Getting Paid to Plan

The pre-construction process that protects your margin, your schedule, and your clients. Taught live by the two people who run it every week at Clark and Aldine.

Tuesday, October 20 at 12:00 PM ET, or Friday, October 30 at 1:00 PM ET.

Same class, two chances to catch it live. For builders, remodelers, and designers.

You're not losing money in the field

Your crews are good. The work is good. The bleed happens earlier, in the decisions you made before the first truck showed up. The bid that was really a guess. The scope that lived in your head. The contract that didn't protect you. None of that is a field problem. It's a pre-construction problem, and in sixty minutes we'll show you how to fix it.

What you'll leave with

  • Why the margin is made before you break ground, and exactly where it leaks
  • How to get paid for pre-construction instead of giving it away to win the job
  • The pre-construction process end to end: discovery, design, estimating, and the client conversation that closes
  • A client experience that keeps people confident and engaged from the first call to the final handoff

Taught by Danielle and Michael

We co-founded Clark and Aldine, a design-build firm in Plymouth, Michigan. We used to price everything for free, work nights on numbers nobody signed, and wonder why a full schedule never felt like a full bank account. Paid pre-construction changed the business, and it changed how we live. Build Together is where we teach what we learned to the builders, designers, and couples building alongside us.

She names the client experience. He names the system. You get both.
