Steve Hunsaker | Home Service Accelerator

Paid an international contractor via crypto today…. We’re all in agreement this many years later that it absolutely is not an efficient way to transact whatsoever… right?

@LiamStraebler I wish

@blessThisMoney It’s horrendous and not possibly a currency anyone is going to transact with any time soon lol

A couple rules of entrepreneurship I’ve learned over the years: 1. The goal is to eliminate “jack of all trades” employees as fast as possible. (Necessary to have some in the beginning) but your employee who does sales, customer service, and manages the phones wont scale

2. If you have an opportunity to grow a personal brand and the resources to systemize the content vehicle behind it… do it. It has opened more doors for me that have directly impacted ALL of my business’s bottom line than just about anything else I’ve done.

3. Every single thing you are ever pitched that sounds like a slam dunk and too good to be true will almost always is The agency you hire to blow you up, the employee you headhunt to run a dept will give you headaches one way or another, etc. Temper expectations always.

4. In person events for your industry feel like a waste of time and money and resources but holy crap you absolutely have to get friends that are in your trade. I have convos in my messages still ripping with people I met at home service events in 2021.

5. If a sales rep demands a base salary… run.

@dylthorn God gave me this voluptuous ass for a reason Dylan the world must see it

This is probably one of the most impactful videos we released, but interestingly enough, it won't do well algorithmically because it's target audience is smaller than generic lead gen ones I make Feels like X is the right place for this Global Talent: https://t.co/SS4iYdW8xh

@irentdumpsters Watch the video you shmuck it’s @MatznerJon

@bestdoorguy @MatznerJon get this man some Argentinian door designers ASAP

@bestdoorguy @ToddLlewellyn @MatznerJon Sounds like they were some local talent

@jamesonhaslam 😂😂😂😂

The amount of home service owners doing over $500k+ a year who still answer their own phone is insane to me You are the bottleneck dawg You've always been the bottleneck

@ToddLlewellyn @remotecleanguy His name is Todd and he’s great on the phones

@LocalSEODude Hey man do you happen to sell SEO services per chance?

@irentdumpsters @ToddLlewellyn @remotecleanguy If you wanna funnel hack Todd all you have to do is call his cell phone and you’ll see the whole thing

@TheSoftWashPro No it’s absolutely not 😂

@TheSoftWashPro Global talent> VA Va’s especially from brokers suck

@CoffeeWithMattC Paying someone to answer your phones

Hired another client fulfillment specialist for Home Service Accelerator. Has meta ad experience, Gohighlevel expert, and has years of relevant experience in our trades. We’re finally to the point where can hire people that are better at their respective jobs than I am because

@TheKingdomdad He’s US based. We posted on job boards but ended up hiring a connection from one of our employees

@blessThisMoney You were heard my friend

Home Service Phone Guide: Bad-Not answering your company phone and letting leads go to voicemail Better-AI answering service trained to collect contact info Very good-A human answering your phones Best-A human with product knowledge and no accent answering your phones

@Lndscpguymatt You disagree meaning you think you’ll close more jobs sending inbound calls to voicemail or to an AI answering service?

@jamesonhaslam I this sarcasm Jameson

@Lndscpguymatt I think if you really lock in on global talent hiring for 1 week you’d find a weapon for less than $2500 a month

@Lndscpguymatt I only have experience with one company and it was Sagan so I’d be disingenuous to give advice on going anywhere else

I processed a $20,000 commission check for a 24 year old today. His living expenses are less than $3500/month. That’s it. That’s the post.

@DruinBenny That kid could retire at 40 if he’s smart lol

@Benefitsguynick Dude plays video games, goes on long hikes, and rips sales. That’s it 😂

I fired a crew member for being a soft handed weenie in 2022 and his mom texted me to tell me how mean I am for firing him after he no call no showed 2x. His mom picked up his final check. It has come to my attention that he’s a furry now. How neat

@irentdumpsters I should have just @‘ed you

@Bobbyvickers Gulp

I am a full blown tard who still runs my business like an idiot in a lot of ways. But man, the best thing that ever happened to me was working for the worst possible sales manager ever in 2017-2019. Creating an environment that attracts killers and non-time clock punchers >>> https://t.co/biynmWrdZ4

@markfzhuk @Nads_Shariff Door to door freight brokerage software sales baby https://t.co/SrETCt9WbR

Did a job interview last week This was step 2 in the process so I was on this one When we asked performance questions the answers were clearly polished-turd ai teleprompter slop So I said “WHAT DO WE SELL AND WHO DO WE SELL TO?” Immediate ahs, ums, & silence Wild times man

Moral of the story. Train your little interview bots on the product that is sold by the company you’re interviewing for.

@jamesonhaslam I hate you

Dudes who had one good year selling solar in 2021 have the salary entitlement equivalent of a 35 year old BBL’ed out Miami club rat with 3 children on hinge dates

@sodacitysimpson I interviewed a guy who sold solar to be a closer for Home Service Accelerator. Told me he makes $600k a year doing solar sales. I said “man $600k a year doing solar sales… what are you wasting your time on this $100-$200k closer role for?” Silence.

@cadre Oh it is not your area. Lol I feel the exact same way

@pricefoulger Some being maybe .5% of the entire solar doorknocking world. But yes the outliers print. But I’m not talking to the outliers when they’re looking for a job now with me 😂

6 years of running this SMB we have fired people for: -Stealing -using my credit card to DoorDash themselves Ben and Jerry’s But this year i got the privilege of adding: -55+yr old journeyman talking about how sexually attractive his sister is to 19 year old employees So fun

@SMB_path I didn’t even have it. It was wonderful. That’s Jack’s job 🤣

@irentdumpsters Yes

@stevehaag81 Probably tbh

@letsrolepod The latter but worse
