00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.760
It's not about perfectionism anymore.

00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:02.640
It really isn't.

00:00:02.799 --> 00:00:05.120
Now people pay for flawed work.

00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:07.200
Like, you know what's happening in the art world, man?

00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:10.320
People are actually notarizing that they made this thing.

00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:15.679
They painted this thing by hand, and it's worth more than the perfection that AI can provide.

00:00:15.839 --> 00:00:26.320
What used to be the longing for perfection is now becoming the longing for imperfection to recognize where people really put an incredible amount of care and detail into something.

00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:33.679
One of the reasons why some of the classics are so appreciated is because you look at it and say, all right, the brush strokes were done in this particular manner.

00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:37.039
And this actually is an expression of what he's going through.

00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:41.679
Whereas an AI has no possible thing other than input picture.

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.439
Picture comes out, it's stamped, but there's nothing else attached to it.

00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:51.840
Even if the visual is better, the soul is impressive, but if there's no personality and soul behind it, no one's gonna relate with it.

00:00:52.079 --> 00:01:03.759
Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to the Million Dollar Electrician Podcast, where we help home service pros like you supercharge your business and spark up those sales.

00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:12.079
I'm Joseph Lucani, and together with my co-host Clay New Meyer, we're here to share the secrets that have helped electricians sell over a million dollars from a single service band.

00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:14.640
Now it's time for sales.

00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:17.040
It's time for scale.

00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:22.640
It's time to become a million-dollar electrician.

00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:27.599
All right, welcome back.

00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:28.560
Hello, Joe.

00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:29.519
Welcome back, you guys.

00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:37.439
By popular request, we've got another episode going through more leads and getting more leads and how to attract better people to your business.

00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:38.239
And you know what?

00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:41.280
This actually bleeds in beyond just getting new clients.

00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:44.640
It also actually gets you more electricians, too.

00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:51.680
And when you build this killer brand, you could really sit on top of your marketplace like a hyper local hero.

00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:53.680
So we want to help you with that at all times.

00:01:53.840 --> 00:02:11.840
So we're going to give you uh an exact, well, rundown on this from a couple different perspectives today on what's been working for electricians within Service Loop Electrical and what we would consider uh the fastest path to leads and getting service leads now that uh we just keep seeing people crank out.

00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:13.599
So you ready to get into this today, Joe?

00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:14.319
I'm pumped.

00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:21.120
And I love how you started it because literally there's a story I have of how I joined a company from an ad they put out to attract more customers.

00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:24.560
So I'd love to physically get into that one as well because I'm I'm the proof that it worked.

00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:25.840
Yeah, absolutely, man.

00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:27.280
Yeah, it's a huge piece of it.

00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:34.240
And I think really any efforts that put you out in your marketplace typically also make you uncomfortable.

00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:37.520
And that's one of the biggest problems, and we're gonna address that today, too.

00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:48.000
Because uh really at the end of the day, Joe, like no one else is gonna grab the megaphone, climb to the top of this little electric mountain, and cry out their own name like they can, like you guys can.

00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:55.759
So if you're watching, if you're listening to this, uh please know that uh this one is for you and you really need to get the courage.

00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:03.680
And so we're gonna give you some tricks, some techniques, so at least you can spend the most time in the most productive places uh while doing that.

00:03:03.919 --> 00:03:07.439
You know, you mentioned something right off the jump, and I think that's the best place to start.

00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:11.680
Like, I personally am not a marketer, it's not my expertise.

00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:13.360
I can fully admit that.

00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:18.479
But at the same time, I would also like to say, I know exactly how scary it is to put yourself out there.

00:03:18.639 --> 00:03:32.080
Like it's one of those moments where you're like, I need work, I recognize I need work, but I have no idea how to get a lead without looking like a fool in the process or just spending money on the pay-per-click or throwing money at Google and be like, fix my problem.

00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:39.680
So if you're the electrician who's starting out, you don't have a perspective where you think you know everything or you're super confident, where would I start?

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:41.840
I'm the unconfident electrician trying to get a lead.

00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:42.400
What do I do?

00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:45.520
Yeah, I'm even gonna lean in to say this, Joe.

00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:47.680
I love marketing.

00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:52.159
I I love buyer psychology, I love what marketing is.

00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:55.439
I love that I've also faced those challenges.

00:03:55.680 --> 00:04:06.560
Even in this business, when we started it, we were in new territory, and it was nerve-wracking to put ourselves out there as professionals and attract the leads that we wanted to help.

00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:10.080
It's a it's really a frustrating and unnerving thing.

00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:12.080
And I know so many of us share this.

00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:15.840
So, first and foremost, you gotta know there's a golden rule here.

00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:17.600
You're the best.

00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:19.519
You you're the best.

00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:21.839
You have to believe you're the best.

00:04:22.319 --> 00:04:29.680
And I kind of use like uh serenity prayer logic here, Joe, because there's things in my control and there's things outside of my control.

00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:42.399
And what's outside of my control is if anyone else gets hired to do the work that a homeowner or a business owner, whatever, whatever they need, it's totally outside of my control if Tank Top Terry gets that job.

00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:46.240
It's totally outside of my control if Chuck in the Truck gets that work.

00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:48.319
And then what do we do as electricians?

