On this episode of Construction Champions Podcast Andrew Brown and Ron Nussbaum talk about the opportunities that are in the construction industry right now. Whether you’re in school or working in the industry right now, the next 5 years can completely change your life if you get around the right people.   Andrew’s Bio Andrew Brown is on a mission to tackle that and similar misconceptions head-on. In 2002, Brown co-founded Toolfetch.com, an eCommerce-based industrial distributor that caters to skilled trades. On LinkedIn, Brown is arguably the distribution sector’s biggest champion for the skilled trades on the strength of the short videos he frequently posts on there.   As for the inspiration behind Toolfetch and his greater love for the skilled trades, Brown points to Sept. 11, 2001 as a life-changing day for him as then a 23-year-old working on Wall Street in New York City.     Andrew Brown “The planes had just hit the building, and I got this crazy idea to call my friend in Rhode Island, and to go down there (Ground Zero) and try to help,” Brown told me on the MDM Podcast. “I couldn’t just sit there. So I convinced him to come in. A handful of days after, he comes in with a big blue van truck with a big American flag on the back. He’s dressed as a tradesperson. He’s got overalls and a hard hat for me. We find ourselves racing down the West Side Highway going from checkpoint to checkpoint. We park the van and, all of a sudden, we’re standing where World Trade Center where once stood. The entire day, I was helping emergency workers and tradespeople find survivors. I was watching the tradespeople on-site — who had no PPE on — doing whatever it took to find survivors, They were running into unstable structures and helping clear the path for emergency workers to find survivors. And after that experience, I had a life-changing event, not only personally, but professionally.”   Brown explained that he quit his Wall Street job a couple of weeks later and spent the following months trying to find a way to give back to the tradespeople he saw on that day at Ground Zero. So, he and his brother co-founded Toolfetch in 2002 as an online tool and equipment reseller to welders, carpenters, plumbers and other blue-collar trades around the world. Today, the business’ catalog has over one million different products from approximately 650 different vendors.   But beyond providing a resource for tradespeople to procure tools and equipment from, Brown was compelled to be a voice for the industry.   “I see this as my way to connect with them,” he told me. “I’ve been doing it on a consistent basis, speaking to them behind the scenes around the country and listening to all their issues with the skills gap and wages. I just felt like I needed to be a voice for the blue-collar skilled trades. And that’s when I started putting out content and connecting with others out there.”     Andrew’s Links andrew@toolfetch.com https://twitter.com/toolfetch https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-brown-b1736a5?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BXymKam8SSZyk1fayjlcbxw%3D%3D https://www.toolfetch.com/ https://www.youtube.com/user/Toolfetch https://www.facebook.com/toolfetch https://www.instagram.com/toolfetch/   You can find Construction Champions Podcast at www.constructionchampionspodcast.com and everywhere you listen to podcast.
