Thank you Rex Rutledge and Melanie Melvin
90 days. One cold call. Countless conversations. Two signed communities. š
This opportunity didnāt start with a referral or lead, it started with a cold call and a ļæ¼conversation in an on-site community office.
Instead of leading with the sales pitch, I listened. I took the time to understand the communities needs, brought in the right internal partners early, stayed engaged throughout the process, and focused on building trust every step of the way.
There were competing bids, multiple board presentations, engineering reviews, legal, negotiations, and a lot of teamwork behind the scenes. Because we stayed collaborative and kept the customers goals first, we were able to simplify the process and earn their confidence.
In just 90 days, both communities voted for Summit Broadband Fiber!
This experience was a great reminder that people donāt buy because of the best presentation, they buy from people they trust. Relationships, listening, and teamwork make all the difference.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped make this happen. Looking forward to whatās next!
Do you- or someone you know- live in an HOA? If your community has questions about fiber internet, bulk agreements, or simply wants to better understand its options, Iād love to be a resource for your communityš
