Week 1 — Gutters: Customer Communication + Review Ask (Lesson)

What you’re doing today

You’re running the communication that turns a “one-time gutter job” into:

  • a 5-star review
  • repeat work
  • roof/house/windows bundles

Why this matters

Top 50–75% pricing needs top 50–75% communication.

When communication is clean, customers feel safe — and they buy more.

Step-by-step communication timeline (foreman simple)

  1. Arrival: confirm scope + downspouts.
  2. Mid-job: message if a downspout won’t verify or you find damage.
  3. Completion: Proof Pack + summary.
  4. Review ask: 24–72 hours later.

Completion message (with Proof Pack)

Use Proof Pack completion language:

Review ask timing

Ask 24–72 hours after completion.

  • communication
  • punctuality
  • clean jobsite

That builds Voice-of-Customer you can reuse.

    • Fix: ask for specifics.
