He's been selling roofs for 27 years and calls himself a ‘Dinosaur.'Dan Walrack has thrived in the massive changes our industry has seen. But Dan said there's one thing that has not changed much for him over the last 27 years - his daily routine. These daily habits have helped him become one of the most successful people I've ever met in residential roofing sales. In this ‘behind the scenes' style interview, Dan shares:- His “3 goals everyday” practice- Why he chases ‘NO' more than yes- How he wins today, every day - How he gets homeowners chasing him (so he doesn't have to knock)- How he protects his evenings and does not work late anymoreWatch and share the interview: After 27 Years in Roofing Sales, This Is STILL His Daily Routine.P.S. Sales habits aren't born overnight.

He helped grow MHI from $3M to $17M in four years before selling the company.So I sat down with Jon Broce and asked a simple question:Looking back, what would you do differently?His answer turned into a great conversation about the mistakes that slow growth, cause chaos, and reduce profitability.Watch this new video to discover:How Jon worked backwards from production capacity instead of asking, “How much can we sell?”The simple “dollars per day” calculation that helped them decide which services to cut.Why having the right playbook isn't enough... and what actually separates roofing companies that execute from those that stay stuck.If you're trying to build a simpler, more profitable roofing company without reinventing the wheel, I think you'll get a lot out of this one.P.S.

Roofing sales just aren't as easy as they used to be.A few years ago, if you knew the insurance process, stayed persistent, and followed the playbook, you could do very well.Today we have higher deductibles, more ACV policies, managed repair programs, and more. That combined with a depressed market and even more competition makes it feel much harder than it used to be.The game has changed.That's exactly what Dan Walrack and I dive into in this week's video.Watch: The Game Has Changed: How Winning Roofers Sell in 2026We discuss: • The advantage of shifting from insurance-first conversations to retail-first thinking.• How to overcome today's objections. • Why your sales process should evolve to meet homeowners' new needs. Our industry is headed in a new direction, and I hope this conversation helps you feel optimistic about how to adapt. P.S. The contractors who thrive over the next few years won't necessarily be the ones who knock the most doors; they'll be the ones who adapt the fastest.If you're looking for practical training, sales systems, and a community of growth-minded roofing contractors committed to serving homeowners the right way, I'd love to invite you to join the Roofing STRONG Alliance™ community: https://rsa.pro/=============Join The Roofing STRONG Alliance by TAMKO™ (RSA): https://rsa.pro/Exclusively available to The TAMKO Edge® Certified Contractors at no additional cost.FREE Starter Membership (RSA): https://rsa.pro/freePODCASTApple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3fSQievSpotify: https://bit.ly/3eMAqJeFOLLOWFacebookInstagramTikTokLinkedInViews and opinions expressed are based on the speakers' personal experiences in the roofing industry prior to working with TAMKO.

Before you start dropping prices or negotiating with homeowners, read this. Homeowners are price shopping more than before. One of the smartest sales strategies I've ever learned was from Jon Abernathy, and he trained his team to do the exact opposite: Offer an economy roof package.Here's the surprising part...Most homeowners don't buy it.Because it gives them a reference point that builds trust, removes price objections, and naturally leads them into the higher value option without feeling pressured.Jon's approach had me re-thinking things… and I imagine it will do the same for you. Watch this interview to see Jon break down:• Why an economy package can actually make your premium packages easier to sell.• How to stop negotiating on price and start negotiating on value instead.• The simple package strategy that helps homeowners confidently choose the option that's right for them.I hope this valuable interview helps you make even more sales in today's ultra-competitive market.

Roofing industry legend Dan Walrack shares the word-for-word d2d pitch he has refined over 20 years in this new interview.What inspired me the most from this interview was Dan's philosophy. He isn't trying to "close" homeowners.He's trying to understand them and what they need.Dan's pitch is brilliant because:• It starts a conversation that consistently gets homeowners talking.• The neighborhood strategy that turns one approved roof into multiple signed jobs.• How to stop sounding like every other roofing salesperson in your market.You may want to share this one with your team or watch it in your next sales meeting.I think you'll finish this video knowing what it takes to be great on the doors.

