9. Lead Conversion Plan


We will convert 10% of all leads that make the initial visit to our office.


9.1 Sales Strategy

We plan to bring our prospects into our office for their initial consultation, interrupting the standard practice in our industry of running out to a home for the first meeting.

This approach will help differentiate us and allow us to properly conduct presentations that highlight our process and showcase our design expertise.This approach also shows that we have a very professional staff, office and process - something that also differentiates us from much of the competition.


9.2 Sales Process

Prospect path:

1. First call: prospects are qualified by our lead designer
2. Invited to our office (pre-meeting package sent)
3. Design consultant and owner conduct in-office preview
4. In-house meeting
5. Proposal drafted/Design contract
6. Contract offered
7. Deposit and specs


9.2.1 Qualify

All leads go to our head designer to be qualified and then sent to a project consultant. Leads are directed to more information or referred to other contractors. All leads are scored and entered into CRM for future follow-up.

9.2.2 Present

In-office presentation involves our process overview presentation, video testimonials, virtual project slideshow and showroom tour. Consultant and owner participate in the meeting.
