ACCA-Arizona opened a new Tucson office last month with an open house celebration. The new location is in addition to the Phoenix office, and is strategically located next to Heating & Cooling Supply - one of our training partners. ACCA-AZ appreciates Jake Young, Branch Manager, Heating & Cooling Supply, Tucson and his team for being a great partner with the development of our new chapter.

The Telephone is Your Livelihood
by Jas Jackson, Director of HVAC for CallSource
The telephone is the most important tool you have when trying to sell an HVAC system. Let's face it, if the phone doesn't ring, your call-handlers won't have an opportunity to set an appointment. If no appointment is set, your team has nothing to install or service. If you don't install or service a system, you won't make any money at the end of the month. The sales process begins with Mr. or Mrs. Customer calling your company and telling you their system needs to be serviced or replaced. As a contractor, there are three little things that can make a BIG difference:
- Know where your leads are calling from
- Ensure that all calls are being answered
- Listen to what is being said over the phone
It's about You not Them!
The first thing you can do to improve your business is track your advertising. More often than most contractors like to admit, they have been convinced by marketers that their advertising campaigns will return a great response rate. You've heard big promises from the Yellow Pages and other media companies alike:
"You'll get more calls if you just spend $300 per month!"
"Our typical Contractor response rates are 10%!"
"Act now, so I can get you the discount you deserve!"
"Hurry before the price goes up!"
