A strong pre-qualification process to bring in the right customers.

On this episode of Estimate Rocket, we are joined by Jeff Wraley of Groundwork to talk about a major pain point of contractors that we don't talk enough about: pre-qualifying leads. Tire-kickers are the bane of every sales process, and reducing wasted time on dead-end leads can drastically increase your bottom line. Jeff talks with us about how a strong pre-qualification process can not only help bring in the right customers but can also create a great foundation for more efficient project management and smooth customer relationships long after the sale.

The power of having a customer base.

This episode of Contractor Evolution is with Brian Kaskavalciyan, Author of The 7 Secrets to becoming a Wealthy Contractor, Host of the Wealthy Contractor Podcast, and Co-Founder of gFour Marketing Group: A relationship marketing firm that helps contractors unleash the power of their customers by installing the industry-leading framework for driving referrals.
