Description
You've got the skills, the experience, and the drive to be great at your trade. But let's be honest, quoting might not be your strong suit, and that's perfectly normal. The craft of creating an exceptional quote is a skill in itself, and that's why the podcast hosted by Greg Allan and Kirk Neal is a must-listen. Greg and Kirk dive deep into the art of making quotes that stand out! With your expertise in the field, you're already ahead of the game. Now it's time to make your quotes as impressive as your work. Here's what you'll learn: Stand Out From the Crowd: Greg insists that your quote must show why you're better than the rest. Don't let a basic app limit your ability to express your unique selling points. You're different, and your quotes should reflect that! Layout Matters: Kirk agrees that readability is vital. Your scope of works should be there but not be the main selling point. Think of it as the "ingredients on a cereal box." They're essential, but they don't sell the product. Add colour and creativity to make your quotes pop. Answer Questions, Don't Create Them: Both Greg and Kirk emphasise the importance of clarity in quotes. A confused buyer hesitates, so make sure everything is transparent. They share techniques to ensure that quotes are clear, concise, and convert more clients. Follow Up: A personal touch goes a long way. Greg and Kirk stress the importance of following up your quotes with a call. Talk to your clients, guide them through, and remove any confusion. Utilise Technology: Tools like SimPro, ServiceMate, and Proposify can elevate your quotes to a new level. Greg and Kirk guide you through the options available to fit your specific business needs.
