Welcome!! So glad to have you here. Tell your boss I say hi and thank you for spreading the word. I hope to help YOU succeed in this industry and transform your life :)
Casey, our convo the other day was one of the inspirations for today's video! Hope you are still crushing it out there landing those monster 60+ square roofs!
Adam! Just wanted to say thanks man. I’ve been watching your videos this passed month as I geared up for a complete career change from the corporate environment as an ops manager to a storm chaser. I’m not pulling any punches when I say this, I used your guidance along with my training from Aspen Exteriors and within my first 2 days I signed 5 contracts!! Needless to say I’m shooting for 10 total by tomorrow. Thank you for all that you do with your channel. God bless
HECK YEAH DUDE! Congrats! I'm sorry for the delay - catching up on comments. If you're having that level of success this early, you are going to CRUSH IT!
Much appreciate! I’ll keep you posted on actual earnings once I complete my first full month. I only worked for 6 days and brought back enough for my mortgage and Xmas shopping. I look forward to seeing more of your content.
That's a great question. I added this topic to my video list. In the meantime, I address this throughout some of my videos in my Contingency Agreement Playlist here: th-cam.com/play/PLZ20p_mXvgkWC9DYIuCUitGGKM4a8c7z-.html&si=gYtAtiJRvbMq5aQy
I just recently got introduce to roofs sales, I’m sorry my question really has nothing to do with this video (tho i loving these videos and taking many notes)but I notice you have a high response rate so.. how common is it really to find storm damage roofs? They say its a numbers game, but you got also gotta find the damaged roofs...
Hey Scott! Welcome to the channel. Great question. And yes, I respond to dang-near all the comments I see! (Every once in a while TH-cam doesn't notify me - argh!). Anyhow, to answer your question... depends on where you are working. Hail is quite common in AZ and NM through CO all the way east to CT and PA. Some of the south east states see more wind damage than hail damage. Florida has more wind (and obviously hurricanes too). Norther markets (WI, MN, OH, IH, IL) see hail more than wind. At the same time, CA , WA, and OR don't see much (if any) damaging hail. So in a nutshell, severe hail/windstorms happen throughout most all of the US. Hail is widespread and can impact tens of thousands of homes at once. Finding the damage isn't difficult, because technology and software providers literally map out the areas that were hit. So all you need to do is go get eyes on it and start finding the best neighborhoods. More on that in my Scouting Series: th-cam.com/play/PLZ20p_mXvgkWLEVlAyJEYN5N01qTgJ1Ds.html Hope this helps!!
You bet I do! A SAMPLE is included in the Marketing Battle Pack: www.theroofstrategist.com/storm-battle-pack Why a sample? Because I'm not a lawyer :) And state laws vary. Plus, they seem to change pretty rapidly! But using that as a sample will get you well on your way!
Hey Adam I signed a customer up and got done leaving and their agent called and told them not to do anything. They shut everything down at that point. I explained to them that he is not on their roof seeing what I saw but they sided with him cause they had been with their Insurance for years. What would you do in that scenario?
Woah. This sounds borderline criminal. I would personally contact the customer and find out why they cancelled? IF it's because the agent told them not to file a claim (assuming there's real damage on the home), I would report it to the state insurance commission.
Yes we had someone in the office who had this happened to him last week also. I would do exactly what Adam said. I personally wouldn’t contact the HO after that. I’m a firm believer in the philosophy of learning the hard way. If you don’t want to own your issues AFTER I show you proof, then it’s really on you whatever happens to you after that.🤷🏻♂️
so the thing that is killing me is the homeowner will let me do the inspection but it's always someone else has the insurance info, so I end up dealing with the wrong person to begin with.
Shoot! Quick fix: Ask early on (to qualify your prospect). Before I hop on the roof, may I ask what insurance carrier you have? -- If they can't answer, find out who is in charge :)
The signed contingency must have the insurance info and all the detailed info of a particular homeowner with his/her information registered at the insurance company, otherwise don't get up on the roof.
So you say tricks, but really - there is a need there, right? If someone has damage, there is that need. But it's still a dance. It's still a yes or a no - depending on how a customer feels, what they see, who they sense you are. So, you say "tricks", I say a sales method. I am not trying to argue with you but just trying to share how the good roofers and the honest roofers feel... Yes, there's a lot of shifty, shady guys out there and that's what is unfortunate! Very.
Always been curious… when a homeowner asks if I want something to drink, I say “sure, that sounds great! Thank you!” They say: “Ok, I’ve got this, this and that!” Do I want to be selective? Or should I say “whatever is easiest for you?” I know it sounds small, but being selective gives them the impression that I know what I want and I have a goal. That’s how I feel anyway. Any suggestions?
@@jeffdyrland2795 If they offer, you should accept it just like you would at a friend's house :) Doesn't matter if it's made or not. They want you to be happy and comfortable - that's why they offered. So take them up on it and express your gratitude :)
Just emailed Adam about this problem, 2 days later.. this video is put out! Adam is the GOAT

