Close More Sales Using HTA Tools. This three-step approach gives your sales conversations authority, confidence, and consistent results. It guides you from first contact to close while leveraging your HTA credibility at every step. This sequence is designed for HTA Certified integrators selling luxury and high-end residential projects.
It reflects how top-performing integrators position, qualify, and close projects.
Step 1:
Lead with Immediate Trust
Start strong by using an HTA Elevator Pitch at the very beginning of your sales conversation. It clearly differentiates you from typical “AV Guys,” elevates your professional status, and lowers client anxiety.
After your conversation, follow up with the HTA Certification Defined link or an internal page on your site that explains HTA Certification. This becomes your credibility anchor that strengthens trust in your firm.
Step 2:
Guide the Budget Conversation with Confidence
Introduce the HTA Budget Calculator early in the discovery phase. This tool helps you prequalify prospects, manage expectations, and take the mystery out of costs.
It also deflects sticker shock (blame the HTA!) and creates alignment from day one.
Step 3:
Let HTA Help You Close
When a deal is in motion, ask us for a reference via text, email, or a personal call on your behalf.
Then, in your proposal, include your custom HTA testimonial letter and the HTA proposal insert. These elements remind your prospect that you are elite, vetted, and backed by a third-party standard. Do you need help closing a deal right now?
Pro Tip
For consultation and design fees, consider pricing them at 3 to 5 percent of the low end of the budget range generated by the HTA Budget Calculator. This positions your design work as professional and proportionate to the scope.
