“The networking opportunity and the amount of education that is presented by the consultants is outstanding,” saidJim Hinshawof Sales Improvement Professionals; his presentation was about closing big-ticket sales. “If you put those consultants in the same room and you went to pay for them…we’re talking $20,000 or $30,000 worth of education.”

Service Nation Alliance members stayed an extra day to discuss performance pay, pricing systems, field manuals, an Advisory Board reporting system and email marketing to boost customer acquisition and retention.

Contractors also enjoyed some phenomenal evening events hosted by Lennox Industries and Goodman Manufacturing.
