WEBVTT

00:00:03.205 --> 00:00:04.285
Hello, hello, hello.

00:00:04.285 --> 00:00:10.095
Welcome back to yet another episode of Electric Printer Secrets, the Electricians podcast.

00:00:10.095 --> 00:00:21.431
We're on episode 242, another episode in this million dollar launch series, and we're on the Loop Method, part 2, which is all about this future solutions component.

00:00:21.431 --> 00:00:22.963
What does that stick around?

00:00:22.963 --> 00:00:23.446
Find out.

00:00:23.446 --> 00:00:27.289
We've got some very important, a few topics to actually go through today.

00:00:27.289 --> 00:00:41.128
I'm your host, clay Neumeier, with me, as always, my esteemed co-host, joseph Lucani, and we are the Electric Peneurs just a couple of master electricians with business addictions here and ready to serve you with our freemium daily coach call.

00:00:41.128 --> 00:00:43.292
That's right, it's free.

00:00:43.292 --> 00:00:52.865
So sit back in the hot seat, take everything we give, just promise to take action and report your wins back to us so we know it's working for you too, joseph, how are you doing today, brother?

00:00:53.859 --> 00:00:55.066
I'm doing really good this morning.

00:00:55.066 --> 00:01:03.667
My feet are currently being cooked off by a nice space heater as we enjoy a enjoyable cold snap and everything's freezing and covered in ice.

00:01:03.667 --> 00:01:08.362
But life is good and I am a happy man doing what I do best.

00:01:08.362 --> 00:01:10.227
What about you, my friend Nice?

00:01:10.227 --> 00:01:10.909
How's your day going?

00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:13.587
Yeah, canadian winters, man, lots of indoor time.

00:01:13.587 --> 00:01:15.466
I'm also downstairs in my office.

00:01:15.466 --> 00:01:26.531
I do not have a heater under my desk, but I do have some nice slippers Keeping my feet cozy, brother, I'm pumped up for this episode because again we're diving into the loop method stuff.

00:01:26.531 --> 00:01:53.228
I love the loop method, not just because it's named after us and we made it and it's only here and it's unique and it actually helps electricians serve without coming across salesy not only for those reasons, but because of these future solutions that it provides that repeat business, with repeat clients engaging in repeat transactions, which to me is a win, win, win For you, for your staff and for your clients.

00:01:53.228 --> 00:01:54.602
So who could argue with that?

00:01:55.620 --> 00:02:04.989
I can't think of anyone, and I actually, just in real time, thought of another title that would really work with the situation, because they're also futuristic solutions.

00:02:04.989 --> 00:02:09.711
They're solutions that, if you were to look at them, they're not common in today's industry.

00:02:09.711 --> 00:02:23.986
They're not common in the industries that we're used to coming up in, but instead, if you look at how a service company is supposed to operate, on paper, all of these things are in place and it's serving the electrical company of the future.

00:02:24.687 --> 00:02:25.348
I like it, man.

00:02:25.348 --> 00:02:27.913
Good start, Good start Building up some curiosity.

00:02:27.913 --> 00:02:37.317
So yesterday we talked about, in part one, the seven components we already knocked off for in pricing, trips, deposits and financing all important things.

00:02:37.317 --> 00:02:42.752
Today we're talking about options, membership and warranty.

00:02:42.752 --> 00:02:45.328
Oh my God, these are so big.

00:02:45.328 --> 00:02:48.250
First and foremost, let's kick it off with the options.

00:02:48.250 --> 00:02:52.407
As people have come to realize, we tend to suggest six.

00:02:52.407 --> 00:02:56.115
It's not really six options, is it?

00:02:57.481 --> 00:02:58.063
No, I mean.

00:02:58.063 --> 00:03:17.627
What it really comes down to is it's a range between three buyer archetype categories and being able to say, regardless of where the customer typically makes on purchasing, they'll always have a choice between one of two in those archetypes, such as a premium buyer, a mid-range buyer and an economy buyer.

00:03:17.627 --> 00:03:34.729
So it's not six of the same, it's instead two, two and two, so that, no matter what your customer's mental image of the project's going to look like, you can have something better than what they thought it was going to be and have something worse than what they thought it was going to be.

