How do you approach construction sales in a more strategic way? In this solo episode, I will walk you through steps on how to grow your business and build long-term business relationships with your potential customers by having them know, trust and like you. This is a first in a series of episodes that I’ll do over the next few months on a strategic approach to construction sales.

In this episode we cover:
- People purchase from people that they: know, trust and like.
- KNOW - 3 ways to get to know a potential project partner: get your face in the place, drop the ego, and persist.
- TRUST - 3 practical ways construction executives can build trust: start small, be responsive, add value.
- LIKE - 3 keys to being someone other people like: be an equal, be helpful, be yourself.
- Key takeaways of the podcast:
- Act: Make a list of 10-20 top clients or target clients
- Ask: Do they know, trust and like me and/or my company
- Decide: What can you do in the next 30 days to build your relationship with each of your top 10-20 clients.
In construction, you don’t need to learn “1001 ways to close a deal”. Instead, you need to be able to empathize, have a desire to win, welcome rejection, be optimistic, balance relationships, results and ego.
