Are You An Engine Or An Anchor?

BY: Joe Crisara

Engine Or Anchor herunterladen?

I love the use of analogies. One of the prime examples I use is a owner of a contracting company as being the captain of a ship. As the leader you may find yourself heading towards “stormy business weather.” This storm is approaching as your sales revenue is lower than your overhead, field labor and material costs can substantiate windows xp language pack german download kostenlos. When this happens, you start to take on water. (Go into debt) Soon the whole ship is in danger of sinking.

When you finally wind up in the worst part of the storm the telltale signs are all around you as the captain tolino bücher im ausland herunterladen. The rain of phone calls from vendors looking to collect on what you owe or the lightning of your having to consider a loan, line of credit or even take money out of your own pocket, just to make payroll this week are just a few of the signs that your ship is indeed in trouble facebook bilder downloaden.

Selling On Tough Calls: Multiple Estimates

BY: Julie Crisara

That Moment You Realize This Is A Tough Call

Carol looked at me and said, “Just so you know, we’re getting 3 estimates before we make a decision.” Not to be outdone by his wife, Bob yelled, “Four estimates,” as he turned and walked into the other room Download the nutrition plan for free.  I thought to myself, I haven’t even taken off my shoes yet and this is what I get.  I hate these multiple estimate tough calls.  Just then Joe walked in the door and introduced himself alle tkkg folgen kostenlos downloaden.  “Hi, I’m Joe Crisara, the quality control manager.  How are you today, Carol?”

Carol gave Joe that same determined look and said, “I just want you to know that we have 3 estimates lined up this week and we won’t be making any decisions until we hear them all.”

“First, let me say thanks for calling us and for the opportunity to help you and your family with this issue entspannungsmusiken kostenlos. It’s a pleasure and an honor to be here today and it really means a lot to us that you chose our company to assist you. Carol, can I ask you a question?” “Of course,” Carol said brennprogramm für windows vista kostenlosen.

“Carol, I really appreciate your honesty about getting 3 prices before making a decision.  We don’t go out for dinner these days without seeing the different options available to us and the prices alongside them thanks to social media and sites like Yelp herunterladen. They’ve changed the restaurant industry.”

Joe wasn’t phased a bit by Carol’s comment and immediately followed with, “We like to think that we are changing the way service contractors do business with homeowners like yourself as well diablo kostenlos downloaden vollversion deutsch. You said you are only going to get 3 estimates.  Our company gives 6 estimates on every call, kind of like that insurance company where you name your own price.  This way you have all the possibilities right in front of you at the same time yed download.  So why are you limiting yourself to only 3 estimates?”

Carol was a bit stunned and didn’t know what to say but was able to stumble out the words, “We are actually getting 4 estimates.”  Joe just rolled with the punches, but I could tell he was wareing her out wimmelbild spiele vollversion kostenlos downloaden pc. “I understand Carol.  I’m not trying to make you feel bad.  It’s just that if I were to show you my 6 estimates instead of only 4, and you liked one of those options, what would happen next?” Continue reading “Selling On Tough Calls: Multiple Estimates” →

Prioritizing Calls When You’re Swamped

BY: Joe Crisara

 

Time is the great equalizer videos from youtube ss. No matter how big your company is, time is a commodity that becomes very limiting in terms of the ability to be there when our best clients need us.  Both large and small companies are basically “closed for business” once their schedules become saturated with opportunities netflix film downloaden ipad.

Drinking From a Fire Hose

In the service industry, you have to be more than quick on your toes kindle bücher kostenlos downloaden. Especially when calls are pouring in because of some extreme weather or other phenomena causing increased customer need. This tends to happen in the summer months when the weather is hot and many residential AC systems start to fail and need repair download cewe fotobuch software. The spring brings flooding season, accompanied by an influx of calls for plumbers. Additionally, electricians feel the rush to fix heating units before the holidays at the end of the year.  No matter what industry you’re in, there will be a time when you can’t keep up musik download kostenlos auf handy.

