In this ICYMI cut, Corey Fore explains why sustainable HVAC sales performance does not come from one magic technique. It comes from a million small things: keeping the customer’s best interest first, educating clearly, presenting meaningful options, and letting the homeowner choose without pressure.

Corey Fore can point to strong numbers—including a reported quarter with the highest average ticket and approximately $1.2 million in sales—but he does not credit one script, trick, or closing technique for the result.

In this ICYMI highlight, Corey explains that there are no silver bullets. The real work is a million little things done consistently, beginning with how you approach the customer and carrying through every recommendation. From the knock at the door forward, the customer’s best interest has to stay at the center.

That philosophy shows up most clearly in the way Corey presents options. Instead of deciding what a homeowner can afford or pushing one answer, he educates, explains the tradeoffs, and gives people meaningful choices so they can decide what is best for themselves. The lesson is simple: strong sales performance and customer-first service do not have to compete when trust is built into the process.

Review one of your team’s common repair or replacement recommendations. Build three clear, meaningful options, explain the tradeoffs without steering the customer toward your preferred price point, and make the customer’s best interest the standard for how each option is presented.

In this ICYMI cut, Kristian Hall shares the service-first sales-recovery process behind millions in recovered home-service revenue. Learn why the best follow-up starts with research, a Happy Call that gets the customer talking, intentional listening, and checking every box before trying to close.

How much revenue is already sitting inside estimates your team did not close the first time? In this ICYMI highlight, Kristian Hall revisits the phone-based sales-recovery process that helped her recover millions in home-service revenue without stepping inside the home.

Kristian explains the progression of the process: find the gold already inside the opportunity, review and assess the customer before calling, make a Happy Call instead of jumping into a sales pitch, listen long enough to understand what the customer actually needs, and check every box before moving toward a recommendation.

The larger lesson is simple: sales recovery is not about having every answer or pushing harder. It is about doing the research, staying curious, letting the customer talk, and working the opportunities the business has already earned.

• Recovering millions in home-service revenue by phone

• Why existing unclosed estimates deserve another look

• Finding the “gold” left behind in the original sales process

• Reviewing customer history before making the follow-up call

• The purpose of the Happy Call

• Getting the customer talking instead of immediately selling

• Why intentional listening beats trying to have every answer

• Checking every decision box before moving toward a recommendation

• Staying curious and becoming a better people person

Pull 10 unclosed estimates from the last 30 days. Review the notes and customer history before calling, then make each follow-up a Happy Call: ask what changed, let the customer talk, listen for what is really holding up the decision, and do not move to a recommendation until you have checked the important boxes.
