The Crucial Role of Sales in the Restoration Industry

By Myldred Ingram
July 8, 2024

In the fast-paced and ever-evolving restoration industry, the importance of sales cannot be overstated. Sales play a vital role in driving business growth, building strong customer relationships, and ultimately ensuring the success and sustainability of restoration companies. From attracting new clients to delivering exceptional service, sales professionals are at the forefront of connecting with customers being the glue between them and the company.

In this episode of “Ask the Expert” we are joined by Gregg Taylor, chairman and managing partner of GTE Holdings, parent company for Xactly by GTE, specializing in restoration recruiting, and Restoration Sales Force specializing in restoration sales management.

 We discuss the management of Restoration Industry Sales Reps, and the challenges that surround the management of a restoration sales team and what he is doing to solve those challenges!

To learn more information about Xactly by GTE, and to connect with Gregg you can find him on Linkedin by searching “Gregg Taylor”, on the GTE Holdings website and last but not least here on www.randrmagonline.com!

Myldred Ingram is the former Editor-in-Chief of Restoration and Remediation (R&R) magazine. When she’s not writing or reviewing an article she enjoys trying new restaurants in her local area and beyond. The beyond part is because she will most definitely book a plane ticket or take a road trip to another city for food. She loves meeting new people professionally, and working with industry professionals to build upon their brands by thinking of innovative tools for their platforms. Moreover, she’s  excited for the opportunity to merge her journalism, production and technical writing background for use towards R&R magazine. Myldred manages with a servant leader mentality believing that it takes many parts to help an operation run efficiently and there’s no I in team. Myldred looks forward to meeting everyone and learning more about the Restoration and Remediation industry.
