We have been in business since 1995. I have never had a sales team and we have never knocked on doors. We have had moderate success. Now my youngest son has joined our business and possible that my oldest son may come back to the business. It's time to grow. I have never (mostly never) supplemented any projects unless they were glaringly wrong. I enjoyed this video and have shared it with my team. Thanks.
With the whole insurance will drop you for your ugly roof is prime door knocking gold. Door knocking is awsome if done correctly. Prep for canvas advertising and aim for sales.
Becca is amazing!!.. she has taken the time to talk and answer questions anytime I have had one.. Very approachable, besides knowledgeable.. She has Red Bull on the veins and its contagious.
I wonder if anyone realizes that the customer is the one who actually ends up paying for greed in the end! Higher deductibles etc. I have never seen so many 2% deductibles in my 28 years in this business, I wonder why!
My biggest obstacles would be time and money. My husband and i just started our business and there are only 3 of us right now a family business. The business became official yesterday and now in trying my hardest to learn all the tricks to the trade. My husband and his cousin have been roofing together for 5 years under the table and we have finally taken that big step. Dmitry again thank you for the videos, my husband is Mexican first generation immigrant and your accent helps him understand your videos.
Purchased 1 of Becca's courses a few months back. Tons of info and I still haven't completed it yet. Kind of cherry picking from the lessons included in "Advanced Sales & Supplement Training Program" My favorite part of this section is the email approach to supplements. Completely eliminated the back and forth arguments with the adjusters for supplements. Thank you both for taking the time to make this!
The insurance company most do everything in writing, naver call them on the phone. No where in the policy does it say it need 16 hail damage hits. The insurance company has to put in the policy.
I watched Beccas videos early in my first year. Her data was the catalyst for my exponential growth in this industry! Invest in yourself and get great !
I got to this channel because my neighbor is doing a roof claim. His troubles got me thinking. I got to this video because I am in sales and a corporate trainer. Becca nails the reason what it takes to win at ANY sales. Everyone needs a beneficial/value reason to play on the same team. Everyone needs to win. When followed up with communication and a goal, how can you not win.
The reason why we haven’t bought another course is mainly because we are been screwed before buying courses online. I’m sure there are great courses out there but to much crap in social media that makes it hard to filter through and find what we really need.
Another excellent video. I am licensed public adjuster in Michigan and 3 other states with 10 years experience. Still learning how to overcome insurance tricks to not pay legitimate claims and missed Xactimate line items. Keep learning. Elena Wilson Xmate Mastery is the Best!
Great interview. Most of the paid programs seem to hold back information. They hit on some big points which gives anybody listening what they think they have been missing out on from past experiences. If the course gives the know how its worth it, most dont.
I've always been hesitant to buy a course because there are just so many out there. But I very well may buy Becca's soon! She has quickly become a favorite roofing mentor of mine. It was a fun day, the day she accepted my LinkedIn connection! I'm the most inspired by the fact that she's a tattooed woman in roofing, like I am. I'm very inspired by you, Becca and hope to actually meet you one day. You too, Dmitry! I regularly send both of your UA-cam videos to my team members.
I am sceptical because of previous experience. # 1 reason for not completing a course. If Thursday morning is the training and i have an adjustment pop up on Thursday morning or bombarded by calls I get distracted and maybe unable to act on whatever learning I missed on. Especially if it's a Thursday morning call that was live and then you missed it and can't go back to it. Best thing in a course for me today would be able to access all the information on my time.
That's why I have made my online courses so people can go at their own pace. One thing I've found to be helpful in implementation is literally scheduling a small window of time into my day where I will do it. That might be in the evening for 30 minutes or first thing in the morning.
We do great at door knocking, leads from the internet, getting on roofs and supplementing. Where we fall down is getting clients to sign contracts. Our guys are putting a lot of emphasis on the inspection being no cost on obligation. Then we get months down the road and the client gets other bids despite us warning them that the most expensive roof is the cheap one that leaks.
My main roof is cover by insurance, but the flatter roof that was incorrectly done was not cover. A contractor put shingles on flat (angled a little)roof. Is it possible to get this covered by insurance
The biggest reason why I have not purchased courses is fear that they don’t work or they are gimmicks. I am sure many other feel that way. It seems like there many gimmicky sales pitches on social media and can muddy the waters.
Great feedback, but I want to challenge you: let’s say you buy 4 $500 courses. 3 of them are waste of money and horrible but one helped you double your business. So you paid $2000 and double your business. Half of the money you will spend on online education will be wasted. Problem is you don’t know which half.