00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:52.879
We tend to go back to our Facebook group and say, God, I just got under bid to crap.

00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:54.160
Someone else got this work.

00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:56.480
Do you guys think my pricing is okay?

00:04:56.879 --> 00:04:59.839
And that whole thing just inspires more fear.

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.399
It's like a self-fulfilling prophecy of low marketing energy.

00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:05.680
Does that make sense?

00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:06.480
It does.

00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:15.120
And you know, I agree with you when you're talking about the serenity prayer because my personal belief is that which is meant to hit you could never miss you, and that meant to miss you will never hit you.

00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:21.759
So, yeah, you may go on top of the mountaintop and cry your name out, but any repercussion that comes after that, it's written for you.

00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:28.000
So if you can go into the acceptance of like, I'm gonna do the best I can, and whatever follows it, that's not up to me.

00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:31.839
But I'm gonna do my best to at least put myself out there and say, I'm gonna at least try.

00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:34.399
Like the very least, I'm gonna put myself out there and try.

00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:35.839
Yep, absolutely.

00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:43.360
So forgive me for spending so much time on the psychology of this early on, but who am I to tell you what to do if you're not even gonna go do it?

00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:46.079
So let's fix the deep-rooted issues first.

00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:58.399
Something I learned from Grant Cardone, actually, when I was coming up and learning marketing, and think what you will of Grant Cardone, the guy's done some pretty amazing things and some kind of silly and stupid things too.

00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:01.759
But I like to take from everyone, you know, Bruce Lee principle.

00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:03.920
Take what works, block what doesn't, make it your own.

00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:15.040
So Grant Cardone taught me something about prospecting, and this one thing really changed and allowed me to speak louder, grab that megaphone and do more.

00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:19.279
And it was that everyone's a prospect, he would say.

00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:20.399
Everyone.

00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:27.040
If you know someone or you have an experience with someone, good or bad, that made you memorable.

00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:31.360
And so you need to be in touch and communication with memorable people.

00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:43.040
So even when I first started, when I decided and unlocked myself, decided to help others, other businesses, not go where I've been, I even reached out to people I fought in high school.

00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:51.759
Like there was literally a guy that I reached out to on Facebook and I said, Hey man, I just wanted to let you know that it looks like you're leaving, uh, living a great life.

00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:53.759
Uh, it looks like you got a family and stuff.

00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:58.399
I didn't spend much time here, but I have been thinking about you and how stupid I was back then.

00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:00.079
I didn't deserve a friend like you.

00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:06.319
So I just wanted to hopefully bury the hatchet and let you know that I have no ill feelings towards you.

00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:09.839
And I hope the same is true for you too 20 years later.

00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:13.839
You are a better man than me because I still want to punch my high school bullies.

00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:19.759
It was a big move because you know what that person sees next.

00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:22.000
Lawyers, teach me.

00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:24.720
Hey, I hey, I took control, right?

00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:30.000
So that apology led to a reply where he said, Well, yeah, no problem, man.

00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:32.639
That's old school stuff, and I'm not concerned about that either.

00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:33.199
Thank you.

00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:35.120
It looks like you're living a healthy life too.

00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:36.319
Wish you the best.

00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:38.160
It was just like that.

00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:43.680
But then you become friends on Facebook, or he sees our ads.

00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:51.519
All of a sudden, this goes from someone who may have been one of those negative reviewers to someone actually paying attention to the journey, going, that's interesting.

00:07:51.759 --> 00:08:02.639
Now, I'm not saying this is where you start necessarily, but prospecting starts with everyone who already knows you, and we shouldn't overlook anyone who has that experience, has that knowledge.

00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:21.519
And that's why we often say that setting up your social medias, your Facebooks, um, for example, has been a heavy one, not the business Facebook page, but your personal Facebook page and the business page and using leveraging your personal page to grow your following and grow their interest in your journey.

00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:23.759
Think of it like reality TV.

00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:34.320
Joe, you might not have ever paid attention to the trend of it, but would you agree that reality TV has blown up and in some ways awfully, but like it's blown up.

00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:38.399
It's one of the most popular things to ever happen for people to watch stories.

00:08:38.639 --> 00:08:46.080
You know, I guess a great example of that is I remember being a kid and being following this hearing the show called Jersey Shore that was out.

00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:49.120
And I'm sitting up like, ah, this is garbage, it's never gonna kick on.

00:08:49.360 --> 00:08:53.039
And they're apparently still doing stuff like 20 years later.

00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:54.159
And I'm like, how?

00:08:54.639 --> 00:09:01.840
Because people get emotionally invested in things, and it's less about the content and it's more about their attachment to the outcome that comes from it.

00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:05.440
The relation of, oh, that could be me, or that's like me.

00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:10.159
That's really the starting part of marketing, and it's the same thing with the reality TV shows.

00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:11.200
Bingo.

00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:17.519
In the last episode we recorded, we talked about how the relation, as you mentioned, and no, like, and trust are so important.

00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:24.559
Well, a business has a lot of trouble gaining that kind of relationship, the no, like, and trust.

00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:30.480
So I like to adjust this phrase and say, people do business with people that they know, like, and trust.

00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:35.279
And so we have to let a person shine through this business entity, your brand.

