## Resource

On this episode of the Jered Williams Show, Jeff Cronin, known as the $8 million plumber, shares how he achieved a record $8.4 million in plumbing sales in 2023. He explains his straightforward sales approach that focuses on customer comfort, pre-call communication, live camera inspections, and presenting clear A or B choices instead of rigid scripts. Jeff discusses moving from maintenance calls to high-ticket repairs by building trust, drawing diagrams on paper, and offering financing options that make big numbers feel manageable. He also critiques traditional training methods and emphasizes that success comes from being courteous, transparent, and focused on solving problems permanently rather than hustling backwards.
