    Marcus shares the raw truth about his path to $2 million in sales volume across 12 projects in just 6 months of active marketing in Utah. But this success didn't come without lessons learned the hard way - including why he had to completely pivot from the Illinois market and start over.

    What You'll Learn:

    Market Selection Mastery : The critical factors that make or break an ADU business, including municipality regulations, home values, and market awareness

    The Complete Sales System : Marcus breaks down his proven process from discovery calls to contract signing, including how to handle financing conversations and avoid common pitfalls

    Scaling Strategies : How to structure your team, implement systems, and maintain quality while growing rapidly

    Pricing Insights : Why Utah projects range from $200K to over $300K and how lot sizes and local regulations impact your average ticket

    Common Mistakes : The costly errors Marcus made early on and how he restructured his approach to eliminate time-wasters and improve close rates

    Key Takeaways:

    • Why scheduling two appointments from every sales meeting is crucial
    • The importance of getting financial commitments early in the process
    • How to identify markets ripe for ADU development
    • The difference between accessory dwelling units and accessory structures
    • Why builder quality and sales expertise must go hand-in-hand

    Whether you're considering starting an ADU business, struggling to scale your existing operation, or simply curious about this booming industry, Marcus provides actionable insights from someone who's successfully navigated the challenges and built a thriving business from scratch.

  • From Curious to Closed: How to Master the 3 Commitment Stages and 12 Decisions That Actually Close ADU Deals
    Aug 4 2025

    In this episode, Clay sits down with Christina Henderson, founder of The ADU Sales Coach and a 25-year veteran of the home building industry, to break down the exact sales system that's helping ADU builders across the country close more deals and avoid the common pitfalls that kill sales.

    What You'll Learn:

    The 3 Commitment Stages: How to identify whether your prospect is curious, committed, or ready to buy (and why speaking the wrong language kills your sale)

    The 12 Decisions Framework: The specific decisions every ADU buyer must make before they'll sign a contract - and how to close each one systematically

    Avoiding the "Sales Graveyard": Why financing is where most ADU deals go to die, and Christina's proven talk tracks for live-transferring prospects to lenders while staying in control of the process

    The Discovery Call Strategy: How a 45-minute virtual consultation can qualify prospects and prevent wasted site visits with tire-kickers

    One-Visit Close System: The exact process for presenting quotes, handling payment shock, and asking for the sale during your site visit

    The Biggest Mistakes: Why asking prospects to buy too soon destroys rapport, and why never asking at all leaves money on the table (plus the psychology behind asking 5-8 times)

    Key Takeaways:

    • 90-95% of ADU prospects start as "curious" buyers who need education, not just pricing
    • The biggest sales killer is emailing quotes instead of presenting them live
    • Your toughest competition is "the conversation that happens without you"
    • Rapport isn't about being friendly - it's about understanding your customer's decision-making process

    Whether you're a general contractor selling 2-4 ADUs per year or an established builder looking to scale to 10+ units monthly, this episode gives you the roadmap to transform curious prospects into signed contracts.

    Guest Bio: Christina Henderson has 25 years of experience in new construction sales, from selling homes for major builders to training national sales teams. She created ADU Sales Mastery, the first sales training developed exclusively for ADU sales, and now helps ADU builders nationwide increase their close rates and build scalable sales systems.