00:03:34.729 --> 00:03:41.102
And regardless, when they can control the prices, they win and you win because they've chosen you.

00:03:42.540 --> 00:03:44.266
And every choice is a great choice.

00:03:44.266 --> 00:03:45.544
I love this so much.

00:03:45.544 --> 00:03:53.887
We've talked about this till we're blue in the face, honestly, if you're hearing it for the first time, please stick with us on this one, because options are huge, huge, huge.

00:03:53.887 --> 00:04:06.465
I mean, maybe one of the biggest success pieces we see is just in the again from yesterday, like people stepping into the value, claiming that value, standing true with integrity and serving at the highest level.

00:04:06.465 --> 00:04:07.367
With six options.

00:04:07.367 --> 00:04:14.949
I mean, if you do those things, everything else tends to when you build enough trust and it goes well just be a landslide victory.

00:04:14.949 --> 00:04:17.146
I mean massive, massive, massive.

00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:22.091
So, if I heard you right, we're talking about two options for three buying archetypes Correct?

00:04:22.091 --> 00:04:26.665
Can I tell you what I love about this, please do.

00:04:26.665 --> 00:04:31.029
Most electricians are trying to qualify by ballparking price over the phone.

00:04:31.029 --> 00:04:36.930
Oh yeah, instead we're creating a win, win, win.

00:04:36.930 --> 00:04:45.620
That third win being the clients in any buying archetype that they may be, so long as they can afford us, even at our lowest economy level.

00:04:45.620 --> 00:05:03.386
Then we've got a client in front of us and we've got a roadmap with all the other options that we laid out, because sometimes just sometimes other stuff goes wrong for them and or trust builds after we talk a time or two and serve them once, and they decide you know what?

00:05:03.386 --> 00:05:05.836
Let's put that other thing on the schedule too.

00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:07.440
You know.

00:05:07.440 --> 00:05:10.810
There's one additional thing as well, because I love everything you're saying.

00:05:10.810 --> 00:05:17.569
Your points make complete sense, but I also want to speak to the person in the background that's already tuning us out because we're not listening.

00:05:17.569 --> 00:05:20.966
Okay, I want you to listen up, because this is actually going to be really helpful for you.

00:05:20.966 --> 00:05:30.786
Too often we go to the home and we make an assumption on what they're going to buy based on what we see, and I can tell you that I was that guy as well.

00:05:30.786 --> 00:05:48.062
I had gone to homes with three feet of grass in the front yard, with the blue tarps on the roof, with the car on blocks in the driveway and mentally said that they're not going to buy, only to have that exact type of customer look at my top option, circle it and hand it back to me.

00:05:48.062 --> 00:05:58.110
And the best part about it was when I asked why she said because no one else offered this and I know what the house looks like and I wanted it to be done right.

00:05:58.110 --> 00:05:59.483
You're the only one who made that offer.

00:06:00.107 --> 00:06:03.468
So let's use you and if anyone looks right, it's us right.

00:06:03.468 --> 00:06:05.045
Like that's the point of the loop method.

00:06:05.045 --> 00:06:11.526
We've got all our ducks in a row from the time they called Now to the time we're articulating that value in person.

00:06:11.526 --> 00:06:13.550
It's been entirely congruent.

00:06:13.550 --> 00:06:19.684
I'm literally picturing ducks in a row right now, joe, so, so, so important.

00:06:19.684 --> 00:06:21.963
So I love that you said that, I love that you brought that up.

00:06:21.963 --> 00:06:24.024
Options, man, options.

00:06:24.024 --> 00:06:33.524
Now the other things that we're going to talk about today tie perfectly into this, because it's not just options, it's also the memberships.

00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:36.543
Memberships are big.

00:06:37.194 --> 00:06:45.684
So if we're talking about the futuristic as you said solutions, how important is it now to tie memberships into this whole loop method piece?

00:06:46.555 --> 00:07:02.427
So the thing that I love about membership so much other than the fact that they're really not very common in the electrical trade they're huge in ATAC, they're huge in plumbing, but they're really not very big in electric is because what it does is it does one, it's a great value adder.