Having enough opportunity can quench the thirst of going through a dry spell.  But when it’s TOO busy, it’s like drinking from a fire hose.  You can literally drown your company in too much opportunity and then pay the price in unpaid overtime expenses, employee burnout and unhappy loyal clients leading to the ultimate destruction of your business wie kann ich bei amazon hörbücher herunterladen.

The System IS the Solution

To begin thinking about a “systematic” priority system, consider what’s needed as a version of emergency room triage download microsoft office 2016 for free.  Just like a hospital, we need to make sure that the more urgent patients get service first, while taking into account whether the patient has the right provider that’s covered in their network amazon video downloaden pc. Plus, we’ve got to make sure that all the proper paperwork has been completed to secure the financial obligations that go along with an emergency service like that passepartout spiel herunterladen.

8 Reasons Why You’re Losing Sales and Wasting Time

BY: Joe Crisara

It’s easy to have a great, confident attitude when the wind’s at your back and victories are coming in motorola bilder herunterladen. Those are the times when just about anybody can show the grace of professionalism. But face a prolonged dry spell or series of difficult obstacles, and that’s when you find your deep inner character herunterladen. When a winner faces uphill battles, he displays the same commitment to the basics as when things are easy. He doesn’t check out or feel sorry for himself, he puts his head down and hits the heavy bag, so to speak ccleaner. Luckily, you can work on your traits when facing adversity. I’ve learned from years in the service industry, and these tips will make you the kind of diehard professional for whom defeat is simply not an option why can't I download tumblr.

1. Who Is At The Center of a Customer Interaction?

Who’s the most important person when you’re talking to a customer amazon prime filme herunterladen auf pc? Your ego wants to say that you are but your professional mind should know that it’s the customer. You put the customer and their needs first, and your needs will be taken care of in the long run coin master for free. Nine tenths of your effort should be on finding out about the customer, and one tenth should go toward telling about yourself. Too much paperwork or show-offy materials will sink a deal fast whatsapp symbole herunterladen.

You must find out about your customer’s life, family, pets, job, interests, hobbies, etc. What do they love? Do they have children with allergies or other medical issues web.de mail app herunterladen? You can offer a higher quality AC unit with a HEPA filter or dehumidifier. Are they all about protecting the environment?  If they are, you can offer them some green, environmental-friendly solutions like solar panels or a water efficient toilet download dropbox whole folder.

The Impact Of Lowering Your Price

BY: Joe Crisara

Will Lower Prices Sell More herunterladen?

It’s not hard to find contractors who think they are losing jobs because their competitors have a lower price than them. How many are losing jobs because they lower their price instead of standing firm hotel dash full version for free?

That is a question that is much harder to answer. Especially since most people do not want to face the truth. The truth is that you will lose far more sales with a lower price or worse yet, by lowering the price you have already given than they ever will by having a higher price than your competitors webex download kostenlos.

5 Reasons Why Lowering Your Price Could Cost Sales

1 firefox download for free german windows 10 64 bit. You Look Like Your Competitors – Do you really think that having the lowest price will make you stand out? Every other salesperson says the same thing etiketten maken downloaden. Everyone claims to have the lowest prices because they think it will get the customer’s attention. Even if it did make you stand out, it would be for the wrong reason – the very wrong reason of offering a watered-down version of what people really want etwas aus der ard mediathek downloaden.

A higher price with a more premium package is really the only way to look different from your competition. Offer something better that no one else can offer filmen op macbook air. A lower price just isn’t it.

2. It Takes Focus Off Your Customer – Price does not determine the sale; your customer does mit welche app kann ich musik herunterladen iphone. That means that your attention should be completely on them. Everything you do should help you understand and connect with your customers so that you will discover their motivation for buying vavoo pro kostenlos downloaden.

Customers search for a product that is the best solution to their problem. They understand that a product cannot be the lowest priced and still be the best jdownloader 2 download deutsch kostenlos. Making the sale requires that you find the best solution, not the cheapest.

