3 Reasons Why You Should be Offering Financing
Why Wouldn’t You Be?
The GreenSky® Program offers a variety of financing plans to help your Customers envision their ideal project and manage the expense. That’s why it’s important to make the topic of financing and flexible payment options a part of your standard sales process and your marketing program.
Offering Payment Options is Important Because You Have the Opportunity to:
- Meet Customer Expectations- Today's consumers may expect you to offer financing as a way to support – or, even, increase – their buying power. In addition, many homeowners may not have the necessary cash to pay for their project all at once, especially if faced with the unexpected expense of a new HVAC system or roof.
- Help Customers Find their Best Project – By offering attractive loan terms (including promotional financing), you have the opportunity to turn a “nice” project into an amazing, “we love it!” project.
- Grow Your Business – Offering financing may give you the opportunity to increase the average order size. Delighted Customers may also lead to better reviews, more referrals, and an increase in repeat business.