00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:50.399
Even if, hey, you might hear some scaling and branding experts one day, way down the road for you, and you're approaching multiple seven or even eight figures of business, might say, Hey, we got to get you out of the brand identity and let the brand come forward on its own.

00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:52.159
But that's a totally different beast.

00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:55.039
And if you're early on, you need to leverage your character.

00:09:55.200 --> 00:10:10.720
And that's why we have what we call a Facebook cheat sheet and a content cadence that goes basically character affinity, just meaning relation things like favorite restaurant, favorite tools, uh, cool books you read, things you did with your kids, et cetera, stuff like that.

00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:12.320
But then authority.

00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:24.000
It can't be teacher versus uh students, because no one will ever actually engage with your content if you're always the teacher, you're always the professional, you're always above those people that you're talking to.

00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:24.879
That doesn't work well.

00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:26.159
Does that make sense, Joe?

00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:26.960
It really does.

00:10:27.039 --> 00:10:28.159
I can get where you're coming from.

00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:30.960
At the end of the day, it's you have to be a person.

00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:38.080
And I guess a good example of that is when we first started getting together and working together and all this, I didn't know how to market for life in me.

00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:40.639
And I'm super uncomfortable putting myself out there.

00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:45.519
And yet, you're right, if you don't show the person, no one will believe anything you do.

00:10:45.679 --> 00:10:51.039
So now if you look at my Facebook, it's lightsaber choreography and like me talking about all the nerdy stuff that I'm into.

00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:53.279
And there may be some people who are like, ah, whatever.

00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:56.159
But there's other people who are like, you know, I like that.

00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:57.360
That's me too.

00:10:57.519 --> 00:11:01.840
And now we've got something common that we can share over, and a little bit of the personality shines through.

00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:02.559
100%.

00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:04.480
100%, man.

00:11:04.559 --> 00:11:10.480
And so if you leverage this, if you can shine through, then the only thing you're missing is adding people every single day.

00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:21.679
And if you do this on Facebook and you keep adding people, you're gonna see more and more mutual friends, people that would recognize your name, people that would add you, uh, bonus tip, uh, add realtors.

00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:26.000
They're adding people all the time to social media and just post consistently.

00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.200
Be your own reality TV series.

00:11:29.440 --> 00:11:33.519
If you do that, you're gonna be able to later leverage this in a very big way.

00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:42.399
And even now, the people who truly do care about you are gonna follow your journey and they're gonna feel compelled to introduce you to their electric problems over someone else.

00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:46.159
And that's really the most important piece that we need to get into next.

00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:48.080
You know, I love that.

00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:49.279
I love you're getting into it.

00:11:49.360 --> 00:12:00.240
You know, and I also feel like if you're gonna continue going through that, I think a good sign that you're marketing the right way is when the customer calls you and then they bring up something about you or about your business.

00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:05.600
Like um, if a customer approached me and said, Hey, I saw you were doing in uniform an autism run.

00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:06.399
I think that's great.

00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:08.240
You know, my son's also on the spectrum.

00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:10.159
And now we can share on that.

00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:16.080
But if they didn't know that, they might not even call this in the first place, let alone bond over and make a friend because of it.

00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:17.840
Absolutely, man.

00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:18.559
Absolutely.

00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:19.759
That's really important.

00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:22.080
And we call that organic marketing.

00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:24.720
Organic, meaning it just took a bit of your time.

00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:26.159
It didn't really take money.

00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:29.600
Social media, you may have even heard people call it social marketing.

00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:34.639
I mean, there's so many ads and so many people starting to do this now that it can feel overwhelming.

00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:44.240
But I promise you, people on there are still scrolling on average about 400 feet a day with an average post uh review time of 1.8 seconds.

00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:48.480
So most times, short and sweet wins the race.

00:12:48.639 --> 00:13:00.720
If you're gonna use AI, please know that we did a little uh study in our class where literally 90% of the people put their hand up when I asked, hey, could you recognize AI in text on the phone, et cetera?

00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:11.679
And then the next question I asked them was put your hand up if you feel like this adds value when you recognize it's AI, that you feel they care about you more.

00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:13.840
And zero hands went up.

00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:22.960
Unanimous agreement that when we face AI in our journey each day, we actually feel less cared for, not more cared for.

00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:33.279
So while there's a place for it, while it's necessary sometimes, more on that as we as we go, not in this episode today, it's important to not look like you're over-leveraging AI.

00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:35.200
And this is really simple to do.

00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:46.240
I mean, at this date, if you're not using Chat GPT or have the app on your phone, you're missing a huge, huge potential upside because you can talk to it and it will give you content.

00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:48.720
And this is how I recommend you do content.

00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:53.519
Please do not go to ChatGPT and say, hey, can you make posts for me for the next month?

00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:54.879
I'm an electrician.

00:13:55.120 --> 00:14:02.240
Rather, hey, here's 10 great reviews we just got about our service, and here's the stories that go with them.

00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:04.000
I'll talk to you and tell you them.

00:14:04.159 --> 00:14:11.279
Then please make 10 personalized posts from those or 20 personalized posts from those that sound like me.

00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:14.080
There's a vast difference here.

00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:17.759
And then the next thing I want you guys to do is please get rid of those M dashes.

00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:18.639
I hate these things.

00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:21.919
You know that long dash Joe where you can just tell, oh, that's AI.

