Instagram

We as a company are trying hard to distinguish our self from all the other building companies out there in the market...after getting feedback from our clients, we came to the conclusion that the best way to do that is to improve communication and collaboration.  Undoubtedly, you saw in our post a couple months ago that we started with a new software program that has been a HUGE success....our Guinea pig clients are loving it!
Another way we have been trying to improve is to get ourselves (and our work) out there! As a result you might start to see Hickory Homes pop up on a number of social media platforms.  We are on INSTAGRAM as @hickoryhomes (so go look for and follow us there!).

We are also partnering up with HOUZZ in the new year and will be "popping" up on the site...we have had a Houzz account for many years and you can find us there under Hickory Homes Ltd.  Houzz is a great tool we use with clients to communicate ideas and get different and unique style ideas for our custom homes.  If you haven't been on Houzz before, you should definitely get over there right away!

New Technology, New Frontiers!

Check this out!



It's a screen shot of my IPhone.....Do you see it??? At the middle left hand side of the screen... Its a Hickory Homes App!!! WHAT???

We are so excited to be trying out a new online builder software that will allow us to have a better grasp on all our jobsites, schedules and better avenue to communicate with clients (especially out of town clients).

If it all works out as planned,  our clients will be given a login and password which will give them access to their own personal jobsite website! AND (if they choose) will be able to download the Hickory Homes app to their smartphone!! SO COOL!

We are on a trial basis with 2 of our clients...hopefully up and running with ALL future clients mid-autumn!

Also....HAVE YOU SEEN OUR NEW WEBSITE!!!!!!! Get over there now! (OOPS its not quite up yes as of Tuesday at 4:43! Hopefully tomorrow...you know what, just keep checking it until its up!)

I think you can tell by all the caps that we are EXCITED.
