Zach, Beth, and the entire Venveo team are Fabulous Resources

I’ve listened to Zach & Beth over the past year and enjoyed their Smarter Building Materials podcast so much I became a Venveo client. The value and clear guidance their entire team brings is valuable for anyone in the building materials or distribution business space. Keep up the great work!

Great resource for building material manufacturers

I’ve been listening to Zack and Beth for a while now and love their content. They have definitely helped me understand some best practices and tactics I can employ. Like a lot of others in this industry, my company does not have a dedicated marketing department. We all end up wearing a lot of hats, so having a resource like this is great to have.

The podcast covers a wide variety of topics, but has leaned a little Residential heavy recently. That being said, anyone in the industry (sales or marketing) could benefit. Definitely worth a listen.
