Most home performance contractors think price is the biggest reason homeowners hesitate to move forward. But survey data from thousands of homeowners tells a different story.
This webinar explores what homeowners actually care about when choosing a contractor, what builds trust during the sales process, and where contractors may be focusing on the wrong things. You’ll review real homeowner feedback, common buyer profiles, and practical messaging strategies that help improve engagement and decision-making.
The session will also share a simple system for collecting customer feedback so contractors can continue improving their sales and marketing based on what their own customers value most.
 
Learning Objectives:
  • Identify what homeowners consistently rank as most important, and least important, when evaluating contractors and making their final decision
  • Compare messaging approaches that build trust versus messaging that creates skepticism
  • Apply customer feedback strategies to improve sales conversations and marketing efforts