00:07:03.194 --> 00:07:12.685
But the second and the more relevant to this conversation is that it allows you to become their preferred person before they'll even entertain working with anyone else.

00:07:13.694 --> 00:07:27.976
So to put in perspective, what that means is that when our memberships, we let them know that there's no diagnostic charges, meaning that no matter what they want to call us for, we're going to go and also the fact that we're given the priority service, meaning they go right to the front of the line.

00:07:27.976 --> 00:07:45.098
So if a customer is in a situation where they're entertaining doing something, wouldn't it make sense both for them and for you that they're going to go and work with the person, that it doesn't charge them to go out, and then, even more so, that we're rolling a sit down and do designs with them, whether they want to use us or not.

00:07:45.098 --> 00:08:00.079
It's your job to lose now, because if they already like, trust and respect you and you're already into me, they're familiar with their home and you already know they're buying archetype, and then you could present the solutions because they brought you in first and probably the only one who comes in.

00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:05.785
You now have a lifetime customer who has a vested interest in seeing you succeed.

00:08:07.798 --> 00:08:08.380
I love it, man.

00:08:08.380 --> 00:08:09.223
Great points.

00:08:09.223 --> 00:08:21.982
Now I've seen resistance around the memberships in a couple of places, but one of the suggestions that we make and I would definitely take to this one as well in our million dollar launch is introducing this club membership from the moment.

00:08:21.982 --> 00:08:25.600
People call Correct why is that important, do you think?

00:08:26.675 --> 00:08:37.427
So the worst thing that someone can feel is that they're being upsold on something, which is why, in our process, the very first thing that we're saying is so, are you a first class past member?

00:08:37.427 --> 00:08:40.441
And a lot of times someone's going to be like, well, what is that?

00:08:40.441 --> 00:08:42.905
Don't worry about it, we'll get to that later then, totally fine.

00:08:42.905 --> 00:08:45.980
I just ask because if you were a member, you would have had that answer.

00:08:45.980 --> 00:08:47.443
Sure, no problem, don't worry about it.

00:08:47.443 --> 00:08:51.957
I just want to make sure that you're in the right position into their mind that this is a thing that exists.

00:08:53.394 --> 00:09:02.259
Then a second time, towards the end of the call, at the end, where you get ready to schedule them, you bring up the benefits of how they can get from the line status and how they can have diagnostics, waves and all those other perks.

00:09:02.259 --> 00:09:17.284
Then, when it gets brought up again by the technician in his options that's the third time they've heard about it Even more so let's say they didn't buy the third opportunity they're going to call you again and they're going to hear are you a first class past member?

00:09:17.284 --> 00:09:18.863
So it's a loop.

00:09:18.863 --> 00:09:25.008
It continuously feeds itself, because every time they call, they hear about it, and every time you come out.

00:09:25.008 --> 00:09:25.763
They hear about it.

00:09:25.763 --> 00:09:28.768
It just becomes easier for them to just become a member at that point.

00:09:29.881 --> 00:09:30.563
I love that man.

00:09:30.563 --> 00:09:31.668
Really good justification.

00:09:31.668 --> 00:09:36.029
Now the third piece then we'll tie all of these together being warranty.

00:09:36.029 --> 00:09:40.990
I feel like a lot of electricians make a mess of this opportunity.

00:09:40.990 --> 00:09:43.749
Warranty is something we've got to talk about.

00:09:43.749 --> 00:09:50.990
Ironically, even for us in our million dollar launch, it's come kind of late, because we're at a stage where we're already doing work.

00:09:50.990 --> 00:09:53.849
If someone asked us, well, what's our warranty?

00:09:53.849 --> 00:09:55.967
We may not have had a proper answer yet.

00:09:55.967 --> 00:10:02.046
We may have said, oh, we just match the material warranty, the equipment warranty, which is usually what?

00:10:02.046 --> 00:10:03.389
One year, right.

00:10:03.389 --> 00:10:26.886
So if you are only offering a one year warranty at this point, or it's not articulated yet, a I'm not trying to embarrass or call you out or cast shame, I would never want to do that but B I want you to know that there's a massive opportunity here to again leverage this futuristic, the future solutions, and the loop method helps with that too.