It can definitely be a gamble, but when you have hundreds of consistently tangible, quantifiable results from others who have implemented the course, it makes it MUCH easier to place faith in the investment.
This is literally our number one problem as we speak. We hired 2 companies, 1 didnt go hard enough and charged 20%, and the other was so unprofessional he was writing for valley metal when there wasn't any valleys on the roof. Also when ins companies pushed back or wouldnt pay,,he would threaten them with "our legal department". He would argue with ins in a very unprofessional way on our behalf and make us look like scumbags, He Held up every claim, ins companies were laughing at us and when they would see this guys shit come through, and like I said when they wouldn't pay, he would threaten them with our legal department,and not tell anyone and let it sit in limbo, because he pre charged his $250. We are a 5 star extremely ethical company and need an ethical supplement company to work or or the right training platform... Also Job nimbus definitely helped with tracking his emails and being able to track what they were doing. Great topic man
Had a supplement company we hired to supplement and invoice for the job based on the supplement. They refused to invoice for anything that wasn't approved. They would only invoice for what was already approved... Like remind me what did I hire you for....
There's a right way and a wrong way to do everything. Unfortunately many companies have never had formal guidance in best practices for anything, so they cut corners, lie, cheat, etc. Learning what items you can add legitimately, knowing what to say, and how to negotiate with adjusters professionally is a game changer! You can learn more here --> roofsalesmastery.com/supplementing-xactimate-guide/
Sick to my stomach realizing I don't make time for this training! Just closed on a 30k job and knowing in my gut it could have been 40k and the worst is the home owner was treated like garbage by State Farm. Brb I'm gonna go throw up.
I’m definitely not trying to step on anyone’s toes ...BUT, now that I have that out-of-the-way..lol.. Becca and Roof Sales Mastery is something You CAN Start Doing Right this Second!!! and still supplement plenty of items.. EXAMPLE= once you begin tear off, there could be a 2nd or 3rd layer of shingles AND Valley Metal. AND a P.W.I. CITY PERMIT FOR $900.. You see what I mean , alot of supplements needed but just need to show themselves possibly.. ..along with Alena Wilson’s XM8 Mastery.. IF I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN THEIR COURSES SOONER I COULD HAVE PROBABLY PAID FOR A HOUSE... CASH!!... off of the Supplements/ & Initial Claim $ Increase Alone from how much they both taught me with STRATEGY & MISSING ( / IMPROPERLY ACCOUNTED FOR (“REPLACE”, But should be “Rem.&Rep.”)) LINE ITEMS.... YOU WONT REGRET IT!!
It is only getting worse out here in Texas. My average increase when I supplement is 85%. That does include missed damages. I am not a contractor but I work with a lot of them. Please contactors go get training, please get training. Without it you do not know how to properly look for the items on your inspection that are going to bump the price of that job way up.
In regards to customer writing letter to insurance company regarding a denied claim, why not produce a video with homeowner that can be sent to insurance company. Video would explain with proof why claim should be approved .
Everyday homeowners have a choice to make from whom to buy a homeowners policy from. If they view a video from a company that is unsympathetic to approving a claim, chances are they will buy from a competing insurance company. Going the extra mile in helping a homeowner get a claim approved is good for business. Video sells, private non public letters or emails not so well in convincing an insurance company to approve.
It was nice listening to you both I always tell the customer when they say how much is it going to cost for me to replace my roof and I say its going to cost you one thousand dollars and you will have a new roof thats cheap write how is that possible because thats what your deductible is so thats what your paying for a new roof
My thought on your question of why people dont take courses, I honestly Think It’s Intimidation, and Confidence. For those who know what I’m talking about let me tell you I’m 22 years Old I Started My Home Improvement Business About 2 years ago but before that I went to school for HvAc now I was a very scared person I didn’t have a lot of confidence but one hot summer day I was very exhausted and I was on my lunch Break at work and the Idea of Being an HvAc technician poped back into my head after few years of always talking about but never doing it and as soon as I got off of work I went straight to school and asked and at the time I wasn’t making much money I had a few hundred dollars and I remember I went ahead and asked to apply and they had a payment program and they needed a deposit to start the process and I Went ahead and did it and i was left with 50 dollars and I was thinking to myself how I was going to have to make it with 50 for the rest of the week . Every since then I’ve gotten more confident and one thing led to another now I have my small business and it’s going very well . If your really interested in those courses they talked about just have confidence and do it . Thanks For These Videos Sir Keep Up The Amazing Work !
