Listen Later

In episode 19 of the Professional Builders Secrets podcast, our host, Bosco Anthony is joined by Co-founders of the Association of Professional Builders Russ Stephens and Sky Stephens, along with APB’s Head Coach, Andy Skarda. Throughout this episode, the trio reveal the proven sales process that all builders must follow.


During episode 19 of the Professional Builders Secrets podcast, Russ, Sky and Andy share the secrets that every builder should be implementing into their sales process to sign more contracts at higher margins.


As a builder, if you are struggling to charge for quotes then you are probably attracting the wrong audience or you are not demonstrating value. The best way to convey value is to be unique, so it’s important to review your Unique Selling Proposition.


Builders that charge for quotes are eight times more likely to win a job as opposed to those who do not. So while the easy option may appear to be ‘just do it’ or ‘quote and hope’, the reality is that you’re probably wasting your time.


Listen to the full episode as Russ, Sky and Andy share more important secrets behind the proven sales process that every builder should be following.
