Taylor Hill & Carter Harkins don’t look like app guys or serial startup guys. They look like down-to-earth, get your hands dirty, and solve real-world problems guys — and they are. They just happen to use software to do it. Closing Commander™ is an award-winning sales follow-up automation system designed to help contractors and service businesses close more open estimates, and it’s already creating a lot of buzz.

The proof is in the pudding, as they say — if business software isn’t providing real value, it’s just another of many that will be tried and quickly forgotten. But Closing Commander™ has proved its worth many times over for many businesses, sometimes bringing in tens or hundreds of thousands of additional dollars in just months.

Why does it work and why was it created by the co-founders of a digital marketing company and a blue collar podcast, not by some Silicon Valley software guys? Because Taylor and Carter get their hands dirty and solve real-world problems, remember?

They’ve worked with hundreds of business owners across dozens of contractor specialties. As business owners themselves, they know that time is our most valuable and limited resource, so they set out to provide a time-saving solution to the metaphorical graveyard where estimates and quotes go to die.

Thus, Closing Commander™ was born. It’s a proven solution that automates the follow-up process using the Rule of Seven Touches to help businesses of all sizes close more estimates and win more bids, without the extra legwork. It’s smart, it’s easy, and it really works — we’ve got the case studies, success stories, and awards to prove it!