00:10:26.886 --> 00:10:30.308
So why is warranty so important in your mind, joe?

00:10:30.308 --> 00:10:38.826
To extend and have a greater process, I guess, is the word I'm looking for with your customers.

00:10:39.568 --> 00:10:39.970
No worries.

00:10:39.970 --> 00:10:43.830
So it really thrives if you look at it in its absence.

00:10:43.830 --> 00:10:47.147
So I'm going to create two scenarios and we're going to do a pro and con.

00:10:47.147 --> 00:10:47.609
Is that cool?

00:10:47.609 --> 00:10:48.751
Yeah, all right.

00:10:48.751 --> 00:10:56.626
So scenario one you called, you went to a customer's home two, three weeks ago and you put up a ceiling fan for them.

00:10:56.626 --> 00:11:05.325
Everything's perfect, it's not wobbling, it's got our patented dust free fan installation and everything that goes with it.

00:11:05.325 --> 00:11:06.942
Great, they're happy.

00:11:06.942 --> 00:11:07.826
They sign off, they're done.

00:11:07.826 --> 00:11:10.724
Two weeks later they call and they say hey, the fan's not working.

00:11:10.724 --> 00:11:12.250
What's your warranty?

00:11:12.250 --> 00:11:14.078
Well, what I'm going to do is I'm going to.

00:11:14.078 --> 00:11:17.947
There's a charge for us to come out, but if it's something related to us, we'll take care of it.

00:11:19.221 --> 00:11:24.299
The first thought is that your customers can be like Well, if it's something you did, isn't this warranty?

00:11:24.299 --> 00:11:26.788
Why should I pay for you to do a warranty call?

00:11:26.788 --> 00:11:33.086
It's creates an immediate friction point because they wouldn't have called you if they thought it was their fault.

00:11:33.086 --> 00:11:41.005
They're calling you because I think it's your fault and by you immediately leading with it's probably not us and therefore I'm going to have to charge.

00:11:41.005 --> 00:11:43.268
But if it is us, I'll get it back to you.

00:11:43.268 --> 00:11:45.868
No one ever expects you to get it back to them.

00:11:45.868 --> 00:11:52.188
They just expect all right, well, I'm just going to have to pay for a service call On the other side if we were to lead with.

00:11:52.188 --> 00:11:58.388
Well, I'm so sorry to hear that, but once again, that's a huge benefit of working with us because we provide a lifetime crash to guarantee.

00:11:58.388 --> 00:12:05.879
So of course, I'd be happy to come out there and on the odd chance it's something that's not related to us, then we'll talk about it from there.

00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:08.648
But regardless, just know we'll come out, we'll do a full evaluation.

00:12:08.648 --> 00:12:09.811
Happy to help with this.

00:12:11.400 --> 00:12:16.245
Now the customer sees it as one you're not complaining, you're still prioritizing them.

00:12:16.245 --> 00:12:21.152
Two, you're not complaining the fact that you have a warranty, you're letting them know.

00:12:21.152 --> 00:12:26.307
I'm happy to help, because this is why I have a warranty, so it sells them on you working with you again.

00:12:26.307 --> 00:12:36.962
Then, instead of saying, well, on the chance that it is something related to us, we reversed it and say, on the chance that it's not related to us, we'll have to.

00:12:36.962 --> 00:12:42.024
We'll talk about a charge at that point, but for now let's just assume that it's something that we did and we'll take a look when we're there.

00:12:43.620 --> 00:12:49.827
So it's become a much easier way of getting your foot in the door and then you know you didn't do something wrong.

00:12:49.827 --> 00:13:03.250
So then when you can come back down and be like hey, remember when we talked to you previously, we mentioned that the circuit was outdated because it's 1950s home and that you had the cloth wiring in the ceiling and in some of these higher options we recommended changing it to prevent this problem.

00:13:03.250 --> 00:13:09.988
Well, what we're noticing is, because the lines are currently outdated, we're getting a short between these two points.

