Most contractors know the feeling: you pay for leads that five other companies get, you chase calls late at night, and your tech stack keeps growing — but your margins don’t. In this episode, we sit down with Brett Taylor (Founder) and Louis Vierra (Co-Founder) of The Builder Market to discuss how they are disrupting traditional lead generation. They have built an AI-first platform designed by tradespeople, for tradespeople, to solve the problems caused by legacy aggregators.