The biggest reason for me not purchasing courses is honestly my lack of time but mostly confidence. What if I spend money on something and “I” can’t make it work. Then I am a failure. I know that mindset sucks and I’m doing my best to get away from it. I will overcome that especially with the assistance and knowledge gained by whom I believe to be such powerful industry leaders as Becca and Dmitry. I did purchase the training packet from (Diamonds In The Sky) and honestly it’s entirely my fault for not even reading it. I get so busy as a business owner and wearing way too many hats has consumed me and most of my time. However, most of the time I spend in hindsight end up being spinning wheels! I plan on going through Becca‘s entire course then insisting my team does as well. I respect both Becca and Dmitry highly. Obviously they know what they are doing. Becca has others best interest in mind or she wouldn’t be doing what she is doing. Same goes for Dmitry. These two are doing great things. Thank you both. Stay blessed.
Brandi, Brent Simmons here, I completely understand. I run my own roofing business, AND I am a part of roofing insights and STILL I have a hard time keeping up. You just have to make time to do it and learn. Any time I take time to watch videos and take courses, I end up learning stuff and getting better at running my business. You just have to take the first step. Take care!
Glad you enjoyed the content Brandi - One thing I've found to be helpful in implementation is literally scheduling a small window of time into my day where I will do it. That might be in the evening for 30 minutes or first thing in the morning.
Roofing Insights agreed! I know all of us have at least 30 minutes a day. I love watching both Becca and Dmitry and have for over a year now. Hope to continue for a long time
Thank you for every interview you do and the time you put into it. I always pick up something that I can use or think about in a different perspective. Kudos
Can I get a covid discount please? Got 32 roof i havent gotten the final check for but want to invest in the training. Going to try and get Steve as well. Just saving up for it both. Second year in business and taxes gave me a beat down. Didn't get over head and profit on nun of them. smh.
I just coming out of the sub shell, Im working right now on getting my specialty roofing lincese for commecial, I dont do commecial but I have a few small 20 sqr jobs that are commecial. What im saying, I was ignorant of all this education that are out there for roofing industry. I was so busy doing other contractors job, that I totally forgot about branding my business, right now im on budget cuz of course, I didnt do good on managing my finances. I just a customer who send me his claim which i dont know exactly what is going on.
Definitely intrigued and looking to hear more. I think we will start to outsource our supplements. Not finishing courses has to do with time. Delegation is so important but as a small business and just starting out having time to do everything needed to keep the company going is an insanely large task and time is hard to come by. I’ve watched many of her videos and this interview has a lot that helps explain to me about her and her business. Seems legit!
Thanks for all the great UA-cam content you both put out, I learn a ton nibbling around the edges. Without this basic knowledge I would be so much further behind than I am. I know I would get my money’s worth with one of Becca’s programs, or other educational programs, but just never pulled the trigger. I even talked to Becca about her program my first week on the job last summer and was sold, and then I got slammed with work and could barely keep my head above water. Coming from a salaried job for 15+ years there is just so much that is unknown about the seasonality of the income and how to budget, especially when you have a family, mortgages, etc. Spending money on anything besides gas is difficult for me. Keep up your hard work...it helps us green horns more than you’ll ever know!
Glad you dig the content, Matt - One thing I've found to be helpful in implementation is literally scheduling a small window of time into my day where I will do it. That might be in the evening for 30 minutes or first thing in the morning.
Thanks for having Becca on here, I really love her knowledge and energy. God awarded we with an extra dose of ADHD and it's very difficult to follow most people on You Tube Channels because they can't deliver content and cut to the damn chase. You and her both deliver and that's why your so successful because most contractors have this also. When Becca mentioned that people were coming to her at the first seminar is a great example of what I'm talking about. Keep the great info coming, I love Roofing Insights.
I’ve been waiting for this collaboration! I’ve been following her for some time now. I got level one xactimate certified back in 2012. I don’t think she was on UA-cam yet. She showed up on the scene in 2015 or 16’ maybe?
It’s most likely because I’m not educated enough. I have my business gmail account I watch your videos from as well . It’s Justin Richard Roofing . Could you inform me of your next Roofing Conference and I will gladly fly there and attend it !!! Thank you. My name is Justin Richard. My company name is Justin Richard Roofing LLC
They definitely "allow" supplementing in LA - I have clients down there! Check out the program here -- it'll show you everything you need to know to begin getting results --> roofsalesmastery.com/supplementing-xactimate-guide/
I could use your expertice. Im soooo green to insurance claims. Thats a bonus for you to whip into shape.(a shape you can create) And a negative. But . Sometimes i feel its to above me. To reach out for help and waste your very valuable time.. i live in central NewYork and have one wind damage clam to submit to allstate this week. I might be naive and think clams are rare around here... please prove me wrong. Teach me.. so i can grow, and someday pass the knowledge onto the next intrigued roofer . Maybe my own son or daughter or my employees. And Not have the (Smeagol) mentality. From lord of the rings. . And hord all it for myself. This would make my father very proud as well, seeing me step up to the plate and swing away. . If i dont get the opertunity for this win... thrust me . I have grown leaps and bounds from the both of you. . Thank you!!. And know the lil roofer from clayville looks up to you.
