Maximizing Peak Season Profits

This dynamic two-day online workshop is designed to prepare you for the critical air conditioning season. As an HVAC service company, the period from approximately mid-May through August is your prime time, like Black Friday is to retailers. It’s crucial to have the right tools, inventory, training, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) in place to fully capitalize on this golden window of opportunity.

This can’t-miss seminar will dive into a comprehensive array of topics tailored to prepare you for a successful peak season. From human resource management and hiring best practices to technician efficiency and the ultimate truck stock list, we’ve got you covered. We will refine your pricing strategies to ensure profitability. We will cover the essential tools (some will surprise you) and critical training needed to boost sales and reduce callbacks. James will discuss his famous “Think Like an Airplane Mechanic: a Diagnostic Approach” philosophy towards service work that will supercharge technician sales.
