How to make a fortune selling Service Agreements

How to make a small fortune by selling Service Agreements!

I wrote this article five years ago, it’s just as important and relevant today.

There are many benefits for you and your customers from selling Service Agreements.

One of the most important reasons, for you, is the income generated from the sale of

Service Agreements. Some other benefits are: 

  1. Customer loyalty.
  2. Your clients are truly your customers and no longer just a name in your database.
  3. You will have monthly cash flow coming in.
  4. Priority service.
  5. 15% discount on all services.
  6. Never any after-hour or holiday fees.

From service agreements alone, you could possibly make one million dollars extra revenue in 10 years.

For example, we will use a very modest scenario. Suppose a technician can only sell service agreements to 30% of your customers. And let's say the average technician has three service calls a day. That's 15 calls per week. 30% of 15 calls equals 4.5 customers that he has sold a service agreement to.

The service agreements can be sold on a monthly or annual fee basis. For this example, we will sell service agreements at $150 for one year's service. 4.5 agreements selling for $150 equals $675 for a week's sales.

If your technician works 50 weeks a year, he or she will bring in a total of $675 x 50 weeks which will equal $33,750 in sales. This equates to 225 service agreements a year totaling $2812.50 each month in extra income.

Let's suppose that over the next ten years, your technician still only closes 30% of sales for service agreements. Ten years x 225 agreements a year equals 2250 agreements sold by one technician over a ten year period. 2250 x $150 per agreement equals $337,500 in total sales for the ten-year time-frame, equating to $28,125 a month in extra income.

If you have five technicians with a closure rate of 30% on service agreement sales, 5 x $28,125 equals $140,625 extra income a month or $1,687,500 a year.

As you can see, there is great potential for extra income from the sale of service agreements. You have the potential and means for your company to profit and raise its net worth. These attributes are what entrepreneurs or investors look for when they want to buy your business.

So what's the alternative? Not to sell service agreements and miss out on the opportunity to achieve additional financial stability solely through the sale of these agreements?

There is great potential here. Doors will open for you when the time is right! Just as this door has opened for you now.

I just shared one scenario with you on how you can change your business and your future. Don't wait a week or a month or years to start. Start right away. Make a difference in your life and your company. The choice is yours.

What your fellow electricians say about ES2.

We have been using “Electrical Success Systems” software for a number of years now. It allowed us to get rid of the paper, lost notes, and confusion that plagues most all of us. We have been able to streamline the quoting process, keep track of invoicing, and make changes to the business to bring better service to our customers. The staff is excellent at helping you out and answering your questions and concerns, and that is not just about the software but the business side of things too. Ultimately it has helped our shop to become extremely competitive at a higher level, all the while maintaining a healthy profit margin. I highly recommend utilizing the software and all the company has to offer!

New member here. I went into business in 89 and have been flat rating for about 15 years. I was trying to find one program to get rid of 6 that I was using.I found it! There is so much great information in the forum, and the contributions by everyone is nothing like I've ever seen. Tight group in here. The forums are worth the monthly fee alone.

I am part owner of an electrical service company in the San Francisco bay area and we have been serving our clients since 1999. We started using the ES2 system in 2011 and have been very happy with the program and with the support staff. In the past we used paper and pen to give the customer a number that we thought would be profitable for us. And sometimes we would get the job and sometimes we would not. Ever since we signed up with ES2 we have closed more business, gained more clients, clients love to see that we give them an ``up front honest price”, they love the professional look (using a portable device iPad or Samsung pad) and most important we make a good ethical profit.

You owe it to yourself and to your family to at least try the system for 6 months. You have nothing to lose except the profit that is rightfully yours if you don’t sign up.

Since my start with Electrical Success Systems, job closure has tripled. The highly professional service this software system has, is why my confidence in this system is so great. Not only the program, but also the vast amount of practical on the job experience, that shines through every part of it. It is easy to forget the amount of work that goes into a task and running a business, but with ES2, all of that is built in. The thought that went into each task extends into the back office. With direct input into quickbooks online, it more than pays for itself in the time saved from double entry. Great job James and crew!

After many years of pricing the old fashioned way and not making any real money to speak of, I started searching for a better and more modern way to do business without paper invoices and having to spend family time to work up the estimates and not sending them by snail mail. Now when I arrive I already have my customers data in the customer list , I just pull up the work to be done by touching it on the iPad click on their name and have them sign the estimate on the iPad screen with the set pricing already there and your done !! The its emailed on the spot. My income jumped into the black very quickly and I've never looked back with regret for joining ES2.

I have been using the system for nearly four years now. To call this anything less than essential would be doing a disservice to what it has done for me. The amount of time it saves me from office paperwork is priceless. I no longer need to come home after a long day and type up handwritten notes into spreadsheet and mail out an invoice or quote. Everything is done onsite. My customers receive quotes nearly instantaneously, and I'm no longer trying to estimate on the fly. The team at ES2 is very attentive and constantly striving to help advance my business as a whole. I'm glad I can count of them being in my corner when I need them.