00:14:23.039 --> 00:14:27.919
I remember you pointing that out at one point and being like, remember, you always got to make sure that those aren't there.

00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:32.159
I'm like, all right, great, because I know nothing about JPP.

00:14:32.960 --> 00:14:33.519
100%.

00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:36.080
It's not about perfectionism anymore.

00:14:36.240 --> 00:14:37.360
It really isn't.

00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:40.559
Now people pay for flawed work.

00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:43.200
Like, you know what's happening in the art world, man?

00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:53.679
People are actually notarizing that they made this thing, they painted this thing by hand, and it's worth more than the perfection that AI can provide.

00:14:54.639 --> 00:14:56.879
Because people can draw the passion into it.

00:14:57.200 --> 00:14:58.000
Absolutely.

00:14:58.240 --> 00:15:00.320
So we recognize work still.

00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:11.679
What used to be the longing for perfection is now becoming the longing for imperfection to recognize where people really put an incredible amount of care and detail into something.

00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:32.799
You know, when you bring up, I I like I like where you're going with this because if you really go back to the paint analogy, the painting, one of the reasons why some of the classics are so appreciated is because you look at it and say, all right, the brush strokes were done in this particular manner, but at the time he was going through this, and this actually is an expression of what he's going through.

00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:41.919
Whereas an AI has no possible thing other than input picture, picture comes out, it's stamped, but there's nothing else attached to it.

00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:45.120
Even if the visual is better, the soul isn't present.

00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:47.039
And that could be the case with your marketing.

00:15:47.279 --> 00:15:52.240
I can have an ad, but if there's no personality and soul behind it, no one's gonna relate with it.

00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:54.399
Definitely, definitely agree.

00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:58.720
And speaking of ads, I mean, we're all gonna get there one day, especially if you're listening to this.

00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:07.440
One of the barriers to entry that can really help you take advantage of right now is there's still 99% of guys aren't gonna do video.

00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:10.799
They're not gonna do video content, they're not gonna do video ads.

00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:12.559
And you can actually check on this yourself.

00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:19.279
If you want to see if there's video ads or video content, just go to the Facebooks of some of these local businesses around you.

00:16:19.519 --> 00:16:22.480
Look for things like video testimonies with customers.

00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:23.600
You're not gonna see it.

00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:24.960
It's a harder thing to get.

00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:27.039
So very people climb that tree.

00:16:27.120 --> 00:16:28.639
Uh, you're not gonna see ads.

00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:34.320
If you go to Facebook Ads Library, you can actually look up any business's current running ads.

00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:38.559
And I bet you even the biggest companies around you aren't using video ads.

00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:45.360
They might be running a static post, which is just like a picture with some text on it offering some sort of free inspection.

00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:55.840
But I promise you guys, if you get good at these things now, if you'll just suck now and keep working on it now, then what will happen is in a year or two, you're gonna get good at this.

00:16:56.000 --> 00:17:07.519
And the differences you'll notice is things like hey, on our website, we literally have an introduction video that's about four minutes long that explains how we do business here to serve homeowners at a higher level.

00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:09.519
No one else will have that, right?

00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:20.400
On your website, you might have a team section with brief two-minute interviews with each of your staff members, not on all the technical crap, but the stuff that helps you relate to them as a homeowner.

00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:23.599
The stuff that's like, Joe, why did you get into the trade?

00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:24.160
Right?

00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:25.519
What was your journey like?

00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:26.799
What's your favorite meal?

00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:28.160
When's your birthday?

00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:29.599
Uh, what's your family like?

00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:30.559
Do you have kids?

00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:31.519
Are you dad?

00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:34.079
What's your uh obsession with Star Wars?

00:17:34.240 --> 00:17:40.000
These are like fun things that can be video content that help people actually get to know your team.

00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:46.079
And you might be thinking, well, I wouldn't go on a website and start watching these interviews, but okay, wait a minute.

00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:55.759
What if when you book a call with Service Sloop Electrical and we actually set you up with the known tech to come to your house, the specialist that we guarantee is perfect for this job?

00:17:55.920 --> 00:18:01.759
What if we then send you the contact card so you can save it in your phone and recognize when they call or we call?

00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:12.640
But also then in the next communication, there's a link to, hey, by the way, before Joseph gets to your home, we know some people really like to get to know the person before they have a stranger in their house.

00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:15.839
And we do all these cool little interviews with our with our staff.

00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:22.720
And so here's a bio on Joe with his current certifications and specialties, as well as a personal interview that you could check out yourself.

00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:26.720
It only takes 90 seconds, and I trust that you'll get to know Joe uh quite a bit.

00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:29.440
Let me know if you have any troubles opening that up.

00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:36.799
You know, I'm actually a belief, I've been a convert to this because originally I thought it was bullshit, for lack of better words.

00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:38.799
I was like, yeah, no one's gonna care about this.

00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:41.359
And as a result, I didn't think much of it.

00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:45.119
But I started working with an HVAC company that I really, really like.

00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:48.400
But the reason I liked it was the tech was coming.

00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:52.319
I was like, all right, my kids are here, my wife is here, I'm gonna be doing it.

00:18:52.480 --> 00:18:53.759
I may not be present the whole time.

00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:56.000
I looked, I'm like, could I trust this guy?

00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:58.400
I saw the face, he had a bio about him.