3. It Decreases Perception Of Your Value – Before every purchase, a customer considers, “Is this worth it?” The answer depends on the value of the product, not the price. If they envision themselves using and benefiting from the product, the answer is yes and the purchase is made. Continue reading “The Impact Of Lowering Your Price” →

The 1 Thing You Should Never Do As A Contractor

BY: Julie Crisara

Simplicity is good, and although the home contracting industry has its complexities, here is one very simple rule to go by herunterladen. If you had to boil down all of the tricks, tips and rules of running a successful home contracting business, there is one cardinal rule that rises above all the rest gmx downloaden. In the same way that you don’t touch the electrified third rail in a subway, Don’t fail to give your customers options! In other words, always be offering them options Download free motorcycle games!

A WORLD WITHOUT CHOICES?!

Imagine you walk into a super hardware store, you know, a giant, airplane hangar sized place with 20 aisles, each one way over your head and absolutely jammed with stuff amazon serien herunterladen mac. There’s electrical, plumbing, hand tools, power tools, wires, cables, lumber, gardening, siding, etc. etc, you name it. And an employee in an orange vest comes up and nudges you over to a checkout station, throws a couple 2×4’s, a claw hammer and a pack of chamois cloths on the conveyor belt and says “That’ll be $23.95” google play musik kostenlos downloaden. “Huh?” you’d be thinking.

You just walked in to the store to choose from the thousands of items and this employee comes along and tells you exactly what you’re getting at exactly what price herunterladen. That sounds like an eastern European country during the Cold War- not like the good old US of A, where we have choices and freedom, especially when it comes to our goods and services amazon prime video macbook!

Neither you nor anyone you know would go back to a hardware store that operated even remotely similar to that.

So why do some people in the home contracting industry think it’s okay to similarly offer customers no choice gratis schriftarten herunterladen?

If you don’t offer any options, choices or alternatives to your customers, it comes across as if you’re issuing a demand on them, laying down the gauntlet, putting them in a corner download simpleclub. People don’t like that feeling. You might think that they appreciate being told exactly what to do and not having to make up their mind, but a lot of people are so used to having choices that it seems crude and impolite to not be offered a variety of options for their products and services I can movies from the zdf mediathek.

3 Surefire Ways to Discourage Employees (And Sales)

BY: Julie Crisara

As the manager of employees in the contracting industry, you have a lot of control over your people uni würzburg endnote. And I don’t just mean technically, on paper, according to the company’s organizational chart, but rather in everyday ways, psychologically and behaviorally Download tax return free of charge. You can have a huge effect on your contracting sales people and field service reps just by the way that you act and the things that you say to them on a regular basis navigation karten download kostenlos. You can encourage them or discourage them. If you discourage them, expect a decrease in morale, revenues and company reputation gratis schnittmuster herunterladen. How would you go about discouraging your employees? Here are the 3 most effective ways.

Employees on the front lines (those in-the-trenches sales people and service reps in the field) need support and encouragement to stay motivated in their job how can I roblox. They have to create relationships, make happy customers and maintain a base of clients that stays for the long haul. So, if you fail to offer the support, understanding and resources they need in these few fundamental areas, you will guarantee a slow (or speedy) descent into a failing business download from dropbox.

SEE FACELESS BLOBS, NOT DISTINCT GENERATIONS

Treat all your employees exactly the same, regardless of their age or generational cohort Download gta 4 for free for pc. Disregard the differences, among your staff, between the World War II “Greatest” generation, Baby Boomers, Gen X, Gen Y and Millennials lernwerkstatt 7 kostenlos downloaden vollversion. Treat them all generically. Do not interact and coach them based upon the fact that the WWII generation generally responds to authority, Boomers look for meaning in their work, Gen X is self-reliant and seeks life balance and Gen Y looks to be recognized for their exertion windows update einzeln herunterladen.

Throw away the knowledge that everyone’s belief system is nearly solidified by the time they turn 14. Likewise, ignore the expert advice to look at the major events that occurred during the formative years of each generation for guidance in empathizing with their fears, yearnings and aspirations itunes gekaufte titel herunterladen.

