Grumpy,
O.k. then, I see your selling style and can still help. I have a very large sales team and I'll let you in on a secret nobody else here uses or even knows of that is a tremendous tool. You'll need a laptop (old, new, used doesnt matter) and a digital camera. (there about a hundred bucks if you dont have one). Now, when policing the roof my men take pictures of the trouble spots as well as from accross the street and in front of the house. The digital camera will plug into the laptop and the pictures you have taken will appear on the screen much, much larger than trying to look at them on the little screen on the camera. Very big and very clear.
G.A.F. has a c.d. you can get that will allow you to show the customer every shingle available in your specific area. Now Mr. and Mrs. Jones picks a green, red, blue...30 year 40 year 50 year ect. You will have the picture of their house from the front yard on your laptop screen and with a click of a button the G.A.F. program will put whichever product they have chosen on their house. Right their infront of their eyes. They can then pick and choose different years and colors to see which they like best. Its fun and exciting for the customer. The program allows you to also change the color of the paint on their home as well as trim. It also lets you change stucco to brick with different colors and styles, BUT, the roofing part is enough. THis laptop presentation will secure more closes for you. I compete daily with Home Depot and Lowes as well. They concentrate on financing, and thats what they sell, not roofs. They dont even use this.
