effective Ways to Manage Client Expectations and Experience: Before, During and After the Build
Clear communication can make the difference between a smooth project and a stressful one. In today’s fast-paced residential construction environment, builders and remodelers must manage client expectations from the first conversation through post-project follow-up to reduce misunderstandings, avoid scope creep and strengthen customer relationships.
In this intermediate-level webinar, Andrea Seymour, co-founder and CEO of Springdale Custom Builders, shares practical strategies for improving the client experience before, during and after the build. Drawing from real-world design-build expertise, Andrea explores how to set boundaries early, guide productive conversations, maintain project alignment and create a more transparent process for customers.
Learn how to establish clear expectations, communicate proactively and use tools and systems that help minimize surprises and improve project efficiency. Also discover ways to build trust, increase client satisfaction and protect profitability throughout the construction process.