Happy to help! Thanks for being here.

I accepted a dr pepper today while doing a site survey for an installation we sold today. 😁
Alright my dude!! Heck yeah!
Love this phrase
🤘 works like magic :)
Great Count me in , happy selling
Peggy sends her best 🤣
I have a client that doesn’t want to sign the agreement until he gets fully approved. What is the best way to go about this situation?
That's a great question. I added this topic to my video list. In the meantime, I address this throughout some of my videos in my Contingency Agreement Playlist here: th-cam.com/play/PLZ20p_mXvgkWC9DYIuCUitGGKM4a8c7z-.html&si=gYtAtiJRvbMq5aQy
3:11 = powerful
Don't know if you've read it but you might read "Never Split the Difference" by Christopher Voss. Talks about getting a no etc.
Thanks for the recommendation! I will add it to my list! :)

Hey Adam, do you have an example/template you utilize for your contingency agreements?
You bet I do! A SAMPLE is included in the Marketing Battle Pack: www.theroofstrategist.com/storm-battle-pack Why a sample? Because I'm not a lawyer :) And state laws vary. Plus, they seem to change pretty rapidly! But using that as a sample will get you well on your way!
Where’s the list of objections list? I don’t see it here does anyone have that link?
How is your company "getting started" if the adjuster hasn't approved it yet?
Hey Adam I signed a customer up and got done leaving and their agent called and told them not to do anything. They shut everything down at that point.

I think there's a law that prevents insurance companies from doing that.
Adam my conversation go no where I’m starting to think this isn’t for me only been in the industry 2 weeks
so the thing that is killing me is the homeowner will let me do the inspection but it's always someone else has the insurance info, so I end up dealing with the wrong person to begin with.
Shoot! Quick fix: Ask early on (to qualify your prospect). Before I hop on the roof, may I ask what insurance carrier you have? -- If they can't answer, find out who is in charge :)
Same this last week I’ve gotten up on 10+ roofs but was only able to close one roof out… (and that was with my boss lol)
The signed contingency must have the insurance info and all the detailed info of a particular homeowner with his/her information registered at the insurance company, otherwise don't get up on the roof.
"Would you like to hear how we can help you with this process?" After you show pictures of damage
So as a potential customer I now know that tricks are being pulled on myself and others. Good to know!
So you say tricks, but really - there is a need there, right? If someone has damage, there is that need.
But it's still a dance. It's still a yes or a no - depending on how a customer feels, what they see, who they sense you are.
So, you say "tricks", I say a sales method.
I am not trying to argue with you but just trying to share how the good roofers and the honest roofers feel...
Yes, there's a lot of shifty, shady guys out there and that's what is unfortunate! Very.
hey it's your roof bro, you and your family live under it, not the roofing company.
Always been curious… when a homeowner asks if I want something to drink, I say “sure, that sounds great! Thank you!”
They say:
“Ok, I’ve got this, this and that!”
Do I want to be selective? Or should I say “whatever is easiest for you?”
I know it sounds small, but being selective gives them the impression that I know what I want and I have a goal. That’s how I feel anyway.
Any suggestions?
Adding to that, if they offer coffee or espresso, but it’s not made… take it?
That, to me, says they are comfortable with you.
True?
@@jeffdyrland2795 If they offer, you should accept it just like you would at a friend's house :) Doesn't matter if it's made or not. They want you to be happy and comfortable - that's why they offered. So take them up on it and express your gratitude :)
He says click here.. there nothing there