Hi! I'd be happy to point you in the right direction of mastering the supplementing piece of the puzzle. Check out these programs here -- I've dumped EVERYTHING I know in here and most contractors are averaging a $2500-4500 increase per claim across the board implementing my method. --> roofsalesmastery.com/supplementing-xactimate-guide/
Do not “outsource” the supplement. Learn how to write an estimate correctly. Why give money that you earned to a company that’s never even been to the loss site or pounded one damn nail…
Biggest reason I haven’t bought the courses is because no one answered back to me after I messaged the number you posted Dmitry in one of you’re videos.
Becca is an expert in her field. Her systems and advice gives contractors a fighting chance against the Goliath insurance companies. And she's easy on the eyes! That doesn't hurt. 😁
"The Game?" Both of these people are the worst type of human beings. If someone needs a roof, it's ok to help a homeowner. If your motivated by financial gain and self interest than you are a "CROOK". Simple.
never have been motivated by money, give away thousands. But if you are in business you have to focus on profit and overhead and not be stupid. I don't believe in money driven business but also don't believe in being broke either.
@@roofsalesmastery If I buy a hamburger, the price is listed on the menu minus the sales tax. If I order something using Amazon Prime, I probably have a monthly subscription fee for my services to be expedited or access to content. If I need my roof replaced, I can get a dozen quotes from roof sales people who will quote the job and attempt to get every penny possible from my insurance company to inflate the claim/commission. The job will get subcontracted to a local team of exploited workers. The salesman gets their unearned/overpaid commission, the contractor gets their premium for their second-rate assigned work. Wash, rinse, repeat. The crookedness is evident, you're an opportunist. I sold a clothing line to Saks in 2007 for 25.3 million (my counter was the tax). Prior to that, every designer and label was copying my styles and finishes, hundreds of sales reps and distributors wanted access and exclusivity, Ed Hardy (the brand) signed a development deal. I generated 130+ million in fashion sales from 2003-2007 as a MBA student and kindergarten teacher. I started a web development firm in 2007 and have created dozen's of apps and scripts that are used all over the web, in Salesforce, Job Nimbus, eCommerce site and beyond. I create, innovate, think different. I develop tools to build, scale, save time and money. You two sell mediocre courses and exploit the property of others. I actively create innovation that removes the need for scummy salespeople, your both so full of it, that your not even paying attention. There's are many of us dedicated to giving purchase power and choice to the consumer. We did it in the music industry, in real estate, eCommerce, doing it in car sales and the list grows. It wont be long before an app will eliminate a need for a roof salesman all together Teaching others how to crook by getting line items on a claim is not a skill or profession, it's a scam, I'm pretty sure any 5th grader can understand and process, and even then I don't think its something to aspire to do as an adult. The problem is, if your not doing it or teaching someone, there's going to be someone to take your place right now. Not all business is ethical and both of you can't tell me you don't cheat and are completely honest in your practices, it's all over your faces and saying "businesses are in business for financial gain" is repulsive, especially to someone who went to business school. All together no real value to society, but your greed will keep doing the same thing, till it's gone.
@@cre8tivexchange Dude, the literal definition of business is "noun. an occupation, profession, or trade: His business is poultry farming. the purchase and sale of goods in an attempt to make a profit. a person, partnership, or corporation engaged in commerce, manufacturing, or a service; profit-seeking enterprise or concern." I don't know what to tell you, bud. But good luck out there.
@@roofsalesmastery Defining business "the noun" does not make the tactics ethical or honorable. Its your intention and the words you glorify to "sell" an insurance company. Why is it so hard to just get your customer a roof. Your intention is to maximize your profit as a broker. Your service is deceitful because you will not disclose your tactics to the homeowner or the agent. SMH. What you are essentially doing is gambling. You will never understand, cause your too far gone. Good luck to you as well.
@@RoofingInsights3.0 ,you're making it sound insulting when it's not, it's just an observation if you know what that means. I've got nothing but love for her, I've watched all her videos so if you do the same you'll know the basis of my observation , got it?
