Overnight Roofing Gurus and Sales Coaches are mostly just slick talkers that provide some value... naah

 Ah, the age of the internet, AI and automate EVERYTHING and lets 10x, 50x, 100x your or scale as they call it – where everyone and their dog can become an overnight sensation. And in the vast world of roofing, this phenomenon is no different. Enter the self-proclaimed sales gurus, roofing experts, and chatbot AI specialists. These are the folks who, after watching a couple of YouTube videos, suddenly feel qualified to teach the rest of us how to install a roof, what to do in unique situations, or how to combat unruly adjusters or homeowners. How to sell the most of any one given thing...

When these self-proclaimed roofing gurus or coaches face a pointed question about the industry, an application, a roofing feature, or product knowledge, they often dodge the issue, steering the conversation elsewhere. This tactic seems designed to deflect attention and prevent their lack of genuine expertise from being unmasked.

Now, I've been in the roofing industry for over 30 years. I've sold, installed and managed over a million square feet of roofing and have accumulated more than 30 years of sales experience in the construction industry. So, when I see these overnight "experts" popping up, that 3 days ago NO ONE ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH heard of, I can't help but laugh.  The sad part is many of you are seasoned as well and you pay money to go see these guys.

We all know them.  There's the TJs, Ryan's, and don't forget the Lee's oh, and his buddy from Russia with... roofing advice; the Anthony's, the Grant's and next there's the Sam's, they are all great at telling you stories and how to do things, but most of them simply sell you things to steal your money or client database.  Many of these people recommend a specific CRM or app, but actually own stock or hired someone to built it (lets face it most of these guys aren't intelligent enough to do so)... guess where the clients data goes since they own it because you accepted the terms and conditions?  Their server.  That means they can now access your clients through whatever channel they choose. 

 

It's like watching a reality TV show where the plot twists are as predictable as a soap opera. Now, I'm not implying that they're all cut from the same shit stained cloth. There are some shining stars in this murky galaxy. Take Becca Switzer, for instance. She's the real deal, and if you ever doubt her she'll not only tell you but show you faster than you can say "insurance claim" she is a bonafide dragon slayer in this industry;  then there is the Steve Patrick's of the World.  Now he is legit, and doesn't mind getting dirty.  Jeremy Cannefax, another dyed in the wool monster in this industry.  A true force of good in a pool of evil.  And let's not forget Dale Childress, another actual real beacon of hope in this sea of slithering... well, let's just call them "interesting" characters.  But Dale Childress is also the real deal; these are the ones I would pay attention to.  The rest?  Sure, if you're 20 years old and just getting in the game, and have limited experience in the roofing industry, let alone know the process.  Then yeah, sure, these other people are fine. You know the ones I'm talking about. They speak out of both sides of their mouth so much that you'd think they're trying out for a ventriloquist act. It's like their opinions and "proof" are on perpetual spin cycle, leaving us all dizzy and confused. Take our dear friend from Russia, for example. One minute he's trash-talking GAF, and get sued for defamation... But hey - No problem! Just switch gears and become their biggest fan by singing their praises like they're the Garry Kasparov of roofing.  It's all in a day's work in the topsy-turvy world of roofing advice from non roofers.

To you youngin's, navigate this industry with your eyes wide open. Experience things for yourself. After all, why rely on someone else's version of the truth when you've got a perfectly good brain of your own? In the world of roofing, it's always best to trust but verify. And maybe keep an umbrella handy, just in case. The techniques and secrets of the roofing industry are intended to be sold to you by these people of ill repute, not freely shared.

While the internet is a great place to learn and share, it's essential to remember that not all that glitters is gold. Or in this case, not all that shingles is a roof. So, the next time you come across an "expert" online, remember to take their advice with a grain of salt – or maybe a whole salt shaker.

A staggering 60% of the industry seems to be riding the wave of this newfound momentum. But here's the catch: many professionals are getting swept up in the hype without critically evaluating the true value of these self-proclaimed experts.  Some folks on this list happened to be in the right place when Mother Nature decided to throw a party - be it a hurricane, tornado, or hailstorm. And voilà! They're not just making it rain; they're making it pour. And what do they do with this windfall? Well, they don't just buy a new umbrella. They catapult themselves into the glamorous world of digital creation or, wait for it... roofing sales coaching. Because, why not?It's reminiscent of the dot-com bubble, where every Tom, Dick, and Harry became an overnight internet mogul. Or the oil and gas industry, where some struck black gold by merely looking at a patch of land. And let's not forget the gold miners, who, rumor has it, could find gold in their backyards if they dug deep enough.

