Jeff Wilson

Jeff M. Wilson is a Wharton-trained economist, Benjamin Franklin Scholar, one of the world's Top 100 business coaches, named America's Rookie Coach of the Year and received  national and international awards for sales and coaching results. In 40+ years he has worked with more than 3,000 businesses across 100+ industries, generating over $3 billion in additional client profit, cash flow, and market value: an average of $1 million per business and a 64% profit increase in the first twelve months. After years of successfully advising S&P 500 companies including Comcast, ING, HCA, and Valero Energy, Jeff now works exclusively with privately owned companies in the construction industry.

He works hands-on with K&B designers, remodelers, builders, and distributors finding the hidden profit leaks that quietly cost owners $50,000 to $500,000 a year; building sales and operations systems that run without them. The results are concrete: a home-based design firm went from years of losses to a $1 million buyout, a K&B remodeler doubled profits while cutting work hours in half in 14 months, a national electrical contractor whose pipeline grew 675% in 9 months, a multi-state architectural firm that hit record earnings after losing 4 senior leaders, and an $8 million supplier landed a $50 million payday. Through his ContractorOS system, owners routinely reclaim 10 to 20 hours a week.

A repeat speaker at the KBIS & IBS, Jeff presented at KBIS 2026 in the VFTI Technology track at the Advanced level, scoring 4.3 out of 5, and at IBS 2026 he co-presented "Eight AI Tools for a Three to Five Point Margin Gain" to an audience of 130-plus, scoring 4.74 out of 5. His perspective is the practitioner's, not the pundit's. He does not demo AI from a slide. He builds it in the rooms where K&B owners make their most expensive decisions, then measures what it returns.

Working with industry legend and NAHB all-time SPIKE (Membership) leader, S. Robert August, Jeff has built the most advanced Digital Sales Associate in the construction industry today.  His Nails & Networks podcast with David Bernardino helps all construction businesses to become AI-native: designing more, chasing less, and turn their craft into a profitable, sellable company. He serves as NAHB Global Opportunities Network Membership Chairman. His sessions are built for the people who make AI work on Monday morning. Specific tools, real numbers, and a straight account of what works and what does not.
