Estes Builders Attends 2010 International Builders Show
Rick Gross, Mike Lyckman, Kevin Estes, and Patricia Troxler of Estes Builders recently traveled to Las Vegas, NV to attend the 66th Annual International Builder Show (IBS), the housing industry’s largest annual trade show and exhibition. With more than 175 education sessions during the show, and a host of preshow courses all taught by industry experts, this educational retreat is an annual part of Estes Builders’ training and education initiative. “Even though we are about to celebrate our 20th year of homebuilding, we always want to learn,” said Company founder Kevin Estes. “IBS allows us to span the fields of business strategy, sales and marketing, product design, construction and operations all in one forum. We bring back industry best practices and put them to work to improve our business.”