Roofing sales have gotten harder this year...I've had more conversations with roofing contractors describing sales as a “knife fight” than ever before.Leads are down.Homeowners are comparing more estimates.And too many roofers are responding by dropping prices just to keep jobs coming in.Here's the problem...If your answer to a changing market is simply lowering your price, you're playing a game you can never win.The market didn't just get slower, it changed.Homeowners are making buying decisions differently than they did just a few years ago. They're comparing more options, delaying decisions longer, and looking for more confidence before they move forward.The good news?Once you understand what's changed, you'll feel confident about what to do next.Watch this new video to learn:-The 3 biggest reasons roofing sales are harder in 2026.-The real reason homeowners are shopping differently than ever before.-The new opportunities this creates.Strong roofing companies are adapting in real-time to earn more business without relying on discounts, and I hope this helps you do exactly that.

They are generating $250M per year… from referrals and repeat business. I sat down with Josh Sparks, Chairman of the ~$600M roofing portfolio called Infinity Home Services (IHS) to learn exactly how 40-60% of their revenue is word of mouth.While some companies are struggling for leads, IHS is growing and referrals are a huge reason why. Josh isn't shy to share what's worked for them because he says, “Everybody has your strategy. Nobody has your execution.” Watch this interview to learn: - Why most referral programs fail- The ‘SMART' framework he's been using for 30 years- His best advice to drive referrals that anyone can useIt's been a tough year for a lot of roofers, and I hope this video helps you drive more word-of-mouth business.P.S.

Have you noticed how much harder it feels to get homeowners to make a decision lately?They're collecting more estimates.Comparing more options.Taking longer to decide.And in many cases... doing nothing at all.I recently heard about a homeowner who collected 12 roofing estimates.If every contractor presented three options, that homeowner was comparing 36 different roof packages.No wonder so many homeowners feel overwhelmed.Here's the surprising part...The problem may not be your price.And it isn't your products.It's often how the packages are built and presented.In today's new video, I break down the simple framework to make it even easier for homeowners to choose the best one (for them).Inside the video, you'll learn:• The 4 building blocks every roof package should include• How to structure your unique Good, Better, Best packages• Why homeowners tend to keep choosing one package over the others• The pricing psychology that helps homeowners compare options with confidence• A few simple changes you can make that may improve both your close rate and average saleIf your sales team is presenting multiple options, this is a video you'll want everyone to watch.Watch the video here.P.S. Today's roofing competition is feeling higher pressure than before. Roofers are having to adapt in real time.

If you're struggling with low leads, low close rates, or cashflow problems, this could be why…You could be too slow at the moments that matter most. Because money follows speed. And if you're too slow, you may be putting yourself at a big disadvantage. In roofing, there are 3 measurements of speed to master.Watch this new video to learn what they are, how to track them, and how to improve them. P.S. Speed = more money.

How do shingle ratings and warranties actually drive sales? First, they are not the same thing, and many roofers are getting this wrong. Ratings = “This has been tested.” Warranties = “This company backs it.”Why does this matter? Because homeowners aren't buying roofs.They're buying what feels like certainty. If you can't explain this properly to homeowners, they will not understand your value. But if you get this right, you could be the one roofer that stood out from everyone else. P.S.

One of the most frustrating parts of running a roofing company right now is feeling like someone else controls your growth.Maybe it's the lead company.Maybe it's the marketing agency.Maybe it's a referral source that's slowed down.Or maybe it's the simple reality that every lead seems to cost more than it did a year ago.When leads get tight, most contractors react the same way:"We need more leads."But in many cases, that's not actually the problem.The real problem is control.When your business depends entirely on outside sources for opportunities, you're constantly reacting instead of proactively creating growth.That's exactly why I sat down with RSA mentor Kody Landals.After building and scaling an in-house call center for his own roofing company, Kody went on to help implement the same systems across multiple roofing brands.Watch this interview where Kody breaks down the 5-step framework for building your own roofing call center.A few of the topics we cover:• The first numbers you need to know before spending a dollar on leads• The technology stack that makes an in-house call center possible• Why hiring for personality beats hiring for call center experience• How to create scripts, scorecards, and accountability systems that actually work• The daily metrics that tell you whether your lead generation is healthy—or headed for troubleIf you're looking for more control, more predictability, and a practical framework for building an internal lead generation engine, I think you'll get a lot from this one.Stay strong.P.S. Kody is working with contractors like you on lead generation, call center builds, phone sales, and scaling.