Most of these so-called "industry leaders" have little to no valid experience and are just smooth-talking scammers. Sure, they've got hustle, but they'd probably sell you a bridge if they could. So, hats off to these masters of minimal effort and maximum ego-stroking! Bravo! 

The Hype vs. Reality

The most alarming aspect is the number of professionals who invest in these gurus' products and services simply because of the buzz surrounding them. It's as if many have forgotten the innate skills, talents, and instincts they use daily, whether it's in a sales pitch to a potential client or navigating a challenging situation. Why are so many willing to pay someone else to tell them what they already know? Why attend expensive conventions or conferences where the primary goal seems to be spending money rather than making it?

Before the era of aggressive online marketing, had anyone even heard of these so-called gurus? The answer is likely no. Instead, the industry was familiar with genuine professionals—those with a proven track record, not just a flashy online presence.

The Dangers of Internet Hype; With the rise of platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and Google, it's become easier than ever for these gurus to gain visibility. But just because they're visible doesn't mean they're credible. The true professionals in the roofing industry are those who have honed their craft over years, if not decades. They have tangible success stories, not just viral marketing campaigns. 

The Manufacturing Dilemma; The industry's challenges don't stop with marketing gurus. There's a significant issue with manufacturers who seem to have forgotten their place. Many roofing professionals are essentially paying these manufacturers to market their products. It's baffling to think that some of the biggest names in roofing manufacturing, like GAF (originally General Aniline & Film - dude, they were a film company for pete's sake...), have limited knowledge about the actual roofing industry. Their expertise lies in marketing, not roofing.  Or by their namesake Film.  Not roofing. 

Yet, many roofing contractors allow these manufacturing giants to influence their business decisions. When you're the one promoting their products, why should you settle for minimal returns? Since when did a brand not financially recognize It's number one customers?  Its time for a wake-up call. They want us to pay them to learn how to sell their product so that they avoid liability and still seldom cover any of their mistakes?

In Conclusion, The next time Mother Nature decides to throw a party, maybe we should all RSVP. Who knows? You might just find your next career move amidst the chaos. Cheers to the opportunists! But let's be real, you can be whoever you want on the internet. You can sensationalize whatever you want in todays fake culture. Now, they're on the internet, trying to stay relevant, doing the bare minimum, enticing the sellers of the sale. All while giving their egos a nice little massage. The roofing industry belongs to the hardworking professionals who've dedicated their lives to it, not to fleeting internet gurus or out-of-touch manufacturers. It's crucial to remember your worth, trust your instincts, and make decisions that benefit you and your business. Don't let anyone else dictate the trajectory of your career.

On a personal note, I don't think everyone of these people are horrible.  Most, but not all.  I feel like many of them are scammers and you just got "took", but they did it with a platform so its no ones stupidity but yours.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL PROPERTY OWNERS Covering Insurance Deductibles is ILLEGAL

If someone proposes that you "make money" or "not pay your full deductible" on the roof installation and/or property claim with a contract price of $1,000.00 or greater, this is  INSURANCE FRAUD, and the property owner and insured along with roofing contractor are subject to jail time and fines.  "Waiving Deductibles", "Absorbing Deductibles", "Discounting Deductibles", "Rebates", "Credits", "Offsets", "Sign Allowances" or any form of avoiding monetary payment of the required insurance deductible.  It's all illegal.  See our video on YouTube here: 

