World of Concrete 2024, early access VIP

[@RealWendys]

I feel like concrete companies should do massive sponsorships with you. Almost at 500k subs. I would never have known about 99% of these products/companies without you. I am 23 years old in college for software engineering, but watching your videos are so relaxing and makes me want to do my own thing. I hope life brings many good things for you, your family, and your crews.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Thats good to know. Thanks for checking us out. GL

[@blessingadex9635]

I will love to work in your company. Am from Nigeria

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Me too TY

[@hotfiyah]

Unfortunately having almost 500k subs doesn't do anything when you average only 15k to 20k views per vid. Having only 3% - 4% of your subscribers watch your videos is not a good sign for companies to sponsor you.

[@McKinnonMitchell]

@@hotfiyah You're thinking about this in terms of mass consumer appeal. E-commerce companies absolutely want to see a TON more engagement & views because the availability of their products to mass consumers is attainable. But when you look at this in terms of the construction industry, getting in on a video with 20K views is a FANTASTIC opportunity. That's very hard to find. You can see the largest brands in the construction industry like CAT, Volvo, & others create incredible videos about their machines and only get a few hundred views. They're BILLION dollar companies & they struggle to get that social media presence. So you're not wrong in general, but you have to look at this per industry standards.

Used to work for Sika. Always wanted to go to World of Concrete. Amazing stuff. Thanks for the video.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@carolleenkelmann3829]

This is great. Just what I was looking for: a comprehensive relay on what the WOC represents.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

This is it, a big concrete reunion

[@Guywithcrazyideas]

Best video of the week!

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Glad you think so!

[@BillyLapTop]

Thank you Dave for sharing the World of Concrete experience with us. As always great educational content. Batteries seem to be taking over. I wonder just how long they can last with all the vibration. I guess it is progress.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Be interesting to see long term

[@jacobs-uo6si]

Wonder why this channel/guys didn’t get a dewalt sponsorship. One of the biggest concrete channels on KZbin

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I didn't ask for one

What/who exactly are you keeping yourself open for? Do you have a wish list? Dewalt is a huge company. Can’t imagine anything bigger than that.

[@trader4239]

Very nice, thanks for showing us

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

My pleasure

Tons of great products. That soft cut saw looks like it moves soo nice n cuts straight

The company I work for just bought that Holcombe G2 mixer in the background of the beginning of your video. Great trucks.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I'd like to see that in action.

Thanks, Mate that was a good demonstration

I plastered a commercial fishing boat here in Santa Barbara. The stripped they the wood, wired the hull, and we shot it with my plaster pump. It actually floats higher than it did when it was wood the owner says.

Like your videos, but wish you had talked with the various vendors and got more in depth explanation of what they were selling.

Next time!

Not sure

[@JasonMohammed]

Did you meant to title World of Concrete 2024, and not 2023?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Yes, I fixed it. Thanks

[@purrple.shadows]

Why did you stop using fiberglass rebars? Didn't you say they were better than steel?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Yes they are but hard to find

[@Saki630]

What are you buying!?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Whatever I find most appealing.

[@torchup]

DeWalt seems to have gone "all in" with sponsoring some KZbin concrete guys giving away their DeWalt tools and merch but I just find Milwaukee a far better tool and battery platform for contractors across the trades and seems to have stepped up their game much earlier than most other tool manufacturers who are seemingly trying desperately to catch up.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Yes, Miwaukke is a few years ahead

[@johngammon6875]

👍

[@unclejesse88]

Is there a reason why your last few videos have had click bait drama titles and thumbnails? In all the years ive watched your videos i don't recall that ever before, even if there was some drama in the video.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

It is what it is

He definitely knows who Ryan is.. he’s the one that started the KZbin thing and every one went along. Check the numbers thought he ain’t worried about it

[@Elonmuskmusk538]

Ryan knows David odell as the O.G. of the concrete game on KZbin

[@watchingoveryou6169]

At the DeWalt display, it looked like old concrete. Did they get permission to demo with the hammer and then DeWalt replaces it once the expo is over?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Yes, that was the difference. The old concrete is harder to cut for the early entry saw

[@madman432000]

What's with the woman hiding her face?

[@lifttreesup]

That’s probably why he almost got kicked out lol, she shouldn’t be there.

[@theprofessorfate6184]

@@OdellCompleteConcrete I use a compressor with my jackhammer because it is many times faster. Time is money. The cordless crap is too disposable and expensive to take seriously. It has its place, but most concrete work is messy, loud and done outside. No need for cordless tools.

My old boshe brut hammer hit 20× harder than that pos dewalt jack hammer. Honeslty I hate dewalt tool. NOT GETTING A DEWALT SPONSORSHIP EITHER LOL😂😂😂😂

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I hear that

[@SidewaysInTraffic]

I run my own business of selling tools and I could say at least in my area (Northern CA), concreters usually use Dewalt. Milwaukee of course is the runner up, but more purchased by mechanics. And Makita is almost always purchased by Mexicans & Japanese.