Roofing Insights lol meaning she was going at it bro. Passionate about the industry she was talking nonstop about it. Cmon. You never heard someone say “breath” when they are passionately speaking
@@CloneDanMan thanks for explaining. I have heard it but not often enough and its first time I see it in comments, now I will now. Thanks for explaining
As my favorite thing in life Poker would say, “I call”. December. Orlando. Me and you bro lol. First I will need a pass to get in and don’t wanna pay 600 bucks. Free pass for me equals 10k for you. Great odds.
@@RoofingInsights3.0 Your channel actually provides solid content to help new contractors and even homeowners. Her videos on UA-cam are always a tease to get people to pay for her products without providing any real content or value. You are right- it is not quite a scam but certainly deceptive and not valuable to viewers. Her service may be worth the investment but I certainly am not interested. Keep up the great work. The interview with your top residential sales guy was a great episode.
Things would go far more smoothly if.. Homeowners did not start off with the idea of.. im not paying my deductible or.. some of this money will be mine. Really wish things were more regulated, or only licensed above board contractors were allowed to do insurance work.
she is the best wow
Im learning more from becca than my own trainer 😂

You made a video with storm chaser dude!
I have adjusters who tell me, they will approve our claims, as long as we don’t supplement.
You knew he would bring up his muscles at some point.
Becca is amazing!!.. she has taken the time to talk and answer questions anytime I have had one.. Very approachable, besides knowledgeable.. She has Red Bull on the veins and its contagious.
Small company for now, haven't been able to save enough for all the info I need to get.
I wonder if anyone realizes that the customer is the one who actually ends up paying for greed in the end! Higher deductibles etc. I have never seen so many 2% deductibles in my 28 years in this business, I wonder why!
Wow wow wow. Thank God for both of you 😭😭😭I don’t even have words. Blown away. So helpful.
My biggest obstacles would be time and money. My husband and i just started our business and there are only 3 of us right now a family business.

Like everything you had to say my daughter should follow it help her big time
The insurance company most do everything in writing, naver call them on the phone.
No where in the policy does it say it need 16 hail damage hits. The insurance company has to put in the policy.
Great point.
In fact most use the Xactimate guideline if the carrier is using Xactimate.
8-10 hail hits per 10x10 test SQ
Yes, because once it's in writing it can become official court document.

In regards to customer writing letter to insurance company regarding a denied claim, why not produce a video with homeowner that can be sent to insurance company. Video would explain with proof why claim should be approved .
I m sure insurance company would not like to see videos like that posted to You Tube and used as marketing against them.
There are plenty of videos like this but insurance companies spend billions on advertising and buying politicians so it doesn’t bother them
Everyday homeowners have a choice to make from whom to buy a homeowners policy from. If they view a video from a company that is unsympathetic to approving a claim, chances are they will buy from a competing insurance company. Going the extra mile in helping a homeowner get a claim approved is good for business. Video sells, private non public letters or emails not so well in convincing an insurance company to approve.
It was nice listening to you both I always tell the customer when they say how much is it going to cost for me to replace my roof and I say its going to cost you one thousand dollars and you will have a new roof thats cheap write how is that possible because thats what your deductible is so thats what your paying for a new roof
My thought on your question of why people dont take courses, I honestly Think It’s Intimidation, and Confidence. For those who know what I’m talking about let me tell you I’m 22 years Old I Started My Home Improvement Business About 2 years ago but before that I went to school for HvAc now I was a very scared person I didn’t have a lot of confidence but one hot summer day I was very exhausted and I was on my lunch Break at work and the Idea of Being an HvAc technician poped back into my head after few years of always talking about but never doing it and as soon as I got off of work I went straight to school and asked and at the time I wasn’t making much money I had a few hundred dollars and I remember I went ahead and asked to apply and they had a payment program and they needed a deposit to start the process and I Went ahead and did it and i was left with 50 dollars and I was thinking to myself how I was going to have to make it with 50 for the rest of the week . Every since then I’ve gotten more confident and one thing led to another now I have my small business and it’s going very well . If your really interested in those courses they talked about just have confidence and do it . Thanks For These Videos Sir Keep Up The Amazing Work !
I should be right here with you guys. SMDH The miracles kids bring, but how significant others can hold you back.
