How it Happened

Pulley Pro Corey Albrecht leveraged his 10 years of Mecklenburg County knowledge and relationships to speed up the review process.

He sequenced multiple submittals to run in parallel with each other, creating overlapping work streams. A lengthy state food establishment review was submitted first, along with an early site approval so it could feed directly into building approval.

Corey also took advantage of the county’s interactive reviews process and coordinated rapid responses with AORs, clearing most approvals in the first cycle.

Why it Matters

For this client, one week equals an average of $40,000 in revenue at each location. Getting approvals 3 months ahead of target creates an additional $480,000 in revenue opportunity.
