Bre0650#1 in business of buildingFor topics on the business of design and building, this podcast is #1. I manage a company in the design/build industry and our team has worked with Brad’s. I’ve found a ton of value in Brad’s episodes on company culture, social media, marketing, and the general running of a business. I love the focus on team excellence, positivity, and constant improvement. Every episode has useful and entertaining information and it’s fun to see people I know in our industry featured as guests! Thanks for all you share and keep at it!

Stick2682003A show that inspires and drives valueI’ve had the privilege of not only being a dedicated listener to Brad’s podcast over the past year but also experiencing firsthand what it’s like to sit on the other side of the microphone as his guest. Brad brings the same level of preparation, thoughtfulness, and commitment to his podcast as he does to his business. He embodies the spirit of a true entrepreneur—constantly learning, endlessly curious, and driven to bring out the best in every guest. I can assure you, each episode is a masterclass in growth, delivered by someone who leads with purpose. If you’re looking for real value and insight, look no further.

Tom @ Lost Creek ConstructionBest content for professionals in the construction and design industryAbsolutely the best content I have found for any business owner, but especially those in the construction and design professions.

I look forward to listening and implementing new ideas with each episode! Keep the incredible content coming, Brad!!

Profit FirstSmall Steps in a consistent direction lead to Amazing Results!It takes a lot drive, systems and passion to make a podcast happen Weekly. But the reward is worth the work! I Love how this podcast helps elevate the industry and elevate construction to a higher level which not only makes the client experience better but also makes the experience better for the Contractor or Technician. The more you listen the more you benefit! Thanks to Brad and all of his guests who are Inspiring the Celebration of Craft

Get this app! :) :)A Game ChangerThis podcast has been an absolute game changer! I’m always seeking to learn from those around me and this podcast is packed with a wealth of knowledge and insights from each of the guests on the show. There have been several things I have modified in my own company based on the insights shared on the podcast. Brad is thorough and relatable in his interview style. I’ve had the opportunity to meet Brad and his AFT Construction team and they are incredible people! I would highly recommend this podcast to anyone seeking to expand their knowledge in the construction/design/business sectors.

Vince LongoAFT Podcast - Enlightening, Fun and Business ChangingI am very thankful to not only have found this podcast, but also to have met Brad and discovered that the person he is on his podcast is as genuine as he is in person. I have learned so much from his podcasts and along the way I’ve also laughed a lot. Brad examines innovative process, marketing and business building strategies for small construction businesses and shows how to put these Strategies to work. His humility and willingness to learn from others as well as his big personality makes his podcast fun. I’ve enjoyed learning from Brad and I look forward to many podcast ahead. Vince Longo

Broad Oaks Construction SFLove this podcast!This review is long overdue. I’ve been listening to this podcast since day 1, and I’ve learned so much. I’ve implemented the insights from this show into my construction business and have seen the results. Brad is basically my business coach! I listen while I’m walking my dog in the morning, and I can almost predict when Brad will say “I love that you said that”!
-
Greenside Design BuildInsight into professionalismBrad’s podcast is a window into a multitude of business attributes with construction perspective. I continue to enjoy the wide ranging fields of business from which Brads pulls his guests and their unique perspectives. Direct and fast moving with no lull in the flow of conversation is also a welcome feature of this podcast. Definitely in the top 3 of favorite podcasts.
-
Heso123Insightful and Relevant!AFT Construction Podcast has become one of my favorite podcasts.

-
markbarbercustomhomesHard to believe this content is FREE!!I have learned more about growing my business and building my brand from Brad and his guests in the last year than I learned in the previous 15 years. He is raising the bar of custom home building to a new level, it’s just what our industry needs! I just wish he could do twice as many shows 😂
-