00:13:09.988 --> 00:13:16.827
Naturally, I can take down this fan and do a maintenance on it, but that's not going to solve the root cause issue.

00:13:16.827 --> 00:13:26.332
Is it wrong of us, if we reopen the options, to discuss this again, or do you want me to just do a temporary fix while I'm here today, so you were able to get back in.

00:13:26.332 --> 00:13:28.546
You were able to serve the customer at the highest level.

00:13:28.546 --> 00:13:34.236
You were then able to better position yourself to upgrade or present future solutions as well.

00:13:34.845 --> 00:13:35.870
It's the right thing to do, man.

00:13:35.870 --> 00:13:44.306
I absolutely love that and something that you called attention to that I want to really highlight this and double underline.

00:13:44.306 --> 00:13:49.467
It is something we see so often is people actually get anxiety when they get a warranty call.

00:13:49.467 --> 00:13:57.434
The entrepreneurs out there are getting nervous about it, like they cannot imagine or attach a positive outcome to warranty.

00:13:57.434 --> 00:14:12.089
That's why I think this is one of maybe the biggest pieces, and what we've noticed in the Loop Method is that when we have this piece just figured out, drawn up on a piece of paper, a process to deal with it just like you've described, we can turn that warranty call.

00:14:12.089 --> 00:14:21.046
Instead of a place of friction and dismay, if you will, it can actually become a happy call, a place where you get to go serve a known customer again.

00:14:21.046 --> 00:14:29.173
You get another opportunity to advance that relationship, and that's the only type of warranty call I want to do, joe.

00:14:29.173 --> 00:14:29.995
What about you?

00:14:31.248 --> 00:14:51.315
Yeah, it makes a lot of sense because I've gone to homes where customers are genuinely upset, thinking that we've done something wrong, and then, when I'm gracefully, gracefully coming in and being like you know, here's the reasons why it's funny, because these are reasons directly tied to the reason why we quoted you for larger solutions, more permanent solutions, more turnkey solutions.

00:14:51.315 --> 00:14:56.107
Would it be wrong of me to represent these options to you, just so you never have to experience this again?

00:14:56.107 --> 00:14:58.871
If you'd like, I can leave it the way it is.

00:14:58.871 --> 00:15:00.567
I have no issue with that, and you chose that option.

00:15:00.567 --> 00:15:01.730
You have complete control over it.

00:15:01.730 --> 00:15:05.914
But is it wrong of me to at least let you know of what's still on the table?

00:15:05.914 --> 00:15:06.888
I?

00:15:07.660 --> 00:15:09.972
love this and now these are just free opportunity.

00:15:09.972 --> 00:15:13.125
Calls for already a customer who's already in your camp.

00:15:15.445 --> 00:15:17.052
So there's a big question that was left out.

00:15:17.052 --> 00:15:19.653
We've covered the big three the options, the membership, the warranty.

00:15:19.653 --> 00:15:27.054
There's a way now that we could tie all this together, because we're talking about repeat business through repeat transactions with repeat clients.

00:15:27.054 --> 00:15:36.529
The big W question here that hasn't been answered is well, when and this is important discussion, right, because there's actually a couple of wins.

00:15:36.529 --> 00:15:52.015
Use A for the people that didn't take us, that are highest, higher options, who have a problem again, likely it's when they need it, in which case we'll have another opportunity to serve again at the highest level, offering what more than they took the first time.

00:15:52.015 --> 00:15:52.626
So what?

00:15:52.626 --> 00:15:58.331
Just like you said with the warranty, so they'll have better outcomes and we'll have more proactive control in the future.

00:15:58.331 --> 00:16:02.273
Or the other one is like, when's it good for us?

00:16:02.273 --> 00:16:12.852
Because if we're truly going for a million dollar launch, that means the other thing we need to do is raise our baseline a bit, and that baseline I'm talking about is those low months where the calls don't quite come in.

00:16:12.852 --> 00:16:13.835
You know what I'm talking about.

00:16:14.416 --> 00:16:18.192
Oh yeah, that's defeating slow season with our extreme passion of mine.

00:16:19.556 --> 00:16:24.475
Awesome, and that's one of the things I love about this loop method because it does that.