We all got to make a living. Here are some tips if you get stuck at your front door talking to a pushy salesperson!
Some tips!
A pest control guy knocked on my door with zero appointment and 30 minutes later I had my credit card out. I had no plans to buy anything that day — so what changed my mind? In this week's lesson, I break down what he did right and how the same communication tactics apply directly to buying houses from sellers. I also share a deal in Warwick, NY where a seller told me "no" on the first call — and we still ended up closing on her house. The lesson: this business is 90% communication. You can have the best offer in town, but if sellers don't know, like, and trust you, they'll sell to someone else who communicates better. If you're a wholesaler or investor in Seattle, Delaware, or the Hudson Valley and have a deal, let's talk.
Have you noticed it feels harder to get homeowners to make a decision lately?Maybe you've watched estimates sit longer than they used to.Maybe you've seen homeowners choose repairs over replacement.Maybe lead costs are climbing while opportunities feel harder to come by.You're wondering..."Is this just happening to me, or is something bigger going on?"I had the opportunity to spend time with roofing contractors from across the country at the Florida Roofing & Sheet Metal Association Annual Convention.In conversations at the TAMKO booth, during an industry panel, and at a private gatherings with contractors, I kept hearing these same 3 themes over and over again.And while none of us has a crystal ball, these trends may be signaling something important about where our industry is today and where it could be heading next.In this new video, I break down:1) How homeowners are using AI to compare and choose roofing estimates 2) How sales cycles are stretching to two and even three years in some markets3) How and why repairs are becoming a larger part of the conversation as homeowners delay replacement decisionsMost importantly, I share what I believe the opportunity is for roofing companies willing to adapt.Because while some contractors see these trends as threats...The strongest companies will recognize them as signals.Signals to improve their sales process, better serve homeowners, and run leaner, smarter businesses.The good news?Every home still has a roof.And every roof will eventually need to be replaced.The question isn't whether opportunity exists.The question is whether we're preparing ourselves for what's next.Stay strong,P.S.

This week, hosts of N2K CyberWire Maria Varmazis and Dave Bittner alongside Joe Carrigan are discussing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. We start with some follow-up on an editorial examining whether AI could signal the beginning of the end for traditional social engineering, as attackers increasingly target AI systems instead of people. Dave's got the story on an FBI warning that crypto scammers are using cash couriers to collect money from victims and bypass banking safeguards. Maria's got the story on AI-powered impersonators posing as members of the rock band Sons of Legion to scam fans through fake relationships and fraudulent requests for money. Joe's got two stories: one on HSBC Australia facing a proposed $246 million penalty over alleged scam protection failures, and another on two Michigan gold scam busts that prevented victims from losing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Our catch of the day is a reflection on a past interaction where the author initially held out hope someone might reappear, but ultimately accepts they're gone and shares the story in hindsight, including their own strongly emotional reaction at the time. Resources and links to stories: The Beginning of the End of Social Engineering FBI Warns Courier Cash Pickups Are Driving Crypto Scams A Rock Band Went Viral. Then AI Scammers Moved In HSBC's Australia unit to pay $24.6 million fine over scam protection failures, court rules A Couple Was Told To Turn $250,000 Into Gold.

