Years ago, when we first started coming to the Builder EXPO, we really wanted to cultivate new builder accounts and hopefully sell product. It’s been about 10 years now and what we’ve learned is not to expect or push the builder relationship to happen; it happens over time. Time meaning, “time in.” We have been at the GHBA Expo year after year, and every time the builders and remodelers come through, they see us and our booth. It’s time in that gave us the credibility… Read more “Credibility to establish new builder relationships”

I have just started attending GHBA events and I am looking forward to getting more involved.

There is not enough space to write down all of the ways that GHBA has been a benefit to myself and Eyesite Surveillance Inc. We have been members for nearly two years, and have been given opportunities that would not have existed without our involvement with the association. This association allows us to network with the decision makers for the company they represent. This association also allows us to give back to the industry that we are so passionate about through multiple events hosted by… Read more “Reach decision makers”

The GHBA has been a great resource for more than just our marketing department. They have provided us with the opportunity to easily get to know a great network of people that represent some of the best businesses in our area.

We recognize the invaluable service GHBA provides to all members in the way of education and advocacy, as well as the opportunity to build lifelong relationships. We only wish we had joined sooner, and strongly recommend that any company serious about the homebuilding industry do so as soon as possible.

GHBA has been instrumental in solidifying quality, long last business relationships. Great foundations have been acquired through the exceptional events and opportunities provided by the long standing GHBA!

The CBC Speed Selling event at Bowlmor Lanes was great! I think everyone there had a great time. Combining bowling and talking about business made it more casual and laid back. It created an opportunity for both builders and subcontractors/suppliers to get in touch with each other, that otherwise may not have had the chance.

Being a member of the GHBA and becoming a part of the leadership ladder for the Associate Council has opened many doors for my career. It has given me the opportunity to network with other colleagues in the building industry, in which some have become personal friends. By being active in some of the various events, such as the BBQ Cook-off, Chili Cook-off and golf tournaments, I have increased my exposure to key people in the homebuilding industry who I might never have worked with… Read more “”

The GHBA Builder Expo was a home run for Goodman. We met many new builders and scheduled appointments with them. Our first appointment led to a sale of 160 ductless split HVAC systems! We will definitely participate in the GHBA Builder Expo next year.

The GHBA and RMC are great organizations that do a lot to help our city. I am proud to be a member and we will continue to work together in the future. I never imagined my company would have made this far (21 Years). Thanks to the GHBA and RMC, we are looking forward to 21 more.

I have learned a lot from most of the classes and enjoyed meeting the good people from the building community!

Our involvement with the association has been very rewarding and beneficial. Not only do we have the opportunity to network with builder representatives and decision makers, but there are multiple opportunities to attend luncheons and other functions to hear experts talk about every aspect of the industry. We also have the opportunity to participate in volunteer organizations such as HomeAid, Habitat for Humanity, Hope Beyond Bridges, Toys for Tots, and our favorite, the Frank Aranza “Adopt-a-Family” Project. The look on the children’s and parents’ faces… Read more “Highly recommended”

Just two months after starting at Tri-Tech, I decided it would be a good idea for our company to participate in the annual GHBA BBQ and Wild Game Cook-Off. Little did I know what I was getting into, nor where it would take our company as well as my professional and personal relationships! Luckily, I attended an Associate Council Luncheon a month before the cook-off and was immediately taken under the wing of a fellow associate who was on the leadership ladder at the time.… Read more “”

Don’t underestimate the power of a GHBA industry mixer or event! Attending events like the BBQ Cookoff and the Golf Tournament has made way for dozens of face-to-face introductions and conversations, opening doors to long-term relationships with builders such as Lennar, Highland Homes, DR Horton and many more.

GHBA is a very valuable asset to our Industry. You can get as much value out of it as you like. The more active you are as a member the more successful you will be at your job and your company. I have personally witnessed and experienced this in the last 30+ years!

You guys did a phenomenal job on the EXPO! We landed a lot a of leads, met some key management of production builders, and made some new friends that will offer great networking opportunities. On behalf of Cast Fireplaces, we feel very privileged to be part of such an amazing organization. See you again at next year’s EXPO!

The events for associates to sponsor are great. We have met several new customers and prospects from our first event. Thank you very much to the builder community for taking the time to come to the events to get to know us.

Great BBQ event. We had a great time!

The GHBA is an important part of my career in the new home building industry. I have met so many wonderful professionals and have enjoyed forming some amazing friendships over the last 12 years of being a member. Serving on the SMC board has been very rewarding and it is an honor to give back to my industry as a passionate volunteer. Happy 75th anniversary to my second family at the GHBA and may you have many more!

I can say the CBC Speed Selling event is the most effective activity GHBA has created to make the best use of all participants’ time and to enjoy the process. I was introduced to subs and suppliers I did not know existed, found out information to help my clients, and started the development of important relationships that will make my service to my clients better and in a very short time. It would have taken weeks if not months to set up those meetings and… Read more “”

This is only my first month as Business Operations Manager with Array Investment Group and had a great time at EXPO! I am new to the construction industry and really enjoyed the one-hour session that I attended.

I’ve been a member of GHBA for many years and attribute much of my success to the great builders and vendors that I’ve worked with over the years. Thanks GHBA!

I have absolutely received business due to events at the GHBA that include golf tournaments, their famous annual BBQ Cookoff, the Chili Cookoff and many others. GHBA has played a huge role in allowing me to get in front of the decision makers, which is the biggest key to creating a business relationship with our clients. I am thankful to GHBA for providing that opportunity.

Great people in the association, combined with consistent networking, equals great opportunities!!!

Being a part of this association the past 4 years has brought me so much more than I ever imagined. Strong, successful, caring, dedicated, professional… there are many adjectives that describe the people that make up the Greater Houston Builders Association.

The GHBA is a wonderful organization and I’m proud to be a member. There are so many ways to be involved both on a professional and personal level. Numerous volunteer activities gives everyone the opportunity to give back to the community in which they earn their living.

The GHBA goes beyond an association, it’s an extended family of fellow colleagues in the same industry helping one another achieve their business goals. Rock Materials has been a member and supporter of the GHBA for many years. We’ve had the honor of hosting their annual BBQ Cookoff for the past 3 years and can truly say that from our involvement with this event and others throughout the year, we’ve generated a number of long-term business relationships with new customers that may otherwise have never… Read more “”
