Austin's prior professional experience
01 / The pest-control company where Austin ran inside sales

The sales team did not decide how many jobs got booked. The office did.

Everybody believed booked initials were a function of the sales team's skill.

From Austin's employment before Surge. Not Surge client work, and not a Surge measurement.

02 / Starting condition

Austin started on the phones and worked up to running the inside sales team. The best closer still lost jobs to whichever company called the homeowner back first.

03 / What Austin did

Rebuilt how leads were routed, how fast they were answered, and how follow-up was tracked, before touching the pitch.

04 / Result, at the confidence the evidence supports

Response time, not pitch quality, was the variable that moved booked initials. That is why Surge starts with the office and not the salespeople.

05 / Systems involved
  • The company's CRM and phone system at the time
06 / How it was measured

Operating experience, not a Surge measurement. No figures are published.

07 / Limitations

Prior professional experience, not Surge client work.

No numbers are claimed, because none were recorded to a standard Surge would publish.
