Gutter Guard Scam Neenah WI - Beware High-Pressure Sales
Dan reached out to me a day after I asked my AsktheBuilder newsletter subscribers to share what their gutter guards cost to install.
His email helped create my Gutter Guard Cost page. You should look at it. It contains OTHER gutter guard scam links.
BEWARE Powerful Psychology
His story is powerful and it speaks to the often unethical tactics used by salespeople that prey on folks like you. They make use of extremely effective psychology that works on every human being. It's much like the Jedi mind tricks Obi-Wan Kenobi used in the original Star Wars movie.
This psychology is all covered in an easy-to-read book titled: Influence - The Psychology of Persuasion
I link to it below Dan's story. I BEG YOU TO BUY IT so you NEVER GET SCREWED AGAIN.
LeafFilter is going to be none too happy about Dan's story but they only have their dealer to blame. Federal Law allows me to publish stories like this so you can avoid heartache as Dan suffered.
Tim,
I already submitted the numbers from a quote yesterday for my in-laws to your website.
I thought I’d offer some more details.
Here is what was proposed in the LeafFilter quote:
252’ Clean, Pitch, Reinforce and seal gutters with LeafFilter 5” Clay
The salesman from LeafFilter started with a $12,951 list price but offered a special discount price of $10,451 if it was paid over twelve months.
But if I paid the day the product was installed, I only had to pay $7,251.
Then the salesman went to call his manager and came back with a $6,402 Managers Appraisal price via credit card.
They could install as early as the next day if we wanted. To get that price, they needed an answer within 72 hours.
It seems like they’re are taking the car salesmen approach.
Dan
The LeafFilter salesman was invoking the following psychological triggers:
- Reciprocity (kindly offering you a discount)
- Authority (bringing in his manager's approval of a lower price)
- Scarcity (taking away ALL of the savings if you don't act within 72 hours)
Scarcity is the most powerful psychological trick of all. It's why we waterboard POWs. We take away oxygen and the POW starts singing like a canary.
