$850K in Residential Electrical Sold & Installed in Valparaiso, IN: How Electrician Kevin Braun Shares His Service Call Process
Kevin Braun is an electrician for Amps & Volts Electric in Valparaiso, IN. Kevin is an absolute superstar, as he sold AND installed $850K in residential electrical work in a small, largely rural market. (And the year before, he sold and installed $750K!) In this interview, Kevin shares his entire service call process. Kevin does a masterful job of educating and closing homeowners, while not applying any sales pressure. The key to his success is customizing each job to fit the life, health, and safety needs of each customer. With Kevin’s process, he gets very few objections because homeowners build their options with Kevin. It’s no surprise that he does so well. This is a great interview for technicians or salespeople who are leery about selling. Sales doesn’t mean pushy. Sales means listening, observing, educating, giving options, and taking great care of your customers.
