Adam Sand argues AI agents will soon shop for customers, recommending roofing solutions and financing options without human salespeople. Roofing companies can position themselves as the middleman between AI recommendations and buyers. An AI might detect a leaking roof, suggest a $200/month metal roof plan, and complete the purchase automatically.
It's important to understand the direction, the outcome of AI in a general sense. If we're looking at how AI is going to be in less than five to 10 years, we have to understand that AI will shop for you, which means it's going to shop for your customers. Like, being the middleware between the purchase and AI is where the opportunity is, and we have to be ready for that middle ground. When you say, my roof is leaking or my roof looks old, it's going to say, according to your finances, your banking app, you don't have the money to pay for a roof, but you could afford $200 a month. There's a roofing company that's offering $200 a month for a metal roof, and your size of your roof is this much, and they could have it installed in six weeks. If you'd like, I can apply for the financing for you. That is not as far away as you think. So if you don't think someone's just going to order a roof from the AI agent without ever choosing a brand or talking to a salesperson or even going to a website, then you're missing it.
