Description:
In this episode, Roger shares a story that cost a colleague $3,200 — and it all comes down to one thing: charging a measuring fee. If you’ve ever been ghosted by a client after doing a site visit, this one’s for you. We dig into why collecting a fee upfront protects your time, your expertise, and your bottom line.
Roger also shares extra insights not included in the blog post, like how this simple strategy filters out tire-kickers and attracts serious clients who value your work. Whether you're a seasoned installer or just getting started, this episode might be the mindset shift you need.
🧠 What You’ll Learn:
- Why offering free site visits is not a smart business move
- How a $3,200 mistake taught this dealer to set boundaries
- Scripts and strategies for introducing your measuring fee
- The surprising benefits of charging upfront
- How this fee builds credibility and trust — not resistance
✨ Bonus: Roger shares exclusive behind-the-scenes stories and real-life client interactions that aren’t in the blog.
