The Roofing Contractor

For Briggs Gregory

Roofing is feast or famine. A storm rolls through and the phones explode, and the rest of the year you're trying to stay in front of every estimate that didn't close. The goal of automation here is to keep the operation running through both extremes without leaning on Briggs.

Opportunities for The Roofing Contractor

A few automations you could put in place this quarter. Each one streamlines a workflow that probably runs through someone on your team today.

01

Move the second a storm hits

Hail and wind events are the biggest swing in a roofer's year. Automating storm-triggered outreach (geo-targeted ads, AI-handled inbound calls, instant scheduling) means you're booking inspections while competitors are still pulling team members in.

Time saved Hours a day during storm weeks
02

Auto-generate inspection reports from the roof

Photos taken during the inspection can be assembled into a branded PDF report with line items and recommendations, ready to send to the homeowner and adjuster before the inspector is back at the truck.

Time saved An afternoon a week of office assembly time
03

Stop estimates from going cold

Most quotes that don't close are quotes that never got a follow-up. Automated touch sequences over the first two weeks, written so the homeowner doesn't feel pestered, consistently lift close rate.

Time saved A few hours a week of manual chasing
04

Make the referral ask happen automatically

Most of your business comes from referrals, but the ask itself is usually ad hoc. After a job is done and the homeowner is happy, an automated request with a clear path to send a friend takes referrals from luck to system.

Time saved Time you don't spend remembering to ask

How Salty Air helps

Automations only stick if someone owns them. Here's how we'd run it together.

  1. 1 30-minute call to talk through what tends to bottleneck through Briggs
  2. 2 Pick the 2 or 3 automations that would have the biggest impact this season
  3. 3 Build them on top of whatever software and crew workflow you already use
  4. 4 Train your office manager to own the system so storm season doesn't burn anyone out
