The Xactimate Sessions, a new audio/video series from The DYOJO Podcast

7/17/2021

If your goal is to work on property insurance claims you will need to familiarize yourself with an estimating platform called Xactimate. The DYOJO Podcast has created The Xactiamte Sessions, a new multi-part audio/video series, to help reduce some of the fear and misconceptions around this estimating data-entry software. Whether you have a company that focuses on:

  • Mitigation -  Responding to emergency services calls for water and fire-related structural damages 
  • Repairs - (aka recon or reconstruction) Restoring homes to resemble their pre-loss conditions
  • Full service - Providing services for both mitigation and reconstruction 

Whatever your area of core service, Xactimate has become the primary tool for creating estimates in the preferred "language" for insurance carriers and their representatives, such as adjusters, third-party administrators (TPAs), claims reviewers, etc. The team that brought you Be Intentional: Estimating, the book which discusses means and methods for developing the right mindset and habits for yourself and your team to succeed with estimating property insurance claims, is now releasing this series, The Xactimate Sessions designed to build upon those foundations to help you thrive.

Who will benefit most from watching the Xactimate sessions on The DYOJO Youtube or listening to the audio version via The DYOJO Podcast on Spotify or Apple? Great question. 

  • New property restoration business owners
  • Contractors pivoting towards insurance claims
  • Managers looking for creative ideas to help lead their teams
  • Growth minded water and damage professionals looking to progress in their careers 

Xactimate is a tool and our goal is to help you shorten your DANG learning curve with this particular tool. We have assembled guests with diverse perspectives and experiences to share the mindset and habits that have aided them in mastering this tool in their daily operations. The DYOJO Nation will benefit from the sage advice they receive from:

  • Greg Power - a project manager/estimator who learned Xactimate rapidly with no prior industry experience. Greg will share some insights on how he approached learning Xacitmate which will be helpful to aspiring estimators and training managers alike. 
  • Chris Tilkov - a former project manager/estimator who used his experience to create Ask Aime, an industry-leading resource for expediting internal estimate reviews.
  • Brian Austin - director of instructional design as Verisk, Xactware Division (the parent company for Xactimate). Brian discusses the broad menu of resources available directly from the creators of the program.
  • Mathew Allen - an independent adjuster and creator of Adjuster TV, who has a passion for elevating the claims experience through helping adjusters and contractors to educate and empower themselves to thrive.
  • Nick Sharp - a former project manager/estimator who is now an instructor at Reets Drying Academy. Nick will dive deeper into some of the elements of estimating specific to mitigation. 
  • Ben Justesen - is both an active full-service restoration company owner, Just Right Cleaning & Construction (JRCC), as well as an Xactimate trainer through his company Enlightened Restoration Solutions (ERS). Listeners may recall Ben from his sponsorship of the program and our trip out to his training facility. Ben shares from his vast experience with mastering the program to write an estimate with "no fluff" that you can defend and be profitable with.
  • Joyce Gabriel - a senior project manager with training responsibilities shares her tips and tricks for helping others to grow as estimators. 

Building from the success and reception for Benchmarks of Growth six-part series which The DYOJO Podcast produced earlier this year, the team will be releasing these multi-part Xactimate Sessions weekly over the next few months. Viewers and listeners will receive a great deal of value from the mindset and habits that have helped our guests as well as some deals from the participating vendors and sponsors of the show. Listeners are encouraged to leave comments and/or questions on any of the social media platforms including Youtube, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram so that the discussion can evolve in relationship to need as the episodes drop. 

The DYOJO Podcast, the official home of The DYOJO Nation as so declared by The Global Watchdog, Pete Consigli, exists to help intentional restorers to shorten their DANG learning curve for personal and professional development.