00:16:24.475 --> 00:16:27.011
So let's go back and let's say you know what?

00:16:27.011 --> 00:16:28.375
We create six options.

00:16:28.375 --> 00:16:29.288
We ran the play.

00:16:29.288 --> 00:16:31.850
Someone takes us at our top option.

00:16:31.850 --> 00:16:33.788
I love this.

00:16:33.788 --> 00:16:37.153
Without the club membership, we'd be waving goodbye.

00:16:37.153 --> 00:16:38.770
It was nice to know you.

00:16:38.770 --> 00:16:41.610
It was great to identify that you are our top customer.

00:16:41.610 --> 00:16:44.457
Trust in all right, goodbye.

00:16:44.457 --> 00:16:51.448
I hope we run into each other again, but with the membership we get to serve them again Now in slow season.

00:16:51.448 --> 00:16:57.466
This gives me some ideas for prioritizing the order at which I even reach out to people.

00:16:57.466 --> 00:17:08.436
Do the annual inspections follow up for even warranty inspections or even technical advances with our known good, trusting clients?

00:17:09.326 --> 00:17:09.828
Exactly.

00:17:09.828 --> 00:17:35.244
It's a huge factor because, when you think about it, the winter seasons are usually our typically slowest months, but it's also the best months to come back and do inspection calls because, from a very legitimate concern of well, when things get cold, connections separate, you're more likely to find a problem before it even presented to the customer, in the time when you'd be least likely to have calls on the board.

00:17:35.244 --> 00:17:42.028
But you're face to face with someone who likes trusting, to respect you and you're able to solve a problem while it's still small, before it becomes bigger.

00:17:42.028 --> 00:17:45.031
How does this not help everyone involved?

00:17:46.417 --> 00:17:47.181
It's massive, man.

00:17:47.181 --> 00:17:48.439
It's helping your future.

00:17:48.439 --> 00:17:54.266
It gives your staff that feeling of security, knowing that you've got your poop in a group right.

00:17:54.266 --> 00:17:58.984
It gives everyone this rhythm in your business and that know-how.

00:17:58.984 --> 00:18:16.223
And keep in mind, stepping into this value is not just hard for you, it's going to be hard for every person you train Like nine out of ten people probably more men have this same value problem where they need to step into it and learn that they are valuable.

00:18:16.674 --> 00:18:20.085
We feel it as an apprentice in the trade for the first time, right.

00:18:20.085 --> 00:18:21.718
You feel it as a journey person.

00:18:21.718 --> 00:18:26.281
When you get your ticket and really start doing work independently, get thrown in the fire for the first time.

00:18:26.281 --> 00:18:31.178
You might feel it when you get your master's license and then you're pulling permits for the first time.

00:18:31.178 --> 00:18:36.145
All these firsts just create anxiety and that fear of rejection.

00:18:36.145 --> 00:18:52.307
So this loop method is going to help your whole team benefit from that Step into the value, know they're doing exactly the right thing and absolutely rise to the value of your relationships into this long-term future and these solutions.

00:18:52.307 --> 00:18:53.578
Man, this has been massive.

00:18:53.578 --> 00:18:55.842
Let's jump into some action items if we can.

00:18:56.636 --> 00:18:57.601
Sounds great, and so forth.

00:18:58.154 --> 00:18:58.896
You want basic today?

00:18:58.896 --> 00:19:00.921
I can take either one.

00:19:00.921 --> 00:19:01.742
Do you want one you prefer?

00:19:01.742 --> 00:19:02.765
All right, go basic.

00:19:02.765 --> 00:19:05.275
I'm going to follow you up and it's going to be big man.

00:19:05.275 --> 00:19:07.122
So be ready to hang on to the all-star today.

00:19:07.122 --> 00:19:09.823
Hold on to my seats, right, okay?

00:19:10.714 --> 00:19:16.699
So the basic really comes down to understanding how memberships work and understanding how warranties work.

00:19:16.699 --> 00:19:25.903
The reason being is that you need to be in the mindset of your customer experiencing a problem in order for you to articulate it the proper way.

