Episode 17 - Using Tech To Keep Photos Organized
In this episode, Alena Wilson interviews Nick Brouillette from CompanyCam to talk all about how valuable photos of the job can be.  They also discuss how automation of the photo documentation process cuts  hours and hours of contractor's time spent out in the field down to just a few minutes. There's a TON of time wasted in our industry getting the right photos, driving back and forth to jobs to get missed photos, labeling and organizing photos just to misplace them in an email or text thread, when you could just have all of your files on the cloud in one easy to access place.
