  <title>The REAL Impact of Social Media in Commercial Construction</title>
  <description>Does social media really work in commercial construction?&amp;amp;nbsp; Many construction companies still believe marketing is only about getting new projects—but the reality is, digital strategy plays a much bigger role. From attracting skilled workers to strengthening industry influence, construction companies that ignore social media risk falling behind. In this episode of Blueprints &amp;amp;amp; Banter, Steve Cona (President &amp;amp;amp; CEO, ABC Florida Gulf Coast) sits down with Oliver Corizzi (Principal, Avenue Media) to break down the real impact of marketing in construction.

Key episode takeaways: - Recruitment is marketing. The companies that showcase their projects and culture attract the best talent. - Networking extends beyond events.
