Overview
The Business Builder Council of the Collier Building Industry Association was formed specifically to meet the needs of specialty contractors and material suppliers.  They are dedicated to TVS (Trades, Vendors and Suppliers). Their mission is to be a dynamic Council of strong leaders delivering education, recognition and profitable opportunities resulting in a WOW experience!!  "It's all about building your business"

Meeting on a monthly basis, they organize three annual trade shows and plan evening meetings relevant to the trade. 

The CBIA Business Builder Council organizes several annual events:

Reverse Table Top - 2 Events, 1 in Spring and 1 in Fall
The Business Builder Council wanted to hold an event that would be beneficial to all of the subcontractors and builders and remodelors as well. This event is held at the Elks Lodge where builders and remodelors host a booth for four hours and have their buying managers and purchasing agents there to meet and greet subcontractors. Tradesmen and associates either bid on jobs there or submit portfolios and brochures to their office for future reference. This is a salesperson’s dream night.
