What Window Salesmen Aren’t Telling You (Until It’s Too Late)

Hey guys, Sean with American Window Concepts. And in today's video, I'm going to talk about maybe what salesmen aren't telling you whenever they're in your home. And let's get into that. So, when I'm talking about a salesperson coming into your house, what they're not telling you, it's more of overselling you. I've heard stories in the past, even before I started my business, when I was a service technician, I would hear the customer say, "Well, this sales guy told me that these windows stop all the sound. Why am I still hearing my neighbor's lawn mower?" My salesperson told me that these windows are going to stop all the heat. But for some reason, when I walk up to the window, I can still feel a little bit of heat. Or, and this is a true story, I thought these windows were bulletproof. They had something crack their glass, like a lawn mower shot a rock and cracked their exterior pane. And now they're just sitting there going, "Man, I thought these things were supposed to stop a bullet. How is a rock going to actually break my glass?" And these are all real stories and accounts that I've heard for years and years and years in window sales. Like, as long as I've been doing windows, I've heard these stories. This is coming from them being oversold. They're being told things that just aren't true and leads them to this assumption like, "Hey, I can't believe I got duped into buying a window that doesn't stop all heat." Well, the truth is, there ain't a window out there that can do that. My point is this. When you have somebody in your house, and a lot of times these people are only getting paid if they sell you something. So, they're going to be a little more pushier trying to get you to sign Johnny on the spot. and they don't want to leave the opportunity for you to sign with somebody else. When I say get multiple quotes, this is the reason why is because out of three or four people who come into your house, you might have a couple of them that are way more pushy and offer you tons of information. A lot of times I'll tell people, don't just take my word for it about the heat gain, sound transfer, all of that. do some homework as well and look into the window brands that you're interested in and see what the actual performances are because they'll supply that to you online, usually on their website. That's why I make these videos because I want people to know when you're window shopping that right there's so many different brands of windows. There's different um you know performance datas and I want you to know that going into something like this. And you always feel way more confident when you're about to buy something when you're educated about something, right? All right, guys. Keep doing what you're doing. Do your homework before you go out and buy windows and make it a great day.
