Leap is passionate about empowering and educating local youth to use and have access to technology, proven by their partnership with the Boys and Girls Club. 

It is no secret that Baltimore youth experience a digital divide. As technology continues to transform our world, it becomes increasingly more important to ensure that no one in the next generation of a digitalized world gets left behind. Not everyone has access to certain types of technology, so providing access and education is a door-opening opportunity for many historically under-served youth.  

That is why Leap is taking its relationship with empowering contractors to digitize their business process to the next level, working to bring technology to the Boys and Girls Club of Metropolitan Baltimore. 

The Boys and Girls Club of Metropolitan Baltimore “ensures every child has access to a great future by providing caring mentors, a safe environment, high-quality programs, and unique experiences.” Leap happily partnered with the Boys and Girls Club to serve this mission, working to give the members of this club access to technology through a series of fundraising events that include car washes, lemonade stands and partner outreach.  

Thanks to Tech for Tots sponsors RoofScope, EnerBank, JobNimbus and CompanyCam, Leap was able to gift the Boys and Girls Club a MacBook Pro, editing software for podcasts, eight Chromebooks, charger station strips, a PC Desktop with gaming and coding capabilities and two mobile microphones.  

As the world becomes more digitized, digital inclusion and equal access to technology are more important than ever. Empowering, educating and providing access to these technologies is one of the most profound ways to work towards bridging the digital divide and bringing a bright future to all.

]]> Top 4 Things Leap Learned at IRE https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/post/top-4-things-leap-learned-at-ire top-4-things-leap-learned-at-ire Sat, 02 Apr 2022 09:00:00 PDT

What is top of the mind of every roofing contractor after the tradeshow season? 

Tradeshow season has come and gone, and contractors are now looking to apply what they have learned during the slower season to their business. The Leap team was at IRE, attending sessions, presenting a few themselves and talking to hundreds of roofing contractors. Read on to learn about their takeaways from IRE.  

1 - How to hire and keep employees.  

“Technology alters your hiring pool. Drones allow you to hire successful sales professionals that have no interest in climbing a roof.” says Chief Revenue Officer of Loveland Innovations Kevin Wunder. “A roofing contractor in Texas hired a school principal as a Licensed drone pilot for their roofing company.”  

Director, Workforce Development at the Vinyl Rob Balfanz recommended connecting with trade schools and community colleges that have a Career Technical Education (CTE) program and give talks on why the industry is a good employer. He also said that other home improvement verticals may be hiring away the pool of contractors from roofing businesses, so an urgency is required. 

2 - Communicating timelines to customers.  

VP Marketing at Leap Shashi Bellamkonda’s takeaways are: 

  • Keep the customers constantly informed about the supply chain delays  

  • Educate the customer on the situation every business is facing with the supply chain issues  

  • If you do not communicate appropriately with the customers, you run the risk of them thinking your company is delaying things and not supply chain issues   

3 - Creating good estimates and not losing money on them.  

COO Cotney Attorneys & Consultants John Kenney spoke about “Estimating the Right Way.” Estimating is a very key function that determines the profitability of the business. Top points from his talk:  

  • Train your estimators well, wrong estimates can make you go out of business  

  • Do not make estimating a multi-tasking function of another employee like a takeoff person  

  • Create an estimating process and hand-off procedure to the project managers  

  • Avoid mathematical errors and ask clarification questions  

  • Be careful about bidding pricing in your contracts if the pricing is unknown. Use a resource to help you mitigate the risk of renegotiating pricing 

4 - Adding new products like windows and doors to your roofing business.  

Beacon Building Products’ Erik Zadrozny, Justin Powell, Greg Bloom lead a session for roofing contractors teaching roofing contractors to add windows and doors to their portfolios.

Leap ranks among Inc. Magazine's list of the fastest-growing private companies in the Mid-Atlantic region with a three-year growth rate of 272%.

