Have you ever bought leads from Home Advisor or Modernize or similar companies? How’d it go? If you’re like most companies--not all that well. But there is a small group of contractors out there who have cracked the code and are making money hand over fist from what Rich calls “aggregated” leads… and in this episode, he covers both the pros and cons of pursuing them… and if you do, how to capitalize.

It’s another Throwback Thursday, where we dig into the vault and find gold from days gone by. Here, we dig deep into the archives for a webinar Rich did on Canvassing in 2013.

Rich frequently talks on the podcast about the importance of building your brand; today Rich is going to talk about raising your prices so you can AFFORD to build your brand. He’s going to share the story of the Ignition Code--which is all about having the swagger that comes with KNOWING you’re the best. When you get there, it’s time to raise those prices and get paid what you're really worth. Your sales staff might not like it--and Rich has a solution for that, too. You might want to take this one sitting down.

Every Saturday, we showcase a topic important to you by rounding up the greatest highlights and clips from Level 10 Contractor’s ENTIRE podcast run. Here, we talk about referrals. We love referrals--love them!---which is why we practically beg every customer for a list of friends and family, understanding that if we could leverage this social proof, we could transform one job into a never-ending stream of revenue. Unfortunately, as we all know too well, referrals are more elusive than Bigfoot, and more times than not, when we ask for them as we wrap up the job, customers clam up like they’re keeping a secret. They aren’t lying or being cagey most of the time; they just really don’t know who else needs a roof or new gutters or a  kitchen remodel when you ask them out of the blue.

This podcast is an answer to an email that Rich received recently from a podcast listener about landing pages. It seems that RIch had mentioned on a webinar that he prefers to send web traffic to landing pages that are on your main website… as opposed to some conventional wisdom that says you should have stand-along landing pages. What’s the best way to handle this? Rich has all the answers on this admittedly thorny topic.
