Listen Later

Every great service technician knows the 3 C's: competence, confidence, and control. But how do you actually build them?

In this episode of Windshield Time, Chris Elmore and James "J Dub" Walker break down how technicians can go from just "knowing the work" to leading conversations with customers and closing calls with confidence.

Inside this episode:

-Why competence always comes first (skills + knowledge = confidence) -The role of personality profiles (High S & High C) in shaping confidence -Why asking for help is growth, not "faking it" -How to handle customer objections without losing control -The secret to translating technical jargon into customer-friendly language -Why questions restore control when conversations go sideways

Whether you're in HVAC, plumbing, or electrical, this episode will help you turn technical competence into customer trust, stronger communication, and more closed calls.
