Measure windows accurately and document all necessary project details

Prepare quotes and submit complete, accurate orders

Follow up professionally and consistently with customers who do not purchase during the initial consultation

Maintain an organized pipeline and accurate customer records

Provide a complete handoff to our operations team after the sale

What We Are Looking For

A polished communication style and the ability to build trust with different types of customers