The biggest reason for me not purchasing courses is honestly my lack of time but mostly confidence. What if I spend money on something and “I” can’t make it work. Then I am a failure. I know that mindset sucks and I’m doing my best to get away from it. I will overcome that especially with the assistance and knowledge gained by whom I believe to be such powerful industry leaders as Becca and Dmitry. I did purchase the training packet from (Diamonds In The Sky) and honestly it’s entirely my fault for not even reading it. I get so busy as a business owner and wearing way too many hats has consumed me and most of my time. However, most of the time I spend in hindsight end up being spinning wheels! I plan on going through Becca‘s entire course then insisting my team does as well. I respect both Becca and Dmitry highly. Obviously they know what they are doing. Becca has others best interest in mind or she wouldn’t be doing what she is doing. Same goes for Dmitry. These two are doing great things. Thank you both. Stay blessed.
Brandi,
Brent Simmons here, I completely understand. I run my own roofing business, AND I am a part of roofing insights and STILL I have a hard time keeping up. You just have to make time to do it and learn. Any time I take time to watch videos and take courses, I end up learning stuff and getting better at running my business. You just have to take the first step.
Take care!
Glad you enjoyed the content Brandi - One thing I've found to be helpful in implementation is literally scheduling a small window of time into my day where I will do it. That might be in the evening for 30 minutes or first thing in the morning.
Roofing Insights agreed! I know all of us have at least 30 minutes a day. I love watching both Becca and Dmitry and have for over a year now. Hope to continue for a long time
Thank you for every interview you do and the time you put into it. I always pick up something that I can use or think about in a different perspective. Kudos
Thanks Brian! Have we met? Tell me something about what you do? Dmitry
Can I get a covid discount please? Got 32 roof i havent gotten the final check for but want to invest in the training. Going to try and get Steve as well. Just saving up for it both. Second year in business and taxes gave me a beat down. Didn't get over head and profit on nun of them. smh.
I just coming out of the sub shell, Im working right now on getting my specialty roofing lincese for commecial, I dont do commecial but I have a few small 20 sqr jobs that are commecial. What im saying, I was ignorant of all this education that are out there for roofing industry. I was so busy doing other contractors job, that I totally forgot about branding my business, right now im on budget cuz of course, I didnt do good on managing my finances. I just a customer who send me his claim which i dont know exactly what is going on.
Always brand yourself! You’ll get there. Thanks for following
Definitely intrigued and looking to hear more. I think we will start to outsource our supplements. Not finishing courses has to do with time. Delegation is so important but as a small business and just starting out having time to do everything needed to keep the company going is an insanely large task and time is hard to come by.
I’ve watched many of her videos and this interview has a lot that helps explain to me about her and her business. Seems legit!
delegation is the key to scale
Check out CSS here, Jason --> roofsalesmastery.com/outsourcing-supplements-for-roofers-insurance-claims/ - hope that helps you get started!
Thanks for all the great UA-cam content you both put out, I learn a ton nibbling around the edges. Without this basic knowledge I would be so much further behind than I am. I know I would get my money’s worth with one of Becca’s programs, or other educational programs, but just never pulled the trigger. I even talked to Becca about her program my first week on the job last summer and was sold, and then I got slammed with work and could barely keep my head above water. Coming from a salaried job for 15+ years there is just so much that is unknown about the seasonality of the income and how to budget, especially when you have a family, mortgages, etc. Spending money on anything besides gas is difficult for me. Keep up your hard work...it helps us green horns more than you’ll ever know!
thank you for your support!
Glad you dig the content, Matt - One thing I've found to be helpful in implementation is literally scheduling a small window of time into my day where I will do it. That might be in the evening for 30 minutes or first thing in the morning.
Excellent segment! Thanks
Great interview
Investment is totally worth the money
Becca is great and has taught me so much in the last few years. I highly recommend her systems.
Thanks for sharing feedback Jim, much appreciated!
Glad you enjoyed it, Jim! Thank you for the kind words as well. :)
I DIDN'T KNOW THEY WERE FOR SALE
Well now is the best time to start!
Comment below what stopping you investing or finishing online training courses. Winner will get one hour of zoom training with Becca
Thanks for having Becca on here, I really love her knowledge and energy. God awarded we with an extra dose of ADHD and it's very difficult to follow most people on You Tube Channels because they can't deliver content and cut to the damn chase. You and her both deliver and that's why your so successful because most contractors have this also. When Becca mentioned that people were coming to her at the first seminar is a great example of what I'm talking about. Keep the great info coming, I love Roofing Insights.
God awarded me with extra dose of ADHD 😂😂😂😂
Thank you for the great feedback, Jim and I'm really happy you dig my teaching style and content. :)
@@RoofingInsights3.0 ^^^ Let's choose Mr. Jim White :)
She’s sharp ! I like the 17 min about contractor and home owners! They have to be in the same team . Great video !! Thank you 🙏
That’s the key!!! Home owner and contractor must work together
Glad you like it Dariusz
I’ve been waiting for this collaboration! I’ve been following her for some time now. I got level one xactimate certified back in 2012. I don’t think she was on UA-cam yet. She showed up on the scene in 2015 or 16’ maybe?