00:18:58.480 --> 00:19:00.559
I'm looking, I'm like, all right, we connect over this, that's fine.

00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:01.440
Yeah, okay.

00:19:01.599 --> 00:19:02.799
At least I know who's coming here.

00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:04.720
So when he opened the door, I was like, hey, Mark.

00:19:05.039 --> 00:19:07.039
He's like, yeah, great, Joe, nice to meet you.

00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:08.400
Come on in, let's talk.

00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:15.839
And at least it was a better connection that was made, even though I didn't think it was gonna work, and I always end up buying.

00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:17.200
So, you know what?

00:19:17.279 --> 00:19:28.000
It's a proven factor that even those who may not be believers at first, once you recognize when it matters, because my family, my kids, all right, now I'll check it out, and now it matters to me.

00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:28.960
Bingo, man.

00:19:29.039 --> 00:19:29.599
Bingo.

00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:39.200
This is so huge, and it's something that we're quite invested in with our own company and with teaching our clients current to this day, is something we call back end selling.

00:19:39.519 --> 00:19:46.160
Really, it's mostly rapport building, it's mostly informing people ahead of sending a tech out there into the fire.

00:19:46.400 --> 00:19:46.880
You know what?

00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:51.440
A perfect example of this, Joe, is that free inspection piece we touched on.

00:19:51.680 --> 00:19:56.799
Hey guys, uh, we're doing free inspections for October, so give ServiceSoup Electrical a call.

00:19:56.880 --> 00:20:00.880
We'll come to your house, find your faults, and then try to sell you, sell you on them.

00:20:01.119 --> 00:20:03.680
Like, no tech enjoys that call.

00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:05.359
Can we just agree on that?

00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:06.720
Oh, a hundred percent.

00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:08.640
And if anything, they're probably dreading it.

00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:09.599
And here's why.

00:20:09.759 --> 00:20:14.079
A lot of times people put in and say it's a free inspection because we're gonna throw a wide net.

00:20:14.240 --> 00:20:21.519
And as a technician who had to go out and deal with free inspections, you're gonna get the people who don't care, but they're like, I want to look into it.

00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:22.960
Maybe I can figure it out myself.

00:20:23.119 --> 00:20:28.640
Or you'll get the person who's like, you know, there was nothing really going on this day, and you told me it was a$50 rebate if we don't do something.

00:20:28.720 --> 00:20:29.599
I just want my$50.

00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:30.960
Can you get in and out?

00:20:31.279 --> 00:20:39.440
Instead, even if you charge$50 for it, the technician's gonna be happier because you at least remove the low bottom barrel trolls.

00:20:39.599 --> 00:20:43.680
So when I do get there, I have at least the opportunity to meet and connect with someone.

00:20:44.079 --> 00:20:44.559
100%.

00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:45.599
100%.

00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:54.559
So I'm just gonna keep doubling down on this personalized user-generated video content because it continues to serve again and again and again.

00:20:54.799 --> 00:20:56.400
You you've said it yourself, Joe.

00:20:56.480 --> 00:20:57.279
You saw the videos.

00:20:57.359 --> 00:21:00.000
Now, what do most people do when they ask for the review?

00:21:00.160 --> 00:21:02.559
Well, let's be honest, most aren't asking.

00:21:02.640 --> 00:21:04.960
And this is really an important piece of your marketing.

00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:09.920
The next steps we need is to get you to a hundred reviews, just like Forrest said on Google.

00:21:10.079 --> 00:21:19.039
We want that GBP um inherent reputation so that when people see you there, they see a crowd of people that have used you and said great things about you.

00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:20.559
This is so important.

00:21:20.799 --> 00:21:24.480
So, why aren't we asking for the reviews 100% of the time?

00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:27.200
I'm gonna take this back to the Serenity Prayer, brother.

00:21:27.359 --> 00:21:28.079
We have to.

00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:30.160
What are the things in my control?

00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:33.519
Every time I ask an electrician, well, what's your review rate?

00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:34.799
And they go, Pardon?

00:21:34.960 --> 00:21:36.319
What do you mean, review rate?

00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:40.400
Out of every 10 calls you go to, how many reviews do you get?

00:21:40.799 --> 00:21:48.160
They always say somewhere between 30 and 70 percent, which by the way, most people who say 70 aren't quite there even.

00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:52.319
It tends to be something you're shooting from the gut, you don't have it measured and managed.

00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:55.200
Okay, well, how often do you ask?

00:21:55.599 --> 00:21:59.839
Well, we're you know, we try, we we try to harp on that, you know.

00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:05.680
The CSR doesn't need right, it's like you're digging for something, but it ain't the truth, brother.

00:22:05.920 --> 00:22:08.000
Like you got to ask every single time.

00:22:08.160 --> 00:22:09.279
What can we control?

00:22:09.599 --> 00:22:14.079
Hey, we aim for five-star level of service every single time, Joseph.

00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:18.000
How are we at accomplishing that today on a scale of one to five?

00:22:18.160 --> 00:22:19.839
Please be brutally honest with me.

00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:21.279
Where are we at, brother?

00:22:21.519 --> 00:22:22.240
I love that.

00:22:22.319 --> 00:22:24.319
And can we go even one step further?

