Show Notes

2025 is almost over — and in building materials and construction, the 4th quarter is the 2-minute warning.

In this episode of The Platinum Business Break, Dan Owens (aka The Fixer) breaks down:

✅ Where the industry scoreboard really stands (housing starts down 11% YoY, permits down 11%, spending down 2.2% YTD)
✅ The impact of tariffs, rising input costs, and possible interest rate cuts
✅ What companies can do in Q4 to close strong (pipeline audits, smart discounts, CRM adoption, sales training)
✅ Why 2026 could be your best year yet — if you start preparing now

Housing starts down.
Material costs up.
️ The question is — will you wait, or will you move?

Do not let 2026 sneak up on you. The time to set the stage is right now.
