Total Value
Founder, TradesTalent Systems · RRHBA Young Professionals Chair
I started in the trades carrying boards at 10 years old. By 22 I had closed 36 real estate deals. I built TradesTalent after watching good contractors lose good jobs because they couldn't find and keep people.
In the last year, we've placed workers with contractors across the Roanoke Valley — generating 175 applicants for one client in 45 days, with a 55–97% retention rate across all placements.
I'm hosting this event because I want to put the system in the hands of every contractor who needs it.

Reserve My Seat — It's Free
May 6, 2026 · Build Smart Institute, Salem VA
Is this really free?
Yes. 100% free. No pitch, no "upgrade to learn more," no credit card. I'm giving away the blueprint because I want more contractors in this valley to win at hiring.
Do I need to bring anything?
Nothing. We're providing breakfast. Just show up ready to take notes — or don't, the toolkit has everything covered.
Can I bring a team member or business partner?
Absolutely — the more the better. Each person needs to register separately so we have accurate seat counts.
What if I can't make it last minute?
There's no recording. Seats are limited to 50 people by design. If you can't make it, please let us know so we can give your seat to someone on the waitlist. Reply to your confirmation email or call (540) 666-1879.
