Product Diversification Grows Business

Product Diversification Grows Business

- Kevin Booth, Owner, Gutter Helmet® of North Florida

As the previous owner of one of the largest sunroom dealers in the country, with average ticket sales of 16k, I was skeptical of owning a gutter protection company predicated on a ticket value only a fraction of that amount. Nevertheless, impressed by the organizational skills of Southeastern Metals, Inc., I decided to take a chance and dive in…

Much to my surprise and looking back these past 8 years, although the ticket price was considerably less, I was able to sell more products at a higher margin, which consequently drove my revenue up considerably, and made the whole project quite profitable.  Additionally, the dealer network is very encouraging and well organized.

In short, was a great change for my professional career and I would recommend it to anyone interested in the home improvement business.

With over thirty years of history, Gutter Helmet® is the pioneer and the undisputed leader in the gutter protection industry. A total commitment to product innovation and refinement coupled with a professional dealer network, Gutter Helmet® is America’s #1 choice for gutter protection. In 2005 Southeastern Metals Mfg. (a Gibraltar Industries Company) acquired Gutter Helmet® as part of a strategic acquisition. Southeastern Metals is headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida and is a leading manufacturer of building products. Every product made by the company is precision engineered and manufactured to the highest standards, promoting greater durability and ensuring structural integrity after installation.  Click here to find out how to become a dealer today.
