Want to SCALE your construction biz? Book your strategy call here: https://tpb.tools/pod-call  Your sales process is probably what’s costing you projects - not your building skills or your pricing. In this episode, we reveal the five critical mistakes builders make during their first prospect interactions that cost them thousands in lost contracts over time. We break down a proven triage call framework that helps construction businesses position themselves as the expert, uncover client motivations, and build the confidence needed to win more profitable jobs. You’ll also learn why "speed to lead" matters so much in construction, how to use "minimal encouragers" to dig deeper into a prospects needs, and why having a visible checklist creates instant credibility.  We go on to explain how to create micro-commitments that make the final decision feel natural, and share specific strategies for addressing common concerns around timelines, budgets, and financial security.