00:22:24.640 --> 00:22:30.799
Because it's one thing to ask, but the next thing is all of us have a billion things on that list.

00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:32.720
You know how we first started talking about the honeydews?

00:22:33.039 --> 00:22:42.079
The thing is, is that if someone has even the slightest barrier, oh, I logged into my email, but the password wasn't correct.

00:22:42.240 --> 00:22:43.839
All right, screw it, I'm not doing it at all.

00:22:44.000 --> 00:22:49.200
Or, you know what, I want to put it on Google, but yeah, you know, whatever, whatever the thing is.

00:22:49.440 --> 00:23:14.799
So when you ask, do you have the means of taking them exactly where it is, whether it's a QR code that they scan, or whether it's a link that you send them, and then say, because I want to ensure you don't have to have anything more on your plate, don't have to look for an email, don't have to dig into your desktop later, I'll send it to you right now and I'll be here right here, so that if you have any questions or any concerns, I'll literally walk you the whole thing.

00:23:14.880 --> 00:23:16.960
So it could be done within 25 seconds.

00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:19.279
Where would you like me to send the review to?

00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:21.759
And it's right into the ask.

00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:24.000
Wholeheartedly, wholeheartedly.

00:23:24.160 --> 00:23:27.680
So, step one to the reviews, you gotta ask 100%.

00:23:28.400 --> 00:23:29.279
You have to know.

00:23:29.440 --> 00:23:32.559
I don't expect that every single person will leave a review, by the way.

00:23:32.720 --> 00:23:34.480
Some won't, and some you won't want to.

00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:38.400
You'll want to solve some problems first, and then maybe they'll give you the five-star review.

00:23:38.640 --> 00:23:46.079
Either way, you need the opportunity to make sure your reputation lives up to that five stars that I know that Joe knows you guys are aiming for.

00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:48.400
So you got to ask 100% of the time.

00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:53.680
Imagine a company that gets 30% reviews and only asks 30% of the time.

00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:59.200
Hey, they're batting a thousand for the times they ask, but what about the other seven clients?

00:24:00.240 --> 00:24:00.720
Nothing.

00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:02.160
And they go, I don't know.

00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:04.000
We send them an email.

00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:07.119
It's like a three email request.

00:24:07.839 --> 00:24:16.559
How many times, Joe, have you been not satisfied enough to leave a review, but also not angry enough to leave a bad review either?

00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:19.200
How many times have people left you in the middle?

00:24:19.519 --> 00:24:22.880
So very, very rarely, and let me just explain the thing.

00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:29.920
I will more often write a review if I'm three out of five, four out of five, five out of five.

00:24:30.240 --> 00:24:40.160
And I won't write the bad review for three to twos out of fives, but I will write the review for one out of five.

00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:47.519
And the reason being is as a business owner, someone who's had businesses before, I know the damage one bad review can do.

00:24:47.759 --> 00:24:55.599
And I gotta be dead certain that you effed this up in a big way, or you intended on it, or you had the wrong motives, or you just did not care.

00:24:55.839 --> 00:25:05.200
Because if I put that out there, it's more of my saying, there is a warning, don't go with this guy, don't do it, and this is what happened to me.

00:25:05.359 --> 00:25:12.400
But unless I feel that strongly, I won't condemn the people because I wouldn't want someone doing that to me.

00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:15.039
Yeah, and it becomes not worth a conflict.

00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:20.400
So here's my truth on the matter if I'm pissed off, I'll tell you.

00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:32.559
And it won't always be that I will initiate that conversation, but if I'm not happy and you ask, I will tell you because it's it's often that I'm actually a bit upset at that time.

00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:33.519
I'm pissed off.

00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:36.000
I'm gonna go and bitch behind your back later.

00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:41.519
That's literally how I feel as a customer when this stuff happens, and it's the simplest things.

00:25:41.680 --> 00:25:46.880
Like you walk into a shop, someone makes eye contact and then goes back to their work and no one says anything.

00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:50.000
I'm not gonna go leave a review, but that was horseshit.

00:25:51.359 --> 00:25:54.559
Imagine if your customers felt that way and you didn't even know.

00:25:55.920 --> 00:26:00.160
This is the part of lead generation and marketing that no one's fucking talking about.

00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:04.960
Excuse my French, but it's so important because what do we do with reviews?

00:26:05.359 --> 00:26:09.759
Well, the language that's in there is what matters to our future customers too.

00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:14.799
And the stuff that we didn't extract is exactly where we're gonna crash and burn.

00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:19.039
And Charlie Munger said it best like, show me where I'll die and I'll never go there.

00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:21.839
That's why we gotta say, hey, be brutally honest with me.

00:26:22.000 --> 00:26:24.079
Tell me what really happened here so I can fix it.

00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:26.880
Help me help you and others like you.

00:26:27.279 --> 00:26:28.960
Guy might say now, well, you were late.

00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:33.279
And that actually was kind of a you know disruption because I took time from work.

00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:36.880
He showed up an hour later, like, I don't have all day.

00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:46.799
That might be something where they won't even review, but you could still fix it if you meet it head on, and you can use that for your content and your inspiration to position your business better.

00:26:46.880 --> 00:26:50.079
As Joe always says, it's positioning, not pressure.

00:26:50.400 --> 00:26:52.160
These are the elements of your positioning.

