My biggest change in response from people was definitely coming at it with the mindset of I’m here to help people instead of trying to make the sale. I definitely hate when people knock on my door so I had a really hard time at first getting out there because of the feeling of being that “sleazy sales man”. You definitely changed my whole experience to now this is my favorite job I’ve ever done.

I’ve made six figures in the car business year after year. Wanted to try something different with more of a flexible schedule. Found roofing. Bought into the earning potential. Work more hours with significantly less money. Hopefully it’ll change. 1.5 mths in.

Welcome to the channel and the industry! Learning a whole new product to sell is a different animal. And the first few months of roofing sales are the hardest. You have to get through the learning curve and build your sales pipeline. Once you get traction, things TAKE OFF. Wishing you all the best and glad to have you here!

Adam Bens…..I’m new to roofing sales and I’ve been saturating everything I possibly can from you. I had a rough first 2 months, but had a break through month in April and actually won top number of contingencies for the month of April, which came along with an Apple Watch series 9!! This was a great interview with the other Adam, I feel a lot of comparisons in his testimony of success. Thanks for all you do!! I super appreciate it!!

Hey Daniel, super stoked to hear that. Finding inspiration in other people's success is super helpful. Instead of paving a new path, just follow the footsteps of those before you :) Adam Jones is a solid dude with great advice and I hope this helps you!

"Do you have any objections to getting a second option on your roof?" I used that question all the time. It worked great as a closing question when I did 6 years of tempur sales. Really learned about that kind of question from Chris Voss never split the difference.

hey im gonna start selling gutters for a company Thursday! been watching your stuff and really enjoying it. What one of your courses would you recommend for a complete beginner.
@TheRoofStrategist3 жыл бұрын
Hey Damon! Great to have you here. A LOT of my free content is applicable to all types of sales. I get email from people using my stuff for solar, windows, and even kitchen/bath remodels. That being said, my paid programs are rather roofing specific, so I'm not sure if they'd be the best fit for you. You would have to modify your language etc. to work for gutters. Now that that disclaimer is out of the way and if you are comfortable with this, my program Your Complete SALES Strategy would be your best bet to start drumming up new business and turn 1 sale into many. If you are NOT comfortable with having to modify language etc., then I recommend getting my free "Pitch" Like a Pro video training library and getting as much as you can from it :) www.theroofstrategist.com/pitch-like-a-pro Hope this helps!

Great question. These 3rd party lead sources can be hit or miss. Some contractors are crushing it with them while others feel it's a total waste. Upside, costs can be low. Worth a shot. Downside is, the leads are tough to land because they are farmed out to multiple contractors. Also, NOT being exclusive means you won't be able to retarget the lead with digital advertising efforts because the lead came through a web source you don't own/control. In general, I'd prioritize other avenues for my personal marketing dollars. But if you're already doing everything else - then it can't hurt to try. As they say, if it ain't broke - don't fix it.