	H.B. No. 2102AN ACT   relating to the payment of insurance deductibles related to   property insurance policies; creating a criminal offense.          BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:          SECTION 1.  Subtitle F, Title 5, Insurance Code, is amended   by adding Chapter 707 to read as follows:   CHAPTER 707. PAYMENT OF INSURANCE DEDUCTIBLE          Sec. 707.001.  DEFINITIONS. In this chapter:                (1)  "Person" means an individual, corporation,   association, partnership, limited liability company, or other   legal entity.                (2)  "Property insurance policy" means an insurance   policy issued by an insurer, including a county mutual insurance   the company, farm mutual insurance company, Lloyd's plan, or reciprocal   or inter-insurance exchange, that provides first-party coverage for   loss of or damage to real property.          Sec. 707.002.  PAYMENT OF DEDUCTIBLE REQUIRED. A person   insured under a property insurance policy shall pay any deductible   applicable to a first-party claim made under the policy.          Sec. 707.003.  CONSUMER EDUCATION. The department, in   coordination with other state agencies and stakeholders as   necessary, shall develop and implement an education program related   to the payment of property insurance policy deductibles. The   program must:                (1)  provide reasonable methods to educate insurance   consumers and providers of goods or services that are regularly   paid for from proceeds of property insurance claims; and                (2)  include information regarding:                      (A)  the requirements of this chapter and Section   27.02, Business & Commerce Code; and                      (B)  the conduct prohibited by Section 27.02,   Business & Commerce Code.          Sec. 707.004.  REASONABLE PROOF OF PAYMENT.  An insurer that   issues a property insurance policy with replacement cost coverage   may refuse to pay a claim for withheld recoverable depreciation or a   replacement cost holdback under the policy until the insurer   receives reasonable proof of payment by the policyholder of any   deductible applicable to the claim. Reasonable proof of payment   includes a canceled check, money order receipt, credit card   the statement, or copy of an executed installment plan contract or   other financing arrangement that requires full payment of the   deductible over time.          Sec. 707.005.  RULEMAKING. The commissioner may adopt rules   as necessary to implement this chapter. Section 2001.0045,   Government Code does not apply to rules adopted under this   section. Industry Professionals Merlin Law Group explain the truth about the insurance claims process. Texas Insurance Code 707.002

"Texas Law requires a person insured under a property insurance policy to pay any deductible applicable to a claim made under the policy.  It is a violation of Texas law for a person or business paid wholly or partly from proceeds of a property insurance claim to knowingly allow the policyholder to fail to pay, or assist the policyholder's failure to pay, the applicable insurance deductible."

The new statute gives insurance companies and the State two ways to enforce these requirements.

FIRST - Insurance companies may now "refuse to pay a claim for replacement cost value" until the contractor handling the claim provides proof of payment of the deductible (Texas Insurance Code 707.005)

SECOND – On the surface, its a Class A Misdemeanor to violate in accordance with 707.005; both the service provider and the insured are subject to violations. (Texas Insurance Code 707.006)  Insurance carriers are now working with the Attorney Generals office in charging the insured and/or Homeowners as well as, the contractor for insurance fraud a Felony in the State of Texas (Texas Penal Code: Title 7 - Offenses Against Property, Ch. 35, Insurance Fraud Sec 35.02)

Roof Certification for §179D Tax Deduction

Roofing Professionals of Texas and its affiliates do not provide tax, legal or accounting advice.

Section 179D of the Federal Tax Code Offers a Tax Deduction for Installing Energy Efficiencies in Real Property

Note: As part of a COVID-19 relief package passed by Congress on December 21, 2020, the §179D deduction will now be a permanent part of the tax code.

Through §179D of the tax code, commercial building owners may be eligible for a federal tax deduction of up to $1.80 per square foot for improving the energy efficiency of new and existing buildings. Specifically, the §179D deduction is worth up to $0.60 per square foot each for qualifying energy-efficient improvements to a building’s lighting system, HVAC system, and the building envelope including roofing and insulation and solar upgrades. After 2020, these amounts will be indexed for inflation. In addition to building owners, primary designers—including architects, engineers, green building consultants, and contractors—of qualifying energy efficiency measures in government-owned buildings may also claim the deduction.

Third-party certification is required to claim the §179D deduction, and we are a lead certifier. Our experience has helped us simplify the certification process and allows us to offer the most competitive fees in this professional specialty.

Energy efficiency projects can generally deliver a positive return on investment when tax incentives are applied. However, capturing all beneficial incentives requires that both engineering and tax strategy are performed in sync. This is where Roofing Professionals of Texas adds exceptional value for our clients. Drawing on our team’s extensive knowledge provide assurance that your energy efficiency project will yield both maximum technical performance and financial value.

How to Claim the 179D Deduction

When performing a no-cost benefit analysis for the §179D deduction, you will need to provide a tax preparer with requested information such as:

• Name of legal owner
• Project name and address
• Energy systems to be studied (lighting, HVAC, envelope, or whole building)
• Building usage
• Total square footage of space of the energy efficiencies 
• Placed in-service date
• Project cost

 

Benefit Illustration for Building Owner Commercial Roofing

Based on the energy efficiency attained and application of Revenue Procedure 2011-14, an client was allowed to claim the full §179D deduction, amounting to $1.80 per s/f—totaling $516,600 with no need to amend tax returns.

Benefit Illustration for Architect Commercial Roofing

Based on the square footage of the multiple government buildings worked on as well as the sustainable design implemented, an architecture firm was ultimately entitled to deductions nearing $7,000,000 over a 5-year span.