MAKE IT ABOUT MONEY, MONEY, MONEY!

2.) Act in every situation as if money is the absolute motivation behind everything your employees think, do and feel. Assume that everyone is driven primarily by a lust for financial wealth at the expense of everything else. Approach your contracting sales people and field service reps based on the assumption that any other issue or problem they have can be solved by money. They are willing to suppress any negative feelings of their work, interactions or quality of life, if you just put more money in their bank accounts.

Disregard this simple fact: If you sit employees down and offer them 4 words- money, lifestyle, recognition and challenge- and ask them to rank the words in terms of personal importance, 90% will NOT put ‘money’ in the #1 slot.

So treat your employees as two-dimensional, money-hungry buzzards instead of as the complex, variously motivated human beings that they are.

Everybody has a dream, and some people’s dream is getting fired android gmail anhangen. Ya know- canned, pink-slipped, see ya later alligator! Okay, I don’t know positively for sure that being let go is their dream, but observing some sales managers in the home contracting industry, it sure seems like it download music audio. I mean, if these guys weren’t trying to get cut loose then they just coincidentally happened to be doing the very same things that’ll send you out the door and down to the Unemployment office faster than you can say “Invoice attached.”

I don’t want anyone to get fired, especially if they actually like and want to keep their job facebooken windows. I have a special soft spot for people in the contracting industry, because I’ve spent decades actually working in that field and also as a consultant helping other contractors improve their business, using the things I have learned and observed over the years herunterladen. But I realized that it’s so easy and so common for seemingly bright and well-intentioned contracting sales managers to make decisions that were really detrimental- and self-destructive- in the long run without even knowing it gmx.net. It turns out, a lot of this stuff is NOT just common sense!

Instead of telling you- a current or aspiring sales manager or other supervisory position in the home plumbing, HVAC or electrical contracting field- what to do to keep your job, I’m going to tell you what to do to get fired scratch desktop herunterladen.

Does Higher Price Raise Perception Of Quality?

Consumer Shortcuts

Let’s face facts music like. Most of us take shortcuts when making a purchase that we are unfamiliar with.

Selling the Brand of You

BY: Joe Crisara

selling-the-brand-of-you

If you were around in the 80’s like I was, maybe you remember the “generic brand” at your local grocery stores nachrichten herunterladen.

I’m talking about the plain white packages with only black block letters and a bar code on them.

Those black block letters spelled out things like BEANS, BEER, COLA… and who could forget LUNCH LOAF android 6.0 herunterladen.

It’s not the most loafappealing product name, but you could probably argue that “Lunch Loaf” is no less appetizing than the word “Spam.”

A far cry from all the cool brand names and catchy slogans we’re used to, the marketing strategy behind the generic craze back in the day, was simply to be cheap flash videos download firefox.

That’s it. Low price. That was the only goal, and it was also the only competitive advantage this brand had.

Today the generic brand is gone, but in its place are numerous private label store brands hidrive dateien herunterladen. And if you asked most consumers, you’d find that the majority of them believe that their local grocer’s  “private label” store brand is of equal if not better quality than the national brand herunterladen.

Many recent studies have shown that private label products are growing at a steady pace, and in the grocery business, private label brands now account for a lion’s share of the grocery business prozentrechner herunterladen.

Think about how you shop. When you buy eggs, do you feel like you have to buy a major brand? Or are you just as happy with the store brand? If you’re like most people, you’re perfectly happy to buy the eggs with your local store’s logo on it instead of the national brand.  In fact, because it’s local it may be MORE trusted as well herunterladen.

All the egg and lunch loaf conversation aside… you’re probably wondering how this applies to you as a contractor.

The same principles that have turned numerous companies in other industries into profitable private label masters can also be applied to service contractors wo kann ich windows 10 downloaden. Continue reading “Selling the Brand of You” →

And how does the general public decide where to buy gas? The go wherever it’s the cheapest.