Inc. magazine today revealed that Leap, the leading business and sales platform for home service contractors, is No. 63 on its third annual Inc. 5000 Regionals: Mid-Atlantic list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies based in Washington, D.C., Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia. Based in Columbia, Maryland, Leap is ranked amongst the highest performing companies on this prestigious list that uniquely captures the dynamic economic segment of independent small business.

The recognition comes at a moment of significant growth for the company, which received a majority growth investment from private equity firm Nexa Equity LLC in December 2021. Leap has also been active in expanding its offerings to support customer growth and retention, most recently announcing the acquisition of CRM and project management platform JobProgress and developing new platform integrations with industry partners such as CompanyCam.

"For the past year, our team has energetically worked to reach new customers, enhance our product and grow our business, and we're thrilled to see those efforts recognized with this placement on the Inc. 5000 Regionals list for a second straight year," said Patrick Fingles, CEO of Leap. "I'm proud of the hard work and dedication our team has devoted to our customers and look forward to what we'll be able to accomplish in 2022."

The companies on this list show a remarkable rate of growth across all industries in the Mid-Atlantic region. Between 2018 and 2020, these 131 private companies had an average growth rate of 161% percent and, in 2020 alone, they added 7,365 jobs and $1.9 billion to the Mid-Atlantic region's economy. Companies based in the Richmond and Washington, D.C., areas had the highest growth rate overall. Complete results of the Inc. 5000 Regionals: Mid-Atlantic, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, metro area, and other criteria, can be found at inc.com/mid-atlantic starting March 15, 2022.

"This year's Inc. 5000 Regional winners represent one of the most exceptional and exciting lists of America's off-the-charts growth companies. They're disrupters and job creators, and all delivered an outsize impact on the economy. Remember their names and follow their lead. These are the companies you'll be hearing about for years to come," says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc.

Leap experienced three-year revenue growth of 272%, positioning them near the top of the Inc. 5000 Regionals: Mid-Atlantic list. Leap became the first-ever end-to-end contractor sales software application to make the list last year (2021). 

Built and backed by seasoned home improvement professionals, Leap empowers contractors and home services professionals through software that digitizes every step of the in-home sales process. The all-encompassing app includes estimating, financing, contracting and real-time customer communication to simplify and automate sales while eliminating errors and providing streamlined tools to grow a customer's business.

More About Inc. & Inc. 5000 Regionals

Methodology

The 2022 Inc. 5000 Regional are ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2018 and 2020. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2018. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent — not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies — as of December 31, 2019. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2018 is $100,000; the minimum for 2020 is $1 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons.

Kate from Leap catches RCS COO Karen Edwards up on what all the new since last IRE.

Editor's note: The following is the transcript of an interview with Kate Ratcliffe, marketing manager at Leap. You can read the interview below or watch the recorded livestream. 

 

Karen Edwards: Hello everybody, and welcome to the RoofersCoffeeShop Sound Stage at the 2022 International Roofing Expo in New Orleans. Boy, that's a mouthful. I am Karen Edwards. I'm your host for today, and I am being joined by my friend Kate from Leap. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Hi everybody! 

Karen Edwards: Welcome. So it is day two of the show, but for us it's more like day five, because Kate and I have been together since Saturday. We were on the same flight- 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yes, we were. 

Karen Edwards: ...up to the show, and then we went to National Women Roofing day on Sunday. What do you think of that? 

Kate Ratcliffe: I love it. This was my second National Women in Roofing and Leap after I started we really started taking it seriously. And as a company we brought another member on, Sarah. She is our newest member to National Women in Roofing, and it was awesome to share that experience with her. And we're going to start our own council in Baltimore. So if you guys are in the Baltimore area, stay tuned, I'm working on it. 

Karen Edwards: It's coming. 

Kate Ratcliffe: It's coming. And it was just so amazing. The keynote was phenomenal. Actually, I had bad day and I was like, "You know what? I don't have to prescribe to the rules that someone made for me." And that was the whole keynote was you can make your rules about your life, you don't have to follow these things that don't matter. 

