Develop, Train & Retain the Best Personnel

There is a substantial labor shortage in our industry which shows no signs of stopping, and as a result, most companies are finding it difficult to hire qualified people – – specifically sales personnel and skilled laborers.

If you are a business owner or executive in the home improvement, remodeling, or home services industry, keep the following in mind:

  • Continued material shortages and price increases will require a greater level of customer service than ever before
  • Over 35 million skilled laborers have retired in the last two years – – most have not been replaced
  • Most sales training programs are too short, leading to immediate re-training or turnover – – or too long, causing them to look elsewhere at jobs where they can earn more (and more quickly)
  • In 2022, you must value a hire the same way that you value your leads