00:26:52.240 --> 00:26:53.119
Go ahead, brother.

00:26:53.440 --> 00:27:24.960
You know, the that the second thing that goes attached to that, which I think is so cool, is that sometimes you'll have a client who's like me, and sometimes you'll have a client who's like you, but there's also a third client who is willing to complain, but not to you, which is why we developed the CSR happy call process where they're literally asking certain questions that elicit an emotional response and then position themselves as the person who can help see you through those conflicts and resolve them and rectify them in real time.

00:27:25.359 --> 00:27:26.160
Because you know what?

00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:28.240
They may come to me and be like, Joe, how did I do?

00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:28.960
How was my service?

00:27:29.359 --> 00:27:30.160
Don't worry about it, it's fine.

00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:30.799
You did a good job.

00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:31.200
Thank you.

00:27:31.279 --> 00:27:32.000
I hope you have a great day.

00:27:32.079 --> 00:27:32.640
Yeah, you too.

00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:33.519
Got it, thank you.

00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:38.160
And then you have this other situation where the CSR calls, like, hey, did Joe give you an amazing experience?

00:27:38.799 --> 00:27:40.400
I'm glad you asked.

00:27:40.640 --> 00:27:42.480
Actually, not, and here's why.

00:27:43.279 --> 00:27:54.720
So, as long as you have that multiple person who can then come in, a secondary person who could then ask the question, I'd rather them tell me than tell everyone else.

00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:57.279
If you had a great experience, tell everyone.

00:27:57.440 --> 00:28:00.240
If you had a bad experience, tell me so I can fix it.

00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:01.440
100%.

00:28:01.920 --> 00:28:13.279
And I know we started this hunting for leads and marketing, and we're going so deep in like just the preemptive measures to be great at marketing and have a killer brand or these things.

00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:17.839
And if you get these things right, I promise you guys, everything else will be easier.

00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:20.640
Everything else will be infinitely easier.

00:28:20.880 --> 00:28:27.359
If you're having troubles getting to 100 leads on Google, then here's a literal strategy we just designed for a guy in a class.

00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:28.720
And then we got to cut this one off.

00:28:28.799 --> 00:28:32.960
We'll have to do a part two on it, Joe, because we're going to run out of time at the half hour mark here.

00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:37.519
So a guy says, Hey, my LSA, my Google is not quite cranking out yet.

00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:42.640
LSA being local service ads, one way to get Google uh to pay Google to give you lead.

00:28:42.960 --> 00:28:48.319
Well, he only has under 30 reviews, only been in an area for six, seven months.

00:28:48.559 --> 00:28:51.599
So we look at it and we say, okay, well, what is working for you?

00:28:51.759 --> 00:28:53.359
What's filling your schedule now?

00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:56.960
And he says, Well, Angie's leads actually provided like a 15x.

00:28:57.039 --> 00:28:59.839
I know everyone shits on them, but we've been actually doing good.

00:28:59.920 --> 00:29:02.000
It just takes a lot of grind, you know?

00:29:02.319 --> 00:29:08.079
In the same breath, he says, but we just hired our CSR and uh we're looking for ways to leverage them.

00:29:08.319 --> 00:29:10.400
So some of the facts are starting to come together.

00:29:10.480 --> 00:29:18.319
We got a 15x from Angie's Leeds, we got an unleveraged CSR, and we have not enough reviews for Google to fully be monetized yet.

00:29:18.480 --> 00:29:21.200
So the goal, fully monetize Google.

00:29:21.279 --> 00:29:21.680
Why?

00:29:21.839 --> 00:29:26.480
Because that's where high-intent homeowners are going and searching for electricians still to this day.

00:29:26.640 --> 00:29:32.000
Yes, I know AI is capturing a big part of this audience, but it's still a 70-30 at least.

00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:35.839
The majority are going to Google to look for an electrician still.

00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:37.200
We got to get up there.

00:29:37.359 --> 00:29:39.440
We have to be a phone call coming in.

00:29:39.599 --> 00:29:44.720
That's a huge, huge priority and a massive privilege to have just inbound leads.

00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:46.559
Man, how spoiled are we, right?

00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:47.599
You don't have to do anything.

00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:49.359
They just call you and you pay the bill.

00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:50.400
That's amazing.

00:29:50.480 --> 00:29:51.920
We should capitalize on that.

00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:53.680
So here's what we designed.

00:29:53.920 --> 00:29:59.599
Hey, at 15x on Angie's, let's figure out your average ticket, your average opportunity.

00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:03.920
Based on conversion, let's figure out what your cost per lead is on Angie's.

00:30:04.079 --> 00:30:18.079
And let's do the simple math and actually design a strategy so that you know exactly how many Angie's leads you need to then get the reviews from Angie's and put them over to Google by, like Joe said, having a link that goes back to Google.

00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:20.319
Because you don't want your reviews on Angie's.

00:30:20.480 --> 00:30:23.759
You want them on Google, the channel that you're trying to improve.

00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:28.559
And with that great return on ad spend on Angie's, it made perfect sense.

00:30:28.720 --> 00:30:49.200
And so throttling your calendar, having your CSR do more pre-qualification, having them set you up for success by setting the right appointments on your calendar while they do all the speed to lead and heavy lifting of just finding you the right people, we found that this individual needs about a hundred Angie's leads to get another 70 reviews.