Karen Edwards: Society or whoever says you should. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah, it was fantastic. 

Karen Edwards: Wow. I love it. Yeah, so day one of the show was yesterday. It's been a really good busy show. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah. Yeah. It's actually funny. My booth is right there and I can see it and it is packed right now. So if you guys have stopped by and haven't gotten to talk to us, I do apologize, but come back, because we've got a bunch of staff. It's been busy. 

Karen Edwards: And fun swag too. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Oh yeah, lots of fun swag. We always have good swag. 

Karen Edwards: I know, you do. T-shirts, microfiber cloths. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah. All that stuff. Drawstring bags, all of it. 

Karen Edwards: As someone sitting out here looking at your booth, I'm wondering what is Leap? 

Kate Ratcliffe: So Leap is a point-of-sale software. It is going to digitize your entire sales process, streamline it, help you scale. You can go from a three million dollar to $30 million company using our product. We integrate with the CRMs, most of them. And you bring your customer data in and then you can run your entire sales meeting right from the iPad. And you can get a contract, or estimate, or proposal created within about 30 seconds. You could have them sign right there. You could have them pay through the app. Also, we have financial lenders they can apply for financing. The possibilities are endless and we are constantly growing. 

Karen Edwards: And you said something to me the other day about contractors say, "Why didn't I do this sooner?" 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah. Yeah. So at our booth this year actually, we have now just scrolling quotes from our clients. Because it's one thing for me to say this, but it's something to come from a roofing company and someone in your community saying, I can't believe I haven't done this before and I'm never going to go back and it's changed my life. And that's really honestly where it started was it was a roofing salesman who just wanted to make his life easier and now we're sharing that with all of you. 

Karen Edwards: You hear that story so many times in this industry about somebody that they were frustrated. They were tired of doing it this same old way. And they created a solution that has now helped hundreds, and hundreds, and hundreds. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah. He had the option to not share it with the world. And he was like, "You know what? No." And he is here today. He stands on the floor. Every time we come to a show, he loves sharing his creation. 

Karen Edwards: That's fantastic. So you guys have a lot of new stuff. Tell me about that. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah. So we're growing rapidly. And since last IRE since we spoke, we did a very deep integration with CompanyCam. I know everybody uses CompanyCam. 

Karen Edwards: Yeah. They're very popular. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah. And so really that just streamlined the whole process. You don't have to have those two platforms they live with each other now. We did a deep integration with Ingage recently. So your presentation, right in the app. We've got three or four new financial lenders coming on literally this month. February not January. So we have a lot of exciting moving parts and we have a podcast that's doing really well. We also are doing webinars that are education. They're not sales. So we want you guys to learn. So definitely join us for webinars. We've had Rooferscoffeeshop on it before! 

Karen Edwards: I talked about marketing and yeah, just truly a company that is not just trying to force the sale down your throat. They're like, "Let us help you be successful." 

Kate Ratcliffe: That's right. 

Karen Edwards: And in addition to how our solution does that, we want to bring you other speakers in education. And I think that's really cool. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah. Thank you. Our slogan is empowering contractors. That's all we want to do. And it's interesting I wasn't in this community before. And I say community very purposefully. The people here are amazing and they've welcomed me with open arms. We've become friends and now what? I've known you for what? Six months? Something like that. 

Karen Edwards: It was yeah, the last National IRE. Yeah. We did lunches by region. So we had lunch together. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah. That was just you and me and some salad. 

Karen Edwards: Our friends at Owens Corning were there too. Yeah. Yeah, it's great. This is an industry, definitely, as you all know if you're in it that you form lifelong friendships. 

Kate Ratcliffe: Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. And even with other vendors, even our competitors, we are a really good industry to just have allies and friends. And I was just talking about making a dinner reservation and I'm struggling, because so many people all want to go to dinner I can't find a place that will host them. 

