OUR STORY
Cognitive Contractor was created to facilitate the growth and success of contractors in the modern era of sales and marketing. Our founder, Josey Parks, is a technology evangelist, self-made entrepreneur, and leader in the home services industry. While researching solutions for his own companies, Josey noticed a critical information gap in the contractor industry. Because many companies in roofing, construction, home improvement, etc. still follow old-school sales and marketing methods like door knocking, direct mailers, and cold calling, they have often been overlooked by technology companies that focus on more tech-savvy industries for opportunities. However, the fact that these methods are manual and take up so much time means that the potential value of software tools that aid in this process is immense. The positive impact is not just realized in company financial statements, but also on the lives of individual salespeople who often spend a long time on the road away from home, often pursuing leads that never pan out.
Determined to help the contractor industry become more robust in the modern age, and to prevent wasted time, money, and resources, as well as limit burn-out and churn of salespeople due to repeated frustration, Josey worked with Chief Analyst, Charles Huett, to develop a solution tailored to the industry's unique needs. They combined the strength of data modeling, analysis, machine learning, and GIS technology to create a tool that is intelligent, customizable, and ideally suited to the needs of contractors. Now, contractors aiming for long-term success have the tools they need to thrive immediately, as well as continue strengthening over time, by reaching the right leads at the right time and accomplishing their stated sales goals.

He was featured on CNBC's Blue Collar Millionnaires, Good Morning Texas, in Roofing Contractor Magazine, with "This Old House" at KBIS alongside HomeAdvisor and Mike Rowe, and as a speaker at events and for various media nationwide. Josey was recently awarded the Young Movers and Shakers Award at METALCON and heads a conglomerate of industry leaders focusing on future workforce solutions within the Roofing Technology Think Tank (RT3)