We have been trying to get together for years too
😄 I started putting out RSM content in 2014! Glad you enjoyed the interview, Derrick. Thanks for watching.
Sir , I’m learning from you. I’m from Lake Charles, LA . They do not let us supplement hrre
Sorry to hear that
It’s most likely because I’m not educated enough. I have my business gmail account I watch your videos from as well . It’s Justin Richard Roofing . Could you inform me of your next Roofing Conference and I will gladly fly there and attend it !!! Thank you. My name is Justin Richard. My company name is Justin Richard Roofing LLC
Roofconference.com, buy tickets on site. Early bird discount ends July 31, hope to see you at conference
They definitely "allow" supplementing in LA - I have clients down there! Check out the program here -- it'll show you everything you need to know to begin getting results --> roofsalesmastery.com/supplementing-xactimate-guide/
Exelente primos
Dmitry, I love your content. I always learn so much. Thank you for adding value to our industry!
Thank you for support brother!!! Love what I do, gives me opportunity to learn to and to live my dream life as well!
I could use your expertice. Im soooo green to insurance claims. Thats a bonus for you to whip into shape.(a shape you can create) And a negative. But . Sometimes i feel its to above me. To reach out for help and waste your very valuable time.. i live in central NewYork and have one wind damage clam to submit to allstate this week. I might be naive and think clams are rare around here... please prove me wrong. Teach me.. so i can grow, and someday pass the knowledge onto the next intrigued roofer . Maybe my own son or daughter or my employees. And Not have the (Smeagol) mentality. From lord of the rings. . And hord all it for myself.
This would make my father very proud as well, seeing me step up to the plate and swing away. .
If i dont get the opertunity for this win... thrust me . I have grown leaps and bounds from the both of you. . Thank you!!. And know the lil roofer from clayville looks up to you.
Thanks for reaching out! What’s your company name? Are you in our directory by chance? Let me know how I can help. Dmitry
Hi! I'd be happy to point you in the right direction of mastering the supplementing piece of the puzzle. Check out these programs here -- I've dumped EVERYTHING I know in here and most contractors are averaging a $2500-4500 increase per claim across the board implementing my method. --> roofsalesmastery.com/supplementing-xactimate-guide/
I’m a public adjuster in Florida. I found this video interesting. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Do not “outsource” the supplement. Learn how to write an estimate correctly. Why give money that you earned to a company that’s never even been to the loss site or pounded one damn nail…
Great interview - don’t agree with everything shared, but good information!
7:34 he already knows...
Dimetri - keep your integrity bud.
Dmitry
Idea get rid of the commercials. Get sponsored by someone instead.
get UA-cam red, its worth it
Go sell roofs to home owners , but they have no money, so the go after the insurance companies
Snake Farm and Allsnake*
both are the worst sneaks and they will bite, stop feeding them!
Biggest reason I haven’t bought the courses is because no one answered back to me after I messaged the number you posted Dmitry in one of you’re videos.
Sorry about that, can you text “school” to 612-559-4881, Dmitry
On a side note all our info is available on roofing-school.com
Insurance companies and banks have the biggest buildings
yes they do. Also construction companies who know how to work with them
Becca is an expert in her field. Her systems and advice gives contractors a fighting chance against the Goliath insurance companies. And she's easy on the eyes! That doesn't hurt. 😁
be careful
Ha! Thanks Paul. Glad you dig my content. :)
I need becca
Comment answer to trivia question at the end
I didn't last until the end yesterday, watching it again to the end.
You can check out all my stuff at www.roofsalesmastery.com ! :)
we all do.
Greedy! Cha Ching Mr. Home owner you just went from a 1% deductible to a 2% deductible!
What was she saying in the first 12 seconds? Sounded like Joe Biden gibberish.
It’s called intro
@@RoofingInsights3.0 lol
"The Game?" Both of these people are the worst type of human beings. If someone needs a roof, it's ok to help a homeowner. If your motivated by financial gain and self interest than you are a "CROOK". Simple.
never have been motivated by money, give away thousands. But if you are in business you have to focus on profit and overhead and not be stupid. I don't believe in money driven business but also don't believe in being broke either.
All businesses are in business for financial gain. That's the point. Profit does not equal crookedness.
