We Want To Hear Your AGC Story!

 AGC Houston means something different to everyone. We want to hear what it has meant for you! Have you connected with a mentor? Found an industry friend? Brought in new business? Learned a key skill from one of our classes? We want to know! We would love for you to record a short (30 second) video about your AGC story, and share it on social media. Let us know what you've received from being an AGC Houston member.

Here are some tips for making a compelling video: 

• Prop your phone up horizontally: slightly above your face
• Make sure your camera lens is clean
• Sit in a well-lit place where the light hits your face (not coming in from behind you)
• Record in a quiet place

 Post your video on Linkedin and tag AGC Houston using (@AGCHouston)
