366: Jessica Harling: How a Vision Board Led to a Very Exciting Partnership

Today on Window Treatments for Profit

Long-time listeners of the show undoubtedly recognize today’s guest, Jessica Harling. Over the years, she’s provided insight, taught courses at LuAnn University, run her own segment of the podcast, and shown her superpower for crystal-clear business operations. 

But today, we’re bringing Jessica in to unveil some new and exciting news that we’ve been waiting to share with all of you, including a new role, new perspectives, and some sentimental but powerful stories from our years in the Exciting Windows community.

“The 7-step sales process is like knowing something so well that it feels brand new every time somebody sees it. That is to me, an exceptional salesperson—that the structure is lying behind you.” -LuAnn 

“I think the biggest dramatic change, if I had to say one thing that EW does for a person’s business is it increases the profitability. You might not get any more leads. You might not hire any more people. You might not have to do any more marketing. But even if you did everything you did last year, you will make more money the next year.” -LuAnn 

“When it comes to processes, I always look at what is the easy way? Like, why are we doing it three ways? Legitimately, why are we doing that? And if there’s a legitimate why, then fine. But there is often not in duplication.” -Jessica
