Logan and Aaron unpack one of the most powerful but underused sales strategies in remodeling: assignment selling. Originally coined by Marcus Sheridan, this method bridges the gap between marketing and sales—by arming prospects with the right information before they ever get on a call.

You'll learn how to apply this approach in your own sales process—whether it's sending project walkthroughs before a meeting, using content to pre-qualify leads, or walking clients through your website in real-time. If you've been creating great content but aren't sure how to use it to actually close deals, this episode will show you how.

What You'll Learn
  • What assignment selling is (and isn't)

  • Why content belongs in your sales process, not just your marketing

  • How to reduce unqualified leads and shorten the sales cycle

  • What kinds of content work best at different sales stages

  • How to personalize resources based on each prospect

  • The difference between automations vs one-on-one communication

  • How to ask clients to consume content—without sounding pushy
