Phoenix Marketing Group is Bringing Technology Further Upstream in Design Discussions

In this episode of the Connected Design Podcast, we sit down with Bret Jacob, senior business development manager at Phoenix Marketing Group, to discuss how the company is helping bridge the gap between integrators and the design-build community. Bret shares his path through retail audio, military service, integration, manufacturing, and now business development at Phoenix, where he leads Phoenix Design Build Services.The conversation explores why integrators need to be brought into projects earlier, how builders and designers can better understand technology’s role in luxury homes, and the tools Phoenix is building to support those relationships, from co-branded marketing assets to project spotlights and design-center resources. Bret also discusses his work reviving the NAHB Custom Builder Technology Working Group and why educating builders on the right technology questions is essential to moving the industry forward.
