Every year, the **NAHB International Builders’ Show** brings the home building industry together to talk about what’s changing, what’s working, and what’s next.

This year, Audience Town is showing up with a clear focus: helping builders understand today’s buyer, make smarter decisions, and activate insight in ways that actually drive performance.

If you’re heading to IBS 2026, here’s where you’ll find us, what we’re sponsoring, and how to connect while you’re there.

## **Where You’ll Find Audience Town at IBS**

### **Education Session: Ed Carey on AI and the Modern Buyer**

Audience Town CEO Ed Carey will be speaking on how AI is reshaping buyer behavior and what builders should actually pay attention to as technology continues to influence the path to purchase.

Rather than focusing on tools or trends in isolation, the session centers on how builders can use data and intelligence to make better decisions in a more complex buying environment.

### Sales Central Session: How to Maximize Buyer Demand with Kolter Homes

Join us for this Sales Central conversation with **Kolter Homes**, featuring Jaime Godwin, Director of Marketing Communications.

The discussion will focus on how Kolter approaches lead conversion in a slower, more deliberate buying environment. Topics include separating new and returning buyers, improving the handoff between digital and onsite teams, and staying relevant without rushing the buyer journey.

This session is grounded in real experience, not theory, and offers practical takeaways for teams navigating longer consideration cycles.
