In just three intense hours (11am-2pm EST) ...

SFS Director of Training Steve Toburen will supercharge your phone closing techniques! You (and your staff) will learn 100’s of 'Lead Conversion' tips to close the sale on any medium including texts, Facebook, email, Yelp, etc!

  • WHO should attend? Cleaning and restoration business owners, managers, and any employee that answers customer’s “How much?” questions.

  • WHY do I need this? Your ‘lead conversion strategies’ are essential! And yet too often ignored! (Right now you and your staff are likely peeing away way too many leads that could be ‘converted’!) This online SFS program will quickly add huge downstream profits to your company.

  • HOW MUCH? $149.00 (You’ll more than pay for your entire seminar when you book your next “I’m just checking prices…” lead!)

This course has been approved for (3) IICRC CECs.

Are you sick and tired of agonizing phone calls like these?

1. Your lead asks: “Hi, I’m just checking around to see how much you charge for…?” 

Your reply! “Uhhhh….”

Fail to ‘convert’ this potential client and you’ll lose $1,000.00’s in ‘downstream profits’! Or…

2. You quote a price and your prospect says, “Hmmm… let me check with my husband and I’ll get back to you.” 

Meekly respond, "OK" and you’ll NEVER hear from them again! 

What should you say to save this job? Or…

3. You hear: “Wow… I see ads where I can get my whole house done for $99.00 and you want HOW MUCH?” 

How can  you ‘defend’ your pricing AND convert this prospect into a ‘High Profit Client’?

In his SFS: Winning over your caller! seminar Steve will share guaranteed solutions to the profit-crushing issues above and so much more including…

  • NEW! Five essential SFS: ‘Lead Conversion' Core Principles for a cleaning or restoration contractor! 
  • Why you don’t need to (and probably shouldn’t) answer your business phone 24-7!

  • NEW! A COVID-inspired script for a ‘no-contact’ over-the-phone video pre-inspection option’. NOTE: This ‘hybrid pre-inspection’ gives you all the benefits of an on-site pre-inspection… right from your own office! (No more time stuck in traffic!)

What Students Say

"Steve is the king of the ‘customer service experience’"

Jeremy Reets; Champion Cleaning Systems Reets, Sharpsburg, GA

The online seminar was well done, and I picked up good points. (As I expected!) Steve is the king of the ‘customer service experience’! I enjoyed Steve’s wife, Sioux, being involved with the program.

"The extra nuggets Steve shared have the potential of increasing my earnings by 20-30%!"

Rusty Zoeller; Restore Pro Sandusky, OH

SFS: ‘Winning over your caller’! reinforced what I already do. But the extra nuggets Steve shared have the potential of increasing my earnings by 20-30%! Steve was natural and unpretentious while the real-life examples he shared were extremely helpful. ‘Winning over your caller’ will help our company culture if all our employees sign on!

"Steve is lively, energetic and a great teacher!"

Mike Lamunyon; Lamunyon Dry Out Clay Center, KS

Steve is lively, energetic and a great teacher! The information in ‘Winning over your caller’ on how to create Customer Cheerleaders was enjoyable and practical.

"Steve has a ton of experience, is very enthusiastic and held my interest well"

Kevin Kluth; Pinnacle Eco Clean Rochester, NY

‘Winning over your caller’ complements previous SFS programs I’ve attended. (There is always something new to implement in business!) Steve has a ton of experience, is very enthusiastic and held my interest well. This online seminar will renew your commitment on installing systems to motivate employees while increasing your profits!

"It's fantastic to tap into Steve's decades of knowledge and value"

Audrey Falls; Distinctive Cleaning & Restoration Fort Wayne, IN

After an SFS seminar, I always count on taking away something practical I can implement the same day. Today was no different with so many 'golden nuggets'. It's fantastic to tap into the decades of knowledge and value that Steve provides and to chat with the attendees afterward so we can all help each other grow.

"Step-by-step instructions ... not vague ideas"

David Harley; AdvantaClean of Badgerland, Mequon, WI

Steve's SFS material gives you step-by-step instructions - not vague ideas - I LOVE it!

"I was able to turn what would have been a 30 sec phone call with a lost lead into ... a new client"

Joseph Corcoran; Kleening Made Affordable Oxford, PA

Thank you, Steve, for this morning's SFS: 'Winning over your caller' online seminar. By using your process for the "how much?" question, I just booked a $650 cleaning job! Yesterday, I would have blown this call! Today, with your techniques still very fresh, I was able to turn what would have been a 30 sec phone call with a lost lead into a 16 minute conversation with a new client. THANK YOU!!!!! I'm looking forward to your next SFS: 'Hiring the Very Best' online training. Have a tremendous day!

This SFS class will sell out quickly.
