Eight years later — Crown Champion at his family's Pennsylvania roofing company with $2 million in personal sales his first full year. Mostly replacements. Plus a few full-house exterior packages topping $100K. Mast Roofing & Construction in Oley, PA has been around 30 years — Seth's dad started it. Seth grew up putting together sales folders in the family barn, mowed the property when his dad finally built a real building, and went full-time on a roof crew at 18. A year of installs. A year as a repair tech under Mast's top performer. And almost by accident, he slid into a sales seat when another rep wouldn't run a townhome. Eight months later — Crown Champion. By twelve months — $2M sold. In this conversation, you'll discover: The 3-option close he learned in CertainPath's Service Essentials class — and why it ends every pitch Why he never pre-judges a trailer (or a mansion) — and what to look at instead The "30 minutes on the pictures" inspection that doubles as authority-building The mold-decking story he uses to pre-empt the attic objection before he ever walks upstairs The single line — "if you had this shingle on here, I would probably not be sitting right now" — that handles cheap-shingle objections in one sentence His first-question close: "They've already decided. It's just when and who." Why his close ratio jumped 10% the first time he went to a CertainPath training Whether you're a roofing rep trying to break your first $1M, a sales manager building a training program, or an owner trying to understand what makes a young rep close like a veteran — Seth's process is a masterclass in education over pitching. 🎧 Watch now on YouTube or listen on your favorite podcast platform.
