Whether you’re a seasoned customer or a new account, there’s always something new for you at our spring shows. Take advantage of the new opportunities in 2016 by getting up to speed on the latest products, services, and technologies available in exterior building materials at the Wimsatt Spring Show!

There’s no better way to kick off the new business year than to attend a Wimsatt Spring Show. With dozens of the top manufacturers in the exterior building materials industry exhibiting, you’ll discover a wealth of new building products, plus show specials, contests, prizes, dinner and more!

Stop Selling Product; Start Selling YOU Join us for a free workshop on how to use the sales process to differentiate,build trust and increase the homeowner’s perception of value.

Wimsatt is excited to bring you a free workshop that will change the sales culture of your business, featuring IKO’s John DeRosa!

John guarantees a high energy, captivating presentation that will make an immediate and enduring impact on your sales and profitability.

With more than 20 years experience in the building industry, he affords

participants a real-world perspective that makes it easy to grasp his concepts and apply his principles in the field. Over the course of his career, John has facilitated over 250 seminars to more than 12,000 participants. His programs have already helped thousands of contractors enhance their sales skills, increase closing percentages and reach new heights of profitability.

Roofing contractors spend far too much time talking about the brands they use and not enough time promoting the reasons why they should be the contractor of choice for the project. This approach makes it very difficult for the contractor to differentiate and in the end places much more pressure on the contractor’s price.

What you can expect from the seminar: » Asking powerful questions that build trust and establishes a project plan

that speaks to the best interest of the client. » Crafting a “Company Story” that causes the prospect to think they’d have

to be crazy to choose anyone but you for their project. » Asking Commitment Questions to summarize the company story and gain

the prospect’s agreement on the suitability of using your company. » Creating buy in and increasing value by involving the homeowner in the

product.
