The handoff

A sit the closer cannot open is not a set

You feel it when the setter swears the living room is ready and the closer starts from a name. What is a setter in sales is the person who books that sit and leaves notes on the same pin. 9 sits booked and 6 held only help if the closer can open the household.

  • The set

    Appointment set is the outcome. Creates Lead can open the household from that visit.

  • The pin

    One lead per pin and vendor. The sit is not a row in a side sheet.

  • The closer

    The closer sits the deal after the set. They should not rebuild the story on the porch.
