Quick Advice for Roofers Who Are New to Sales
New roofing salespersons may wonder how to get started. This video explains what to do to start right and develop expertise in selling roofing. Most of the advice is applicable to sales of all kinds.

The presenter then goes on to talk about mastering your own thoughts and emotions, stating that your biggest obstacle is between your ears. Finally, he concludes by presenting a formula for roofing sales success.
