BuildPerks Testimonials Maximize Your Marketing Budget

BuildPerks marketing incentive model is proven to increase profits — Don’t take our word for it. Below are testimonials from a few of our Sponsors and Members.

Sponsor Testimonials “The uniqueness of BuildPerks strengthens the tie with all of our customers regardless of volume. While any company can reward their customers with incentives, PerkPoints are awarded by a variety of compatible suppliers throughout the industry. Thus giving our customers not only a critical mass of PerkPoints, but a strong loyalty to all of their suppliers. BuildPerks is an affordable, valuable program that produces significant results!” – Nick Campbell President GBS Building Supply 864-423-3379

“We understand that builders have a choice in terms of the suppliers & service providers with whom they do business. With that in mind, we joined BuildPerks to thank our customers for their business and loyalty. Not only does BuildPerks provide us with the opportunity to reward our current customers, it also gives us a competitive edge in acquiring new business. BuildPerks is a powerful sales tool." – Steve Hooker Regional Vice President 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty 813-539-0707

“Samson Stone uses BuildPerks to say “Thank You” to our customers for their business and to reward them for their on-time payments. With a company our size, it would be difficult and expensive to get the benefits that BuildPerks affords us. It’s easy to administer and our customers love earning their PerkPoints every month.” – Silas Lewis Owner/President Samson Stone 864-325-2022

Builder Testimonials “What a great idea! Purchase materials and services from quality suppliers and trade contractors, pay on a timely basis and get rewarded for it! We will definitely consider BuildPerks as a factor when selecting suppliers and trade contractors in the future.” – Sean D. Sullivan Living Stone Design+Build, Asheville, NC

“As a past sponsor for many years, I’ve seen the benefits of the program from the supplier side. Now as a builder I’m looking forward to working with the BuildPerks suppliers and sub-contractors in North and South Carolina. I’ve found the BuildPerks program to be the best resource for discovering quality suppliers and sub-trades in the industry. I’m looking forward to forming long term relationships with BuildPerks suppliers and trade partners!" – Rich Smothers • 3NC •& SC Schumacher Homes,

“I can’t believe how fast my PerkPoints add up just by using BuildPerks vendors. I redeemed my PerkPoints to attend the Grand Destination to Negril & had a blast! I truly value my PerkPoints and the wonderful vendors that are BuildPerks Sponsors. I also look seriously at which vendors provide PerkPoints when I make purchasing decisions.” – Eddie Yandle Executive Construction Homes, Elgin, SC

HBASC President’s Welcome On behalf of the Home Builders Association of South Carolina (HBASC), it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Southern Builders Network (SBN). A comprehensive educational and networking conference, The SBN is designed to connect home building professionals with leading suppliers, service providers and national brands. Over the next two days, we will work hard and have a little fun. Free from distractions, in a relaxing environment, you will learn and accomplish more than you could in a month at your office. I’d like to point out a few conference highlights: On Sunday evening, the SBN opens with a Welcome Reception/Dinner providing our guests with an opportunity to get acquainted in a casual atmosphere prior to the Builder/Vendor meetings. On Monday morning, we will kick-off a full day of Builder/Vendor meetings with a Keynote Address, “The Crystal Ball: Where the Housing Market Goes From Here” presented by Mark Nix, Executive Director of the Home Builders Association of South Carolina. You will not want to miss this dynamic presentation! The Builder/Vendor meetings offer the ideal platform for Builders and Vendors to establish relationships, engage in meaningful dialog and explore products and services. Builder/ Vendor meetings will be held at the Vendor’s table, and Builders will rotate according to their customized meeting schedule. Each meeting is approximately 15 minutes in duration with a couple of minutes between meetings for rotation. Networking is also an important component of the Southern Builders Network. During meals, breaks and receptions, the SBN affords our attendees the ultimate venue to establish new connections, build upon existing relationships and exchange ideas. By popular request, we have designated Monday evening as a free evening and we have expanded the hours of the Hospitality Suite. I would like to recognize our industry partners. Our Platinum Network Sponsor, Builder Partnerships. Builder Partnerships has been our Platinum Network Sponsor since the inception of the SBN and we appreciate their continued participation.

Keynote Address Monday, November 9 8:30am - 9:30am THE CRYSTAL BALL:

Where the Housing Market Goes From Here Where is housing headed in S.C., and what will it take to get there? Mark Nix, Executive Director of the Home Builders Association of South Carolina, opens the Southern Builders Network with a candid look into the crystal ball at the housing market over the next two years and the forces that will shape it. Mark will lay out the biggest impediments facing builders and purchasing managers today: regulatory costs, impact fees and infrastructure bottlenecks, labor shortages, material pricing and the cost of capital. More importantly, he will focus on the solutions that the HBA is presenting, from permitting reform, planning and workforce programs to policy wins at the state and local level.

MARK NIX Executive Director

Home Builders Association of SC

He will also review the results of the November election and what the new political landscape means for housing in Washington, in state capitals and in local council chambers across the South. Attendees will leave with a clear picture of what is coming and practical ideas for how to plan for it.

MARK NIX Mark Nix was born in Columbia, where he resides with his wife and four children (Katie, Garrett, Olivia and Molly). He earned graduate degrees from the University of South Carolina. He was the Producer/Director of the TV series FIRING LINE with William F. Buckley, Jr. and directed the 1988 Republican and Democratic Presidential Debates. Mr. Nix was the Executive Director of the S.C. Landowners Assoc. and has served as the Executive Director of the Home Builders Association of S.C. since 2007.

Harold Moore Builders Representative

PROFILE My parents founded Harold Moore Builder, Inc. in 1971, pairing my father’s on-site construction experience with my mother’s background in insurance and accounting. Over the years, the company built custom homes, medical and business offices, office up-fits, and a few “odd-ball” projects. I joined the business in 1988 after earning a B.S. in Building Science and Management from Clemson University’s College of Architecture. There I learned the craftsmanship and customer relations Harold Moore Builder is known for. My parents retired in the early 2000s and have since passed, but I continue the work they started. Today we focus on residential and commercial renovations, additions, and up-fits, plus special projects as they arise. My commitment is to deliver the same quality, value, and customer service this company was built on.

Stanley Martin PROFILE Martin Alloy and Stanley Halle created Stanley Martin in 1966 in the Maryland suburbs outside of Washington, D.C. New homes in the 1960s were often small ramblers without a garage. Early on, Stanley Martin began innovating with fresh new designs which made multi-level and two-story homes affordable. Fairly quickly, we expanded our single-family homes to include various sizes and types of townhomes as well. In 2017, Stanley Martin joined the Daiwa House Group. Daiwa House is one of the largest real estate and development companies in the world and provides synergies and capital access that supports Stanley Martin’s national expansion strategy. In 2018, Stanley Martin opened in two new cities: Charleston, SC and Atlanta, Ga. The company continues to grow and in February 2020 we expanded our operations into additional metro areas in North Carolina and South Carolina, including Columbia, SC and Charlotte, NC. In September 2021 Stanley Martin entered Florida offering homes in Tampa and Orlando. We are proud of our 50+ years of success which is driven by homebuyers who every day have the confidence to choose Stanley Martin to fulfill their new home dreams. In May 2021 the company was named National “Builder of the Year” by Builder Magazine. This prestigious award celebrates the growth and success Stanley Martin has experienced!
