🎙️ How fast do you call a lead back, and how many jobs has that number already cost you? Chris Smith, author of The Conversion Code and former top closer at Quicken Loans, went from a Florida single-wide to a seven-figure company with zero outside cash. He breaks down why speed to lead beats price, reviews, and even quality of work, plus the acknowledge-respond-pivot move that disarms price shoppers, the one-plus-one formula that builds trust before you have a hundred reviews, why longer conversations close more deals, and the mindset-effort-skill mix that separates closers from everyone still chasing leads.
