What We've Learned from 27M Conversations

In this session, you’ll get a rare, data-backed look into what actually drives results in home building sales conversations. Patrick Johnson from Rilla will unpack insights drawn from over 27 million real-world sales calls, revealing the communication habits, customer cues, and coaching patterns that separate top-performing sales teams from the rest.

From identifying the phrases that build trust to spotting the subtle talk tracks that increase conversion rates, we’ll explore how data can now give leaders a clear picture of what’s happening in every conversation — without needing to listen to every call. Patrick will also share benchmarks across the industry, so you can see where your team stands and where the biggest opportunities lie.

By the end of the webinar, you’ll have a fresh perspective on how to coach smarter, sell faster, and close more confidently using insights hiding in plain sight — your own sales conversations.
