The Stone Industry Education series – organized by Stone World and the Natural Stone Institute – wound down for 2023 with its final event hosted by Triton Stone Group at its new facility in Austin, TX. The all-day seminar drew nearly 40 fabricators who arrived eager to learn and discuss business best practices to make for a more efficient and profitable shop.
“I don’t have all of the answers, but I have the answers that work for my business,” said Blake Christensen, co-founder of Valley View Granite in Tremonton, UT, who presented the session. Christensen explained to his audience that he grew his business by learning from experiences and improving upon them. He now has a loyal team that runs multiple locations. “Others have different answers that work for them.”