Homeowners are now using AI to compare roof estimates.That means that AI could be advising your homeowners on which roofer to choose. And from the conversations I've been having, it sounds like this is becoming even more common. I wanted to know exactly what AI was saying to homeowners, so I ran the experiment myself.I fed three real roof estimates into ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini and I documented everything.Watch this new video to see my test results:1) The 7 things AI looks for when comparing roof estimates2) How estimates that don't include attic ventilation details get “red flagged”3) The specificity AI expects on warranties, flashing, ice & water shield, and more4) The details about the cleanup process that AI seems to want in an estimate5) The 3 common questions AI is prompting homeowners to ask their contractors (these were the most surprising to me)This emerging trend is actually great news for contractors who are willing to adapt.Because what AI flagged is very fixable. And if you adapt before your competitors do, your estimate could become the one AI points to as the winner.P.S. Are you interested in building an even stronger, more modern roofing company?

Leads are down.Marketing costs are up.And it feels like every week there's another roofing company willing to bid a roof for less than what you'd charge just to cover material and labor.Lots of roofers are asking the same question, "Where can I get more leads?"But what if I told you there's an easier way to drive sales without buying more leads?The leads aren't gone. They're hiding. And they're a lot closer than you think.Right now, sitting inside your CRM, there are real homeowners who showed interest and never said no. They just... went quiet. I sat down with my journal and mapped out 7 techniques I've tested over the years to create sales seemingly out of thin air. And I put it all into this brand new video for you.Here's a taste of what's inside:1) The simple rehash technique that re-injects life into cold opportunities (with word-for-word text templates you can use today)2) How to run a promotion or special offer that gives people a reason to act now3) A free offer reframe that excites homeowners to say yes even if they said no before4) How a true price increase notice can encourage people to take action today5) New payment plan messaging that opens doors for budget-conscious buyers6) A repair conversation opener that gets you back in the home with zero pressure7) How to revitalize old estimates with one simple question that closes dealsThese aren't complicated strategies. They don't require a big budget or a new lead source. They just require knowing where to look and what to say when you get there.P.S.

It's Thursday, June 18th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark More countries persecute religious citizens More countries are seeing high levels of social hostilities involving religion. A new Pew Research report found 55 countries recorded high or very high levels of such religious hostilities in 2023. That figure has risen three years in a row. Christians faced harassment in the largest number of countries compared to any other religion. Countries with very high levels of religious hostilities include Bangladesh, India, Nigeria, Pakistan, and Syria. Most of those countries also rank in the top 10 most oppressive countries for Christians according to Open Doors. Luke 6:22-23 says, “Blessed are you when men hate you, and when they exclude you, and revile you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of Man's sake. Rejoice in that day and leap for joy! For indeed your reward is great in Heaven.” Pro-family charter signed involving 20 of 54 African countries Lawmakers in Africa gathered for the Fourth African Parliamentary Conference on Family Sovereignty and Values this month in Ghana. Attendees represented 20 out of 54 countries across the continent. Lawmakers signed a pro-family charter at the conference, reports LifeSiteNews. The charter defends the traditional family and opposes abortion and sexually perverted lifestyles. Britain to ban social media for kids The United Kingdom plans on banning social media for children under 16. Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced the ban on Monday which will take effect next year. The U.K. joins other countries putting restrictions on social media use for children. These countries include Australia, Brazil, Canada, and Indonesia. The U.K. ban will affect platforms like Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and X. Bulgarian Christians now allowed to evangelize door-to-door The European Court of Human Rights ruled to protect door-to-door evangelism last week. The case began in Bulgaria where the government issued a broad ban on the practice. Nicolas Bauer with the European Centre for Law and Justice told EWTN News, “Evangelizing is often viewed with suspicion in a secularized Europe. The European Court of Human Rights ruling reaffirms a basic requirement of religious freedom for believers: the right to the same freedom of expression as everyone else.” Alabama officials threaten mail-order abortion kill pill providers In the United States, the state of Alabama issued cease and desist letters to mail order abortion providers last week. The companies were illegally providing chemical abortion-inducing drugs to residents in the state. Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall said, “Alabama's law is clear, abortion is illegal in this state. These companies are not only breaking the law, they are deceiving Alabama consumers about the very real dangers of these drugs. That stops now. Anyone who tries to exploit Alabamians for profit while flouting our laws will be prosecuted to the fullest extent permitted by law.” Habakkuk 2:9 and 12 says, “Woe to him who covets evil gain for his house, That he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of disaster! … Woe to him who builds a town with bloodshed, who establishes a city by iniquity!" Elon Musk became Earth's first trillionaire Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk became the world's first trillionaire last week. His company SpaceX went public on Friday in the biggest initial public offering of all time. His shares in the company at the time were over $766 billion. Combined with his Tesla shares of $280 billion, his net worth pushed past the trillion-dollar mark. This comes 14 years after Musk crossed the billionaire threshold. Gallup: 65% of Americans say religiosity benefits society And finally, a new Gallup poll found that most Americans still believe religiosity would benefit the United States. Sixty-five percent of respondents said it would be positive for society if more Americans were religious. But that's down from 75% back in 2013. Americans are divided on whether the federal government should promote moral values. Forty-five percent say the government should be involved while 50 percent say it should not be involved. Gallup noted, “The poll comes at a time when a Republican presidential administration has sought to elevate the role of religion in public life, including by establishing the White House Office of Faith, beginning government meetings with Christian prayers, and encouraging federal workers to express their faith in the workplace.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, June 18th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Kody had nearly $1M in revenue due that month when the phone started ringing…It was the solar companies calling - the same solar companies he was installing roofs for.They said they were having cashflow problems and couldn't pay what they owed.In a few short weeks, Kody was stiffed for $1M.Payroll was staring him in the face.His company owed more than he was bringing in.He had two choices.1. Figure out how to survive the cashflow crisis.2. Go out of business.Kody worked seemingly non-stop to save his company by focusing on one simple concept: Speed up cash coming in and slow down cash going out.He survived by focusing on using these 5 cash flow management practices.P.S. Behind most successful roofers is a story like Kody's. People just don't talk about it in the open.