00:30:49.519 --> 00:30:52.799
Bingo bungo boom, there's your strategy.

00:30:53.359 --> 00:30:58.559
Whereas some electricians I know are just like, well, we're trying to get leads.

00:30:58.720 --> 00:31:01.200
You know, we're trying, we're asking more.

00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:06.640
And when you dive deeper and you really ask, well, have you reviewed the CSR calls, the happy calls?

00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:08.559
Well, no, but I think they're making them.

00:31:08.720 --> 00:31:10.480
Well, have you reviewed with your sales text?

00:31:10.640 --> 00:31:11.519
Are they asking every time?

00:31:11.680 --> 00:31:13.440
Your service text, are they asking every time?

00:31:13.680 --> 00:31:14.400
Well, I think so.

00:31:14.480 --> 00:31:15.759
We're working on the process.

00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:18.880
It's like there's always a level of accountability higher.

00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:19.920
You know what I mean, Joe?

00:31:20.400 --> 00:31:21.440
Victor versus victim.

00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:27.279
Oh, that's that's something I want to get into at one point, the victor versus victim mentality, because that's huge.

00:31:27.440 --> 00:31:29.279
That has so much into this.

00:31:29.759 --> 00:31:32.400
Again, this circles so much around serenity prayer.

00:31:32.480 --> 00:31:36.400
But if you get these basics right, guys, then you can accomplish anything.

00:31:36.559 --> 00:31:38.799
You can go to the top of that mountain and shout.

00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:42.799
You have earned the right to ask if they got a five-star experience.

00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:51.200
You have earned the right to get better at video to explain how good you are at the service you provide and how much you focus on the homeowner experience.

00:31:51.440 --> 00:32:04.559
And one of the biggest hacks I could give you guys to absolutely put rocket fuel in this Avgas into your jet is to get a sales journal and a marketing journal and to literally write this stuff down.

00:32:04.640 --> 00:32:06.480
And that might sound old school.

00:32:06.559 --> 00:32:13.759
So then pick up your phone, use that Chat GPT app and stay in the same thread every time where you just keep giving it.

00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:16.400
Hey, I was on a call today and Mrs.

00:32:16.559 --> 00:32:22.319
Henderson talked about how, yeah, the GFI was a problem, but it was also disruptive.

00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:27.519
And she told us how, you know what, when they plug multiple things in the circuits, it was tripping.

00:32:27.599 --> 00:32:32.559
And that was impacting them because they're trying to take their kids to school and their husband leaves at the same time.

00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:49.680
And and and these little micro details are so important because you start to lay out who you're actually talking to, which relates perfectly back to what we were talking about last time about just making the most of your relationships by understanding and relating to the people that you serve.

00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:52.480
And then taking a breath, Joe.

00:32:52.559 --> 00:32:56.799
I crammed as much as I could into this with as little time as we possibly could.

00:32:56.960 --> 00:32:58.640
Obviously, it's going to part two, man.

00:32:59.119 --> 00:33:02.160
I I don't even know if I answered your one question though.

00:33:02.559 --> 00:33:04.319
At the end of the day, though, you know what?

00:33:04.480 --> 00:33:07.359
It's a rope that continues, you're able to pull, right?

00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:10.160
Because as we go through it, we're like, all right, I'm gonna go to the next level.

00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:14.799
But as you go to next level, it's not just that it goes wide, it goes tall, it actually goes wider.

00:33:14.880 --> 00:33:16.240
There's a depth to the thing.

00:33:16.400 --> 00:33:21.039
You're like at the first rung, there's so many feet down to go.

00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:26.400
So I think it's important that we understand the basics in order to master the advanced.

00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:28.400
Yeah, I agree.

00:33:28.640 --> 00:33:29.279
I agree.

00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:31.359
At first, forget all the branding stuff.

00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:32.480
Don't go crazy on that.

00:33:32.559 --> 00:33:35.279
Go crazy on your personal story, your brand origin story.

00:33:35.440 --> 00:33:39.519
Go crazy on letting people know your journey on capturing this like reality TV.

00:33:39.680 --> 00:33:41.039
Go crazy on reputation.

00:33:41.200 --> 00:33:46.799
Go crazy on making sure that you serve every person, like your first and your last customer ever.

00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:49.279
Go crazy on the stories behind it.

00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:50.880
Go crazy on the relations.

00:33:51.039 --> 00:33:59.599
Go crazy on keeping track of all that stuff so that later you can go crazy on telling those stories in your marketing, in your ads.

00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:05.359
This will be the stuff that will make you irresistible because these are the extra efforts that guess what?

00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:07.359
No one else is doing, Joe.

00:34:07.599 --> 00:34:08.480
No one's doing it.

00:34:08.559 --> 00:34:15.599
If you guys want the whole low uh leads roadmap, you can go to Million Dollar Electricians Plural with an S on the end.com.

00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:17.599
Million Dollar Electricians.com.

00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:28.239
If you scroll down, there's a few roadmaps in there, but if you scroll down, you'll get roadmap one and two of the leads, as well as about a half hour presentation from yours truly on those things to help you out with this.

00:34:28.320 --> 00:34:30.159
And we'll do a part two next time, Joe.

00:34:30.239 --> 00:34:31.199
