Tomorrow on LivLive: Selling Without “Selling” — with Chip Doyle

How do you sell a major remodeling project without becoming the stereotypical salesperson?

Tomorrow I’m joined by Chip Doyle, longtime Sandler sales trainer and co-author of Selling to Homeowners – The Sandler Way.

Chip has spent decades coaching salespeople and business owners — with particularly deep experience in remodeling and other businesses where the decision is personal, emotional, expensive, and often made right at the kitchen table.

We’ll talk about why the best salespeople ask more and talk less, how to uncover what a homeowner actually wants, navigating the uncomfortable money conversation, qualifying opportunities, and why being the expert in the room can sometimes actually get in the way of making the sale.

We’ll also get into the difference between helping someone make a decision and trying to convince them to buy — something I think is especially relevant in design-build.

If you own a remodeling company, sell professional services, or simply want to get better at having conversations about value and money, this should be a good one.

Join us LIVE tomorrow on LivLive.

This kitchen is hiding a LOT.

Pull-outs, drawers tucked inside drawers, and smart storage built behind clean cabinet fronts. Fewer handles, less visual clutter, and a place for pretty much everything.

For Episode 50, I’m taking a look back at the first 49 episodes of LivLive—the people, conversations, ideas, and lessons that have shaped the show so far. From business and leadership to design, construction, entrepreneurship, and everything in between, this special milestone episode highlights some of the biggest takeaways from Season 1 and sets the stage for what’s coming next in Season 2.

Sometimes it’s seeing the finished spaces and realizing…our home could feel like this, too.

More functional. More beautiful. More you.

That possibility? That’s a pretty good reason to start. ✨

Small space. Serious function. 🙌

This scullery is doing a LOT with its square footage. Floor-to-ceiling storage, glass-front cabinetry for the pretty stuff, plenty of counter space, and even a dedicated wine wall. 🍷

It keeps the everyday clutter tucked away while giving the main kitchen room to breathe. Basically, it’s the kitchen’s very organized, slightly overachieving sidekick.

Sometimes the best design decisions aren’t in the original plans. 👀

This prep sink was one of them.

The main sink sits on the opposite side of the kitchen, which created a pretty serious gap in the classic kitchen work triangle, the path between the fridge, sink, and stove.

So, we adapted. By adding a prep sink between the fridge and stove, we created a much more efficient work zone for rinsing produce, filling pots, prepping dinner, and all those little tasks that would otherwise mean trekking across the kitchen 47 times. 😅

Because good kitchen design isn’t just about where things fit. It’s about paying attention to how you’ll actually move through the space.

And sometimes, one little sink solves a surprisingly big problem. 🙌

Systems, Strategy & Scale... Even in Remodeling Businesses

Tomorrow on LivLive, Dave is joined by George Hodges-Fulton of GHF, LLC for a conversation about professionalizing the business of construction.

George has spent his career inside the construction and remodeling industry—leading teams, building divisions, implementing business operating systems, and helping companies grow with more structure, accountability, and intention.

We’ll talk about what changes as a construction company grows, why owners so often become the bottleneck, how stronger systems and leadership teams create scale, and what separates a business that simply stays busy from one that is truly valuable.

We’ll also get into EOS, Pinnacle, strategy, leadership, and what it really takes to build a construction company that can operate beyond the founder.

If you’re a remodeler, builder, contractor, or business owner trying to create a more sophisticated and scalable company, this should be a great conversation.