If you take roof pictures like this, they'll basically sell themselves.The problem is that many sales people don't know how to share them the best way.So they whip out their phone, scroll through dozens of photos, and tell the homeowner that the roof is absolutely destroyed and they need to buy a new roof immediately.The homeowner puts their guard up, and for good reason.Instead, you can use what Jon Broce calls the “i35” framework.i = Inspection3 = 3 Photos (in this exact order: Bad, Good, Worst)5 = 5 Questions The way Jon Broce explains this process is nothing short of brilliant.It puts the homeowner in control.They see the photos, understand them, take ownership of the condition, and choose what to do about it.Watch this new video to learn Jon Broce's “i35 Framework” and get your roof pictures selling themselves.P.S.

Most roofing contractors believe there are only two ways to sell a roof: 1) Get a lead. 2) Sit at the kitchen table. Kody Landals proved there's a third. After building a roofing company around solar partnerships, the industry shifted overnight. More than $1 million in receivables got pushed out, cash flow tightened, and the business was staring down a major problem. Instead of doubling down on the traditional model, Kody built a system that allowed homeowners to buy roofs over the phone. No kitchen table. No 2-hour in-home presentations. No driving across town for every estimate. The result? His company scaled to over $2,000,000 per month in roofing sales while dramatically reducing operational complexity. In this interview, Kody breaks down: • The exact moment that forced him to reinvent his business • How he sells roofs without traditional in-home appointments • The process homeowners actually prefer today • The systems that made scaling possible • Where contractors could start if they want to test this model Whether you decide to implement phone sales or not, this conversation will challenge some assumptions you may have about how roofing companies can grow in today's market. P.S. Kody is teaching RSA Members how to sell roofs over the phone just like he did.

You want to close like an artist?You need to understand the psychology of closing, not just regurgitate word-tracks or one-liners. That means knowing what's going through the mind of the prospect so you can guide them on the journey in a supportive and helpful way.Closing like an artist means having authentic, natural conversations that flow into earning a homeowner's business. I'll show you how without being inauthentic, sleazy, or pushy. P.S. If you want to increase your close rates, you'll likely want training, practice, and feedback. You can do that on your own, with your company, or with expert guidance. If you want expert guidance, I'd love to help. Learn more: https://rsa.pro/P.P.S. Did you see the news?
