You don't need more quotes.

You need more conversations.

One of the biggest mistakes painting business owners make is believing their job is to get as many quotes out the door as possible.

But you're not in the quoting business.

You're in the painting business.

In this week's episode of The Painters Circle, Tas breaks down a pattern he noticed after speaking with dozens of painting business owners at a recent trade expo and workshop in Melbourne.

The question kept coming up:

“How do I get more quotes?”

But that might be the wrong question.

Before someone becomes a quote, they're a lead.

Before they become a customer, you need to understand what they actually want, why they want it, when they need it, and whether you're the right business to help them.

And simply emailing another PDF isn't necessarily going to get you there.
