The New Flat Rate
WHAT IS TNFR’s HISTORY?
OUR STORY
The New Flat Rate originated from a home service company. Over 100 million dollars has been spent teaching Plumbers, Electricians and HVAC techs to sell and upsell. Surprisingly, they still do not sell and upsell in the home? ‘After 20 years of trying to get service men and women to sell in the home I gave up’, says Rodney Koop, CEO of The New Flat Rate. ‘Consequently, I accidently stumbled on the secret to success in sales: The Menu Pricing System!’
Give your technicians The New Flat Rate Menu Pricing System and never again have to say, “Why didn’t you sell them something else?”
The first selling tool that actually sells. Probably the only selling tool that actually sells.
OUR MISSION
To equip contractors with a menu pricing system. One that takes the pressure off their technicians to sell, is easy to implement and doubles their service sales. To be the most profitable pricing system for our members.
WHAT DO WE DO?
TNFR is the answer to traditional flat rate pricing. With TNFR’s menu style pricing, options take the pressure off techs to sell and provides options and peace of mind for the homeowner.
what’s the difference?
Traditional Flat Rate Pricing V.S. Menu Pricing
With flat rate pricing the only way to make more money in the home is to ask the service technician to sell more, in attempts to get your homeowner to buy more.
With Menu Pricing, your customers are given 5 options for every service, repair, or new equipment install you encounter. This takes the guesswork out of pricing, and increases profit.
DANIELLE PUTNAM
PRESIDENT
Danielle Putnam is the President of The New Flat Rate, serves on the Advisory Board for Women in HVACR, and is also the Executive Director for a local non-profit, Family Frameworks. Danielle and Rodney had lengthy conversations about this idea...the idea of pricing with options and helping other contractors to put money in their bank for payroll on Fridays. In early 2011, The New Flat Rate was incorporated, and beta tests were completed in 8 states, proving a concept that could be nurtured and grown.
