EP 159: Why Builders FAIL at Marketing (And How to Fix It)

from The ToolShed Podcast · host Mick Hawes

Most builders don't fail because they're bad at marketing — they fail because the construction industry has changed, and the old way of showing up no longer works. In this episode, Mick Hawes sits down with Jordan Skinner, one of Australia's leading voices in construction branding, to unpack why builders struggle with visibility, trust, and attracting the right clients… and what to do differently in 2025. With a decade in his family's civil contracting business and years helping builders build trusted personal brands, Jordan explains exactly how builders can stand out, communicate better, and win work without competing on price.
