The last time that you bought a large ticket item, did you feel empowered to make a decision or were you sold with high pressure sales tactics?   Did this cause a positive or negative reaction before, during, or perhaps even after the sale? As a professional contractor starting my path in the insurance restoration and in-home selling arena I was mostly under the impression that every customer wanted the exact same roof that they presently had… Well that is what the competition did at least.  Then I started to actually poll my clients about what their needs wants and beliefs truly were at the point of roof replacement.

They didn’t really know… but would always follow with one simple statement. “We weren’t even offered anything else other than what we had until we called out multiple contractors.” Now let’s be honest.   No homeowner truly wants to go through the process of a roof replacement.   Nor do they enjoy 75 strangers knocking on their door for the first 7 days after a hailstorm or wind event has hit their neighborhood.  Add on top of that the 3-5 appointments that they then set with the contractors of their choice from the 75 that have knocked.   Of these 3-5 there are countless claims and promises about the companies that they represent.   Some that are true and some that are simply not true.   I know that as a roofing professional knocking on doors, running appointments, or working through social media there is a need to stand out.

Guess what?   I found that free TV’s, dog walks, and manicures weren’t what the customer truly wanted.  They want what we would all like!   They wanted someone to treat them with honesty, that will do what they say they can or will do, a fair deal, and the power to purchase something.   This is why we built the HIRevPro platform. This gave the customer the ability to build a roof much like a car on a website.  With their trusted contractor by their side to help guide them through the educational process.   

If you’re a homeowner ask your contractor what options that you have.   If you are a contractor, let’s start out off by offering your prospective clients all of the options that would best fit their needs for their current roofing project in one easy to use platform.  There is more than one way to buy a roof and most certainly as a roofing professional, it is more fun to be a consultant than a pushy door to door sales person.   Up your game and deliver what people want.   We provide industry leading platforms built for the future with your future in mind.

Sales, Simplified.
