The Monday after Christmas Day this year is one of those special times that I will remember for years to come. Not only is it my first day officially “back at my desk” 3 weeks after having open-heart surgery, but I am also not taking anything for granted in our industry.
In the short span of 13 years, construction has gone from one of the worst housing recessions ever to unlimited potential. Offsite and Modular construction, not only in the US but around the world is changing almost every single day and I want to be part of it more than ever.
With the launch of iMedia Group, I am now the Editor-in-Chief of three publications that will be kicking off 2022 with expanded news, views and reviews. While many other publications in the offsite and modular concentrate on big picture news and reports, iMedia will be the source where builders, developers and factory management go to learn what is actually happening in the streets, where real decisions about your business are made.
Need elaborate graphs and charts to show your shareholders why things are not going your way, visit the other guys.
If you need real boots on the ground answers from people that actually are doing business and struggling to find answers to even the most simple questions, you need to begin using Modular Home Source and the soon-to-be-published Offsite Builder website and print magazine.
With Ken Semler, one of the most well known modular industry people as Publisher of iMediaGroup, Charlie Wardell as Managing Editor of Offsite Builder and Rob Ebbets as Director of Sales and Marketing along with Kelly Berecin as Art Director, and me as your Editor-in-Chief, this team along my support staff can help you get your message out to those ‘boots on the ground’ people that are looking for new products, materials, software and packaging.
We can write articles specifically about your company, promote your new ideas and even help you find offsite construction companies looking for talent. And we can do it through both Modular Home Source and Offsite Builder.
The February issue of Offsite Builder print magazine is just about to go to press but with 12 issues a year and we want to help you advertise and market your product to the people that actually use them.
Over the next few months, look for announcements about limited video conferences designed for the small to medium home builder and developer. There will also be live regional events and Modcoach’s Builder Boot Camps will be back. COVID-19 can’t keep good people away from getting together.
So take a couple of minutes right now and subscribe to the twice-weekly Modular Home Source newsletter, get the Modular Home Source Media Kit.
Then jump over and subscribe to the Offsite Builder print magazine and get the Offsite Builder Media Kit.
And finally, I want to thank every single one of you for the prayers and well wishes I received over the past 3 weeks. Your thoughts inspired me to get off my butt and begin writing again.
Thank you so much.