@@roofsalesmastery If I buy a hamburger, the price is listed on the menu minus the sales tax. If I order something using Amazon Prime, I probably have a monthly subscription fee for my services to be expedited or access to content. If I need my roof replaced, I can get a dozen quotes from roof sales people who will quote the job and attempt to get every penny possible from my insurance company to inflate the claim/commission. The job will get subcontracted to a local team of exploited workers. The salesman gets their unearned/overpaid commission, the contractor gets their premium for their second-rate assigned work. Wash, rinse, repeat. The crookedness is evident, you're an opportunist.
I sold a clothing line to Saks in 2007 for 25.3 million (my counter was the tax). Prior to that, every designer and label was copying my styles and finishes, hundreds of sales reps and distributors wanted access and exclusivity, Ed Hardy (the brand) signed a development deal. I generated 130+ million in fashion sales from 2003-2007 as a MBA student and kindergarten teacher. I started a web development firm in 2007 and have created dozen's of apps and scripts that are used all over the web, in Salesforce, Job Nimbus, eCommerce site and beyond. I create, innovate, think different. I develop tools to build, scale, save time and money. You two sell mediocre courses and exploit the property of others. I actively create innovation that removes the need for scummy salespeople, your both so full of it, that your not even paying attention. There's are many of us dedicated to giving purchase power and choice to the consumer. We did it in the music industry, in real estate, eCommerce, doing it in car sales and the list grows. It wont be long before an app will eliminate a need for a roof salesman all together
Teaching others how to crook by getting line items on a claim is not a skill or profession, it's a scam, I'm pretty sure any 5th grader can understand and process, and even then I don't think its something to aspire to do as an adult. The problem is, if your not doing it or teaching someone, there's going to be someone to take your place right now. Not all business is ethical and both of you can't tell me you don't cheat and are completely honest in your practices, it's all over your faces and saying "businesses are in business for financial gain" is repulsive, especially to someone who went to business school. All together no real value to society, but your greed will keep doing the same thing, till it's gone.
@@cre8tivexchange Dude, the literal definition of business is "noun. an occupation, profession, or trade: His business is poultry farming. the purchase and sale of goods in an attempt to make a profit. a person, partnership, or corporation engaged in commerce, manufacturing, or a service; profit-seeking enterprise or concern." I don't know what to tell you, bud. But good luck out there.
@@roofsalesmastery Defining business "the noun" does not make the tactics ethical or honorable. Its your intention and the words you glorify to "sell" an insurance company. Why is it so hard to just get your customer a roof. Your intention is to maximize your profit as a broker. Your service is deceitful because you will not disclose your tactics to the homeowner or the agent. SMH. What you are essentially doing is gambling. You will never understand, cause your too far gone. Good luck to you as well.
She gained weight and some tats.
That’s not nice thing to say to a woman!!!
@@RoofingInsights3.0 ,you're making it sound insulting when it's not, it's just an observation if you know what that means. I've got nothing but love for her, I've watched all her videos so if you do the same you'll know the basis of my observation , got it?
She looks better w the weight in my opinon
@@johnpierce4778 absolutely, except for the tats, i don't like tats on a woman.
Didn't ask for anyone's opinion on my own body, but thanks.
Smells like balls? Really?😂😂
Omg. Does she breath lol.
what was that about?
Roofing Insights lol meaning she was going at it bro. Passionate about the industry she was talking nonstop about it. Cmon. You never heard someone say “breath” when they are passionately speaking
@@CloneDanMan thanks for explaining. I have heard it but not often enough and its first time I see it in comments, now I will now. Thanks for explaining
Hey pottymouth,
I can't refer your videos to my clients and religious audience members.
You just lost half your potential audience!
1000 bucks I can beat Dmitry in arm wrestling
I am game, let’s do $10,000
As my favorite thing in life Poker would say, “I call”. December. Orlando. Me and you bro lol. First I will need a pass to get in and don’t wanna pay 600 bucks.
Free pass for me equals 10k for you. Great odds.
I’m $500 for Dmitry
Love the channel but speaking of scammers...why promote the Queen of ClickBait ?
Queen of clickbait? What does has to do with scammers?
@@RoofingInsights3.0 Your channel actually provides solid content to help new contractors and even homeowners.
Her videos on UA-cam are always a tease to get people to pay for her products without providing any real content or value. You are right- it is not quite a scam but certainly deceptive and not valuable to viewers. Her service may be worth the investment but I certainly am not interested.
Keep up the great work. The interview with your top residential sales guy was a great episode.
Things would go far more smoothly if.. Homeowners did not start off with the idea of.. im not paying my deductible or.. some of this money will be mine. Really wish things were more regulated, or only licensed above board contractors were allowed to do insurance work.
