About this episode

Adam Bensman shares his top three money-making sales lessons learned during his first year in roofing sales.

My 1st year of roofing sales was off to a brutal start… I knocked for about 6 weeks with nothing to show for it until this happened. It was my first money-making lesson, and it happened while I was sitting in my truck pouring sweat and trembling with anxiety. I made you this new video to tell you the story and share the 3 lessons I learned during my 1st year of roofing sales that made me successful. I’m sharing this with you to help you be as successful as possible without making the same mistakes I did. So be a hero and share this video with your entire sales team. P.S.
