If you could wave a magic wand and improve just one thing in your business to guarantee you more income, what one thing would you change?
Think about it for a moment. You might say get more leads, better or more qualified help, more efficient scheduling, or get better at goal setting. All of these skills may help you on some level. But the single biggest thing you can do to increase your effectiveness and make more money than ever before is… Get Better At Sales… Get Better at Winning Jobs
How much more can you make by improving your sales skills? The answer is so incredible, at first you won’t believe it.
Let’s say your closing ratio is 1 out of every 4 jobs you bid on. Don’t get me wrong, this is not bad; I’ve had painters come to me saying they only win only 1 out of every 5 or 6 jobs they bid. But what if you could do better? What if you could win 4 out of every 5?
Now do you see you could double or even triple or quadruple your income?
Wouldn’t you agree that this not only better maximizes your time, but better maximizes each bidding opportunity? Every opportunity to meet with a prospect and give them a bid is an opportunity to close the sale and make money.
Just a little increase in your selling and closing effectiveness can yield big results over the course of an entire year. You could go from making $500,000 to making $1 Million. And you did it all without paying one additional dime in marketing cost. Your marketing budget doesn’t have to increase by a single dime.
The only change is that you got just a little bit better at sales and closing. So what’s the single most important thing to dedicate yourself to so you can guarantee more income? That’s right. You guessed it. You must… Become Better at Sales.
Now the question is, “Can I become a better salesperson, or are people like that just ‘born’ that way?”
Good news. Yes you can learn the skills. When we look at good salespeople we tend to just see the “art” of it at work and many think, “I could never be like that”. But underlying that art is a true “science” and it’s the application of that science that will allow you to perform the art.
In my coaching program, I’ve trained countless painters to be masters of sales and winning bids and I can train you too. All you need is a willingness to learn, and willingness to practice and implement what I teach you. Are you in? Want to solve all your cash flow problems forever? Make more in a single month than you’ve ever made in a year? I have many clients who’ve done both and you can too. And you don’t even have join my coaching program to do it.
Of all the secrets and tips I teach, the most valuable (if you apply it) is this… Get Better at Sales. Improving your sales skills is the greatest investment you’ll ever make in yourself.
If you have salespeople or estimators who do the selling for you, let me train them for you. They can win more jobs and make you more money. They can learn how and I can teach them. I’ve put years of perfected techniques and strategies into an easy to learn home study course. It’s called Sales Mastery for Painting Contractors.
Go check it out now at www.paintersuccess.com because winning more jobs is the best way to make more money without spending more on marketing. I promise, you'll be so pleasantly surprised and excited by how inexpensive this course is, you'll want to get it and start using it right away.
