If it wasn’t such a terrible pun, I’d tell you that the roofing industry is constantly reaching new heights. It’s elevated its game. Among home-repair industries, it is head and shoulders above the rest. Bad jokes, right? But all 100 percent the truth.

The roofing repair industry is ascendant in the United States. Between tragic weather events, a booming home sales market that has everyone wanting to get their property fixed up and on the market, and the fact that putting a new roof or repairing an old one can have so many benefits to the quality and value of your home, quality roofing companies are in high demand all over the country.

That might make it sound like there’s plenty of work for everyone, but that’s being naive. If you’ve been in this industry for a day or a decade, you know how competitive it can get. Not only are you being compared on your prices and your performance, but also on your professionalism, your salesmanship, your customer service after the sale, and the way you carry and present yourself.

Here’s the good news: I’m going to share my knowledge with you on how to become the best possible roofing salesman you can be. My name is Ken Conrad, and I have more than 20 years’ experience in the industry. I own Conrad’s Roofing and Construction out of Tulsa, OK. Growing my business to its current level of success didn’t come overnight for me, and it won’t for you either. It takes hard work - not just in the actual task of removing, restoring, and replacing roofs, but in every single part of your business practice. My sales pitches and processes are motivated by the brilliant work of authors like Zig Ziglar and Og Mandino, and I’m going to pass a lot of that wisdom on to you in this quick guide to roofing sales success.
