    What Homeowners Actually Want From Contractors

    If you're in the skilled trades like HVAC, plumbing, electrical, or any service where the phone rings with "Hey, my system isn't working," this episode of SBM, "What Homeowners Actually Want" with Zac Dearing of Mantel, is about as close to printing money as a podcast gets. Consider it your cheat sheet into the homeowner's brain and wallet. Here's why you should listen, especially if you: Want to make more from every visit (yes, without feeling like a pushy home comfort advisor). Are stuck trying to grow your business, because you keep hearing "You're too expensive" or "Let me think about it." Need clarity on what ACTUALLY matters to modern homeowners. Spoiler: it's not just the dollar amount. Are tired of home comfort "gurus" who can't back up their advice with hard data. If you want real, actionable ways to improve your process before, during, and after the visit grab the report the team discusses at usemantel.com/survey. It's built on actual fieldwork, not fantasy.