00:19:25.903 --> 00:19:28.778
Imagine you had an issue like.

00:19:28.778 --> 00:19:29.840
We're all electricians here.

00:19:29.840 --> 00:19:30.542
Everyone is listening.

00:19:30.542 --> 00:19:36.086
I assume you're a sparky, so let's take it outside of our trade and let's say sake of argument, it's cold.

00:19:36.086 --> 00:19:36.999
We all agreed it's cold.

00:19:37.355 --> 00:19:42.182
Your heat doesn't turn on and you were now needing to call someone who recently did work in your home.

00:19:42.182 --> 00:19:45.481
What would you, the customer, be experiencing?

00:19:45.481 --> 00:19:47.460
Would you be hoping you're able to reach them?

00:19:47.460 --> 00:19:49.881
Would you're hoping that they're going to be able to come out?

00:19:49.881 --> 00:19:53.383
Are you hoping that they're not going to be charging or trying to upsell you on things?

00:19:53.383 --> 00:19:57.281
Your customer experience is the exact same three gears.

00:19:57.281 --> 00:20:10.701
So if you can be in that mindset as you design and start implementing your warranties, what you'll find is that your technicians are better empowered to serve the client because they understand exactly the mindset they're trying to prevent.

00:20:10.701 --> 00:20:22.201
So it's not just running the play, it's knowing the play from both angles of the line from you, the technician and the customer looking from the outside in.

00:20:23.917 --> 00:20:25.718
Massive, that's massive man.

00:20:25.718 --> 00:20:30.726
You may have more weight than the all star, I'm just kidding.

00:20:30.726 --> 00:20:32.057
I want you to continue.

00:20:32.057 --> 00:20:33.723
Actually, from yesterday's episode.

00:20:33.723 --> 00:20:35.461
I want you guys to articulate this.

00:20:35.461 --> 00:20:37.181
That's honestly what we do in the program.

00:20:37.181 --> 00:20:54.875
We write all these things down on what we call a perfect offer worksheet and literally you'd have this written out so you know, your whole team knows, and what you're going to do as an all star in having that articulated is attach it to your values and your why and we've got some more work coming up on that in the coming episodes.

00:20:54.875 --> 00:20:57.163
But I want you to start with what you know already.

00:20:57.163 --> 00:21:02.720
That's what we would do, because I want to actually attach some stories to it and how valuable these have been.

00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:23.303
Just like we presented with stories and that great articulation for value of why you would want to implement this loop method in your business, you'll want that story and why attachment to train your staff and when you do that correctly with stories, you're going to be able to move people in a way that is absolutely unmatched.

00:21:23.303 --> 00:21:27.743
Some of the industry experts have said this in the past.

00:21:27.743 --> 00:21:45.384
I have to reiterate this Using those values, the why and these loop method things figured out so that we can continually deliver this message, for that win, win, win is going to be absolutely critical to your success.

00:21:45.384 --> 00:21:47.307
Crucial man, it's massive.

00:21:47.307 --> 00:21:48.931
Joe, we're out of time.

00:21:48.931 --> 00:21:50.078
Is it cool to wrap this up?

00:21:50.078 --> 00:21:52.459
By all means, I feel like you've been on fire, brother.

00:21:52.839 --> 00:22:04.964
All right, this has been another episode of Electric Pinner Secrets, the Electricians podcast, where me and my friend Joe just keep showing up trying to help you master your sales, simplify pricing and deliver premium level electrical service.

00:22:04.964 --> 00:22:07.962
Joe, these two episodes have been no exception.

00:22:07.962 --> 00:22:10.678
Dan's doing it, he's rocking it.

00:22:10.678 --> 00:22:12.881
We've got a million dollar launch to compete with.

00:22:12.881 --> 00:22:18.272
This is only going to get better as we now get into CSR and again this, why?

00:22:18.272 --> 00:22:19.796
And that value articulation.

00:22:19.796 --> 00:22:20.416
Brother, you ready?

00:22:20.416 --> 00:22:22.279
I'm so pumped, I can't wait.

00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:23.661
All right, see you on the next one.

00:22:23.661 --> 00:22:24.082
Bye.
