Upcoming Live Webinars & Training Events

Every session is built around real contractor scenarios. No generic sales theory. No fluff. Just the specific frameworks, scripts, and processes that work in the trades.

Contractor sales team reviewing the Baseline Selling baseball diamond framework
Baseline Selling for the Trades

Baseline Selling for the Trades

The baseball diamond isn't a metaphor. It's how you run every deal. First base is the appointment. Second base is a fully qualified prospect with pain identified, decision process mapped, and cost of inaction quantified. Third base is your proposal. Home is the close.

Baseline Selling maps every deal to a position on the diamond. You always know where you are. You always know what the next move is. No more gut-feel pipeline management or deals that disappear after a proposal.
Each milestone must be earned before advancing. Pain labeled. Decision process confirmed. Cost of inaction quantified. You do not pitch until it is mathematically and emotionally obvious that staying put costs more than hiring you.
Residential and commercial reps in roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general contracting. If you are currently in bid-and-pray mode, this is your first base.
Ryan Groth coaching contractors on Sales DNA and internal mindset frameworks
Sales DNA and the Mindset OS

Sales DNA and the Mindset OS

Your Sales DNA is the operating system underneath every skill you have. You can learn every closing technique and still lose deals. If the OS is broken, the apps do not run. These webinars go directly after the six internal drivers that make or break sales performance.

Need for approval. Staying present. Buy cycle alignment. Comfort discussing money. Supportive beliefs. Emotional control under pressure. Each driver is measurable via the OMG Assessment and each one directly affects how you sell.
A belief like 'prospects are honest' sounds reasonable. It causes reps to accept surface answers, skip follow-up questions, and get shopped on price. Replacing one belief changes dozens of downstream behaviors.
Desire, Commitment, and Outlook are the three drivers of Will to Sell. Your OMG score shows exactly which one is holding you back. That score is your starting point, not your identity.

Discovery and Qualifying: Feel the Pain

Discovery and Qualifying: Feel the Pain

Most contractors pitch too early. They hear a problem and reach for a solution before the prospect has felt the full weight of staying stuck. These webinars teach the discovery process that makes your proposal a confirmation, not a pitch.

Your job is not to fix it yet. Your job is to label it, expand it, and quantify it. Estimating is the cost to do the job. Selling is the cost of not doing it right. Until the prospect feels both sides of that equation, you are just quoting.
Put real numbers to inaction. Labor inefficiency costs. Repeat repair expenses. Lost revenue per day of downtime. Executive stress and liability exposure. When those numbers land, the prospect sells themselves on your solution.
Surface reasons like 'we need a new roof' do not drive action. The Compelling Reasons framework uncovers the business, financial, and personal stakes that make change urgent. Without them, deals stall in your pipeline indefinitely.
Contractor closing a commercial deal using the Inoffensive Close framework
Closing Without Pressure

Closing Without Pressure

The Inoffensive Close is not a techniques. It is the natural result of doing every prior step correctly. When pain is quantified, the decision process is mapped, and compelling reasons are on the table, closing is a confirmation, not a confrontation.

By the time you reach the close, the prospect has already decided mentally. You are confirming a decision they made themselves. This eliminates the pressure dynamic that makes most contractors uncomfortable with asking for business.
The Closing and Objection Playbook covers the specific objections contractors hear in roofing, HVAC, plumbing, and commercial service calls. Scripts are real, field-tested, and trade-specific. Not adapted from generic B2B sales.
You are not a vendor begging for work. You are an expert consultant bringing value to the conversation. Equal Business Stature means asking tough questions, holding your position, and treating the prospect as a peer, not a gatekeeper.

Commercial Sales: Fleet, PM, and Multi-Stakeholder Deals

Commercial Sales: Fleet, PM, and Multi-Stakeholder Deals

Commercial sales in the trades is its own discipline. Selling to a property manager, a fleet director, or a facilities VP is different from residential. These webinars cover the specific frameworks STG built for commercial contractor sales.

Account Development Meetings are proactive, structured touchpoints with existing commercial accounts. They prevent the reactive vendor trap where you only get called for emergencies. ADM expands wallet share and deepens relationships systematically.
Before a prospect moves to you, they are leaving something behind. Understanding what they are firing, the specific frustrations and failures with their current vendor, creates the contrast that makes your proposal the obvious choice.
Generic differentiation does not work in commercial sales. SOB Quality forces you to identify your specific, provable advantages over competitors. Not claims. Proof. Used when handling competitive objections and positioning multi-stakeholder proposals.

Sales Leadership and Team Building

Sales Leadership and Team Building

Building a sales team that performs without you in every deal is a different skill than selling yourself. These webinars address the operating system for sales leaders in contracting companies, from the 6 Daily Standards to Boardroom-level strategy.

Coaching conversations stop being vague when every deal has a position on the diamond. The Milestone Tracking Sheet gives managers a measurable baseline. You coach to specific milestones, not feelings about how a call went.
The 6 Daily Standards are a structured framework for sales leaders. Executed consistently, they make team performance predictable rather than reactive. This is Boardroom-level content taught directly by Ryan Groth in the C-Suite coaching program.
Building a Clubhouse Environment, a high-performing team culture in contracting, requires a specific leadership approach. The Level 5 Leadership framework plus the Team Kick-Off Optimization Checklist gives you the practical tools to build it.
