TestimonialsTestimonials“Dear Rick, Last month and this month are going to be the best in
remodeling projects to date. In regards to your sales kit, let me give you an example of how one of your techniques worked for me.
I turned a prospect, into a client and they actually thanked me for selling them their $17,456.00 bath remodel. Then they wanted to know if I could fit the hall bathroom into my schedule in the next 4 weeks. I hadn’t even quoted a price yet!
Well Rick I had the confidence to get the order because of your techniques and the way you describe the sales process. By the way YES you are correct. I've been finding that price is really not the issue. Just had to let you know. “
