Built for Every Seat on Your HVAC Sales Team

Comfort advisors, commercial reps, managers, new hires and owners each get the process and tools for their role.

In-Home Sales for Comfort Advisors

In-Home Sales for Comfort Advisors

Your comfort advisors walk into kitchens every day. Baseline Selling gives them a process for every call, from the first question to the signed agreement.

Advisors measure the house, quote three options and leave. Homeowners shop the number, and your close rate depends on whoever ran the call that day.
Reps learn Feel the Pain and Quantifying the Problem, so the homeowner sees the real cost of an aging system before price ever comes up.
The Baseline Selling Sales Script, Pre-Call Planning Worksheet, Qualifying Cheat Sheet and the Inoffensive Close, with coaching recordings on real HVAC comfort upgrade calls.

Commercial HVAC Accounts and Service Agreements

Commercial HVAC Accounts and Service Agreements

Commercial HVAC sales means property managers, facility directors and several decision makers. We teach your reps to sell as a peer, not a vendor waiting for an emergency.

Reps get called when equipment fails, quote the repair and wait. Accounts stay reactive, and the replacement work goes to whoever the decision maker trusts.
Equal Business Stature, Compelling Reasons and Account Development Meetings turn one-off service calls into planned, long-term relationships with your commercial accounts.
The ADM Cheat Sheet, Decision Process Questions, Compelling Reasons Worksheet and Quantifying the Problem Worksheet for downtime, repeat repairs and tenant comfort costs.

Sales Managers and HVAC Owners

Sales Managers and HVAC Owners

If you are still running every big sale yourself, the business cannot grow past you. We help you build a team that sells the way you do.

The owner closes the best deals, coaches when there is time and has no clear view of which jobs will actually close this month.
Milestone tracking, weekly coaching calls and the Salesperson Coaching Process give managers one way to coach and one view of the whole pipeline.
The Sales Meeting Template, Ride Along Evaluation Form, Pipeline Management Worksheet and 9 coaching checklists, plus monthly Boardroom calls with Ryan for leaders.

Hiring and Onboarding HVAC Sales Reps

Hiring and Onboarding HVAC Sales Reps

A bad sales hire costs you months of leads. The OMG Assessment shows a candidate's Will to Sell and Sales DNA before you hand over your appointments.

Reps get hired on personality and gut feel, then ninety days later you find out the new advisor cannot close and the leads are gone.
Assess candidates with OMG, then onboard them through the same Baseline Selling process and milestones the rest of your team already runs.
The OMG Sales Assessment, Recruiting Funnel, Ideal Customer Profile and Residential Sales Scorecard to measure new reps from their very first ride-along.

Online Training and the STG Community

Not ready for coaching yet? STG Academy on Skool gives your team 10 courses and 545 modules, plus a community of 591+ members working the same system.

Reps forget training within weeks when there is no follow-up, no practice and nobody holding them to the new process.
Self-paced courses with phase quizzes, weekly coaching call recordings and a resource library your reps can open before their next in-home call.
Downloadable scripts, worksheets, pinups and role-play scenarios, organized into residential, commercial and leadership tracks inside STG Academy.

Owners and Leadership Teams in the Boardroom

Monthly Boardroom calls with Ryan Groth are for leadership teams only, not reps. Owners work on the business side of sales: goals, constraints and daily standards.

Owners spend the week putting out fires and never step back to fix the one constraint that is choking sales growth.
Theory of Constraints, the Achievement Roadmap Process and the 6 Daily Standards give leaders a short list of what actually moves the business.

How It Works

From First Call to a Coached HVAC Sales Team

Every engagement follows the same four steps, whether you run two trucks or thirty. We start with data, not opinions.

1

Book a 45-Minute Call

Tell us about your team, your lead flow and where deals stall. We will tell you honestly whether STG is a fit.

2

Assess Every Rep With OMG

Your comfort advisors and sales managers take the OMG Sales Assessment, so we know each person's Will to Sell, Sales DNA and skill gaps.

3

Install Baseline Selling and Milestones

Your team learns one shared process built for HVAC sales calls, with milestones that show where every deal stands in your pipeline.

4

Coach Weekly and Track Progress

Weekly coaching, ride-alongs and milestone reviews keep the process running. You see close rates and pipeline movement instead of guessing.

Ready to Fix HVAC Sales?

Straight answers, no pitch.

In 45 minutes we look at how your comfort advisors sell today, where deals stall and what a sales operating system would change.

  • One Baseline Selling process for every advisor
  • OMG assessment data on every rep
  • Weekly coaching and accountability
  • Built only for contractors

No pressure, just answers

Three Frameworks Your HVAC Reps Will Use Every Day

Pulled from STG's 15+ Baseline Selling frameworks and applied to real HVAC comfort and replacement calls.

Feel the Pain Discovery

Your job is not to fix it yet. Advisors learn to label, expand and quantify the homeowner's problem before they present a single system option.

  • Ask questions that create doubt in the status quo
  • Double-click on dissatisfaction
  • Recap in the homeowner's own words

Quantifying the Problem Before Price

Estimating is the cost to do the job. Selling is the cost of not doing it right. Reps put real dollars on repairs, comfort and risk before the proposal.

  • Move from repair cost to cost of inaction
  • Uncover the compelling reason to replace now
  • Stop pitching price before second base

The Inoffensive Close at the Kitchen Table

Asking for the commitment without pressure. When pain, budget and decision process are handled first, the close simply confirms a decision the homeowner already made.

  • No slimy closer tactics
  • Prevent objections by qualifying first
  • Confirm the decision instead of pushing for it

Generic Sales Training vs. STG for HVAC

Your reps sell in living rooms and mechanical rooms, not conference rooms. The training should match.

Generic Training

One-Size-Fits-All Sales Courses

Training designed for any industry, delivered once, then left to your managers to reinforce. The examples rarely match an in-home HVAC replacement call.

  • Generic B2B or retail examples
  • No objective rep assessment
  • Scripts without a tracked process
  • One-time event, no follow-up
  • You still manage the team alone
STG

  • Contractor-only, 12+ trades including HVAC
  • OMG assessment of every rep

HVAC Sales Training Questions

What HVAC owners and sales managers ask before working with STG.

STG trains only contractors, and HVAC is one of the 12+ trades we work with. Coaching recordings cover real situations like HVAC comfort system upgrades, so the examples match your calls.

Yes. Residential comfort advisors and commercial reps get separate coaching tracks. Commercial reps learn Equal Business Stature and Account Development Meetings for property managers and facility teams.

We do not guarantee results. Too many variables sit outside any program. We promise the process, the OMG assessment data, weekly coaching and the support to install it. Your team does the work.

One Baseline Selling process, an OMG assessment, weekly live coaching, the STG Academy library of 10 courses and 545 modules, and 30+ scripts, worksheets and scorecards.

Yes. With Platinum Fractional Sales Leadership, STG manages your sales team as if it were our own, including coaching, meetings and pipeline accountability, while you lead the company.

Book a 45-minute call. We look at your team, lead flow and where deals stall, then recommend coaching, a workshop or fractional leadership, or tell you honestly if we are not a fit.
