On this episode of Rock Stars of Remodeling, host Drew Barto explores what contractors should be looking for in product partners. After all, the long-term viability of your business is only as good as the service you provide and the products you install.
Drew invited Randy Albaugh onto the show to share his nearly 30 years of invaluable insight on this topic. Randy is ProVia’s Director of Sales, Northeast, specifically in the window and door division.
Randy reveals the most significant pain points contractors face when dealing with manufacturers and shares the attributes contractors should be looking for in product partners to ensure smooth and successful relationships for years to follow.