Karen Edwards: Big enough. That's funny. So if you are coming to the show and you want to stop by and see Leap, their booth is right there. So it's probably 300 something- 

Kate Ratcliffe: 337. 

Karen Edwards: 337. 

Kate Ratcliffe: You can't miss it. It's the one with the frog. 

Karen Edwards: It's the one with the frog. You've got it on your shirt. Yeah. Look for the frog, stop by and see Leap. If you can't be at the show, we know there were some people that couldn't make it and this is why we're doing these interviews. Visit the RoofersCoffeeShop directory that Leap has on our website, because it has all their information. It has links, videos, all that kind of stuff to help you get in touch with them and schedule a demo and try the product out. So Kate, thank you for coming by.

The strategic combination, backed by Nexa Equity, creates a leading provider of CRM, project management and sales enablement software for home contractors.

Leap, a leading provider of home contractor sales enablement software, today announced the acquisition of JobProgress, a leading workflow and CRM product for home contractors. Together, Leap and JobProgress will serve more than 2,400 home contractors in North America.

JobProgress' product suite offers CRM, project management, scheduling and employee management tools to both exterior and interior residential contractors. As part of Leap, home contractors will now have access to even more tools to help them manage, estimate, record and close deals on a single platform, without the need to use multiple technology providers.

"We are thrilled to announce our acquisition of JobProgress," said Patrick Fingles, CEO at Leap. "Leap already enables home contractors to provide real-time bids to customers on-the-spot. With the addition of JobProgress, the Leap platform will offer even more robust workflow offerings, which we know will be game-changing to our end customers."

The addition of JobProgress better positions Leap to expand its field services solutions to meet the needs of both large and small contractors alike. Leap and JobProgress combined will integrate with over 25 other offerings, further extending the reach of the Leap platform by allowing customers to integrate with even more tools. Integrations and partners have been a cornerstone of the platform's success, and Leap will continue to provide these integrations and maintain loyalty to existing partners.

"JobProgress and Leap have a common vision of building the leading software platform for home contractors, and our team couldn't be more excited to join the Leap family," said David Buzzelli, CEO at JobProgress. "We believe Leap and JobProgress are highly complementary and look forward to what our customers will gain from the combined power of both products."

JobProgress is Leap's first acquisition since Nexa Equity, an application software and fintech-focused private equity firm, invested in the company last year, and accelerates Leap's vision of creating a single, end-to-end business management platform for home contractors. Nexa Equity continues as the majority investor in the combined business, and the founders of Leap and JobProgress will continue to be significant shareholders.

"We are very pleased to support Leap and the management team in the acquisition of JobProgress," said Vlad Besprozvany, managing partner at Nexa Equity. "The platform we are building through the combination of these two companies, will further transform how the home contracting industry conducts business."

By Cass Jacoby, RCS Reporter.  

Leap CEO Steve Stencil teaches you how to help homeowners visualize their home project.  

As an expert contractor, visualizing what a home renovation will look like is almost second nature to you. After all, you have worked on enough projects throughout the years to know. But when you are trying to make a sale, your homeowners aren’t as familiar these kinds of projects to be able to envision the final project.  

That is why the key to winning profitable work with homeowners and increasing your estimate-to-win ratio is to help your homeowners conceptualize the finished project. By helping your homeowner imagine what the completed project will look like, they gain a greater sense of ownership and trust in the project.  

This webinar from Leap is all about helping put you above the competition by giving you tactics to help homeowners best visualize their final project as you pitch it. Learn from Steve Stencil, Founder of Leap, how to best incorporate visual elements into your documents. Steve shows you how upgrading your pitch visually outlines your value to the customer and effectively documents the project plan.  

In this webinar you will also learn: 

  • How to incorporate satellite measurements. 

  • Best practices for presenting your proposal to lead up to the price. 

  • How visuals can continue to add value all the way through to production. 

  • And more! 

You don’t want to miss out on this expert insight on how to level up your estimating pitch, watch the entire webinar now and start increasing your estimate-to-win ratio.
