Are your sales reps still managing million-dollar deals with spreadsheets and sticky notes?

In this episode of The Platinum Business Break, Dan P. Owens goes full throttle on why the building products industry is lagging behind in CRM adoption—and what it’s costing you.

With only 32% of construction and building products companies using a CRM, it’s no wonder so many teams are disorganized, reactive, and stuck in “vendor mode.” As Dan Kennedy famously said, “Vendor means commodity.” And when you're a commodity, you're just another bid in the inbox.

Dan introduces Platinum Business AI—a CRM built specifically for manufacturers, contractors, and rep groups—and explains how it reinforces DISC-based sales training through behavior tracking, guided pipelines, quote management, and real project lead integration from tools like Dodge and ConstructConnect.

If you’re ready to:
✅ Reinforce your sales training with real structure
✅ Track every quote, follow-up, and project stage
✅ Win deals without racing to the bottom on price...

…this episode is your wake-up call.
