The Impact of Using RENDR to Speed Up Sales and Save Money

In 2023, VLB implemented RENDR, the leading Sales Acceleration platform for the residential remodeling industry to improve their processes and reduce cost of all their projects.

Using RENDR improves their on-site customer interaction, measures far more quickly and accurately, turns drawing around faster and saves them $1,000+ per project

VL Builders

VL Builders was founded 6 years ago by Victor Lebegue. Based in Lakewood, Colorado, VLB provides everything from Kitchen and Bath remodels to full house renovations. Victor and VLB began using RENDR during its 2023 Beta period. They enjoy the simplicity of using a product that was obviously purpose built for contractors by a contractor.

“You have to do this job, as a contractor, to really understand what we need. AJ (RENDR’s CEO) has been doing the job at a high level for years and his remodeling company has achieved what many of us aspire to get to”

Key Challenges

VLB did not use any measuring or sales acceleration software prior to RENDR. They were drawn to try RENDR after seeing how easy it is to use and how it was obviously designed by someone who has done the job. VLB prides itself on being a professional organization with the best people using the best tools. Victor wants to expand VLB and is always on the lookout for tools to help.

VLB joined the RENDR Beta program to test, and help RENDR refine, the first version of the product. They have never stopped using RENDR since and hope to continue to expand their use of RENDR to help them grow.

Results

VLB was able to save 1.5 hours during the initial consult, 2 hours in creating as-builts and 1.5 hours in producing take offs. This translates into a savings of easily $1,000 per deal of staff time.

Customers are “wowed” by the RENDR real-time scan which helps bolster the customer’s view of VLB as highly professional.

After the initial consult, the RENDR files are automatically made available to the VLB design team who can instantly upload the file into their design software, Chief Architect, saving them hours of time they used to spend drawing the space from scratch

    Time Savings On-site

    Before RENDR

    VLB would spend two to three hours on every site visit spending 60 to 90 minutes taking measurements often of an entire house

    After RENDR

    Measuring now takes a few minutes to provide accurate measurements and provides elevations including windows and doors. The RENDR scans are all they need to produce a preliminary budget.

    Turnaround Time

    Before RENDR

    After taking measurements on paper, they were returned to the office and given to the design team to produce as-built drawings from scratch. A process that can take hours to days depending on the complexity meaning customers might not get to see the drawings for days.

    After RENDR

    Now, a VLB representative can complete a scan in minutes, even for an entire house remodel, allowing the customer to see the drawing built in real time. Then they can instantly send the RENDR files to their design team. Once received, with a few button clicks, an as-built drawing is created within their design software, Chief Architect, ready for the designers. Additionally, the unique elevations provided by RENDR allow VLB, when doing whole house projects, to make decisions like can I fit cabinets under that window.

    This saves them 2+ hours on every project.

    Creating Take Offs

    After RENDR

    Using the RENDR elevations and provided measurements, VLB can produce take-offs one and half hours faster. VLB believes the take-off features coming soon from RENDR will be a game changer for them and others.

Conclusion

The implementation of RENDR at VL Builders has been a huge success, saving time and money on every project and enhancing their already stellar reputation for professionalism.
