Introduction

How to Bundle Installation + Add-Ons for Higher Ticket is a practical framework for trades, retail-installers, and home-improvement brands. Instead of quoting a bare-bones install and hoping for upgrades later, you’ll architect Good/Better/Best bundles that bake in the labor, materials, and logical add-ons your best customers already buy—then present them with clean visuals and two-option booking.

Compliance & ethics: disclose financing terms, avoid drip pricing, include permits/code notes where applicable, and never bundle unnecessary items. How to Bundle Installation + Add-Ons for Higher Ticket works long-term only when bundles are truthful, optional, and outcome-focused.

1) Why “How to Bundle Installation + Add-Ons for Higher Ticket” Works

• Outcome-first: customers buy the result—performance, safety, look—not parts.
• Choice architecture: Good/Better/Best reduces analysis paralysis vs. a la carte chaos.
• Operational ease: repeatable kits speed install time and reduce call-backs.
• Perceived value: convenience, guarantees, and faster timelines anchor premium pricing.

2) Offer Map: Core • Critical • Comfort • Cosmetic

3) Good/Better/Best Templates (Service-Ready)

Rename bundles to match your niche (e.g., “Storm-Ready,” “Spa Quiet,” “Showroom Finish”).

4) Pricing Math: Margin Guardrails & Anchors

• Guardrails: set minimum blended margin for each bundle (e.g., 45%/52%/58%).
• Anchoring: present BEST first; show monthly payment (financing) and total.
• Value lines: list 3–5 outcomes per bundle; avoid part-by-part line items.

Quick Calculator (example factors)
Bundle Price = (Direct Materials + Labor + Overhead Allocation) / (1 - Target Margin)

Avoid “drip fees.” If permits/haul-outs vary, label them as “estimates pending site review.”

5) Sales Scripts That Present Bundles Without Pressure

Discovery → Bundle Bridge
“Given your goals (quieter / longer life / faster timeline), most clients pick our Performance or Premium packages. Here’s the 60-second difference.”

Two-Option Close
“Want the Performance package next Thursday 4:30 or Saturday 10:30? We’ll include the prep checklist today.”

Price Probe → Value Frame
“Great question. The Premium is higher because it includes [critical + comfort upgrades] and the first-year checkup, which cuts call-backs and keeps warranty intact.”

6) Landing Pages & Visual Menus

• Hero shows BEST outcome photo + clear monthly payment (if financing).
• Three-column bundle grid with outcomes, not part lists.
• “What’s included” modal + compliance notes (permits, code, disclaimers).
• CTA module: two-option booking or virtual estimate.

7) Financing & Warranty Positioning

• Lead with outcomes: quieter, safer, faster—not “cheap payments.”
• Offer soft-pull pre-qual; show a mid-tier example APR/range with disclaimer.
• Tie Best bundle to extended labor warranty and first-year checkup.

8) Operations: SKUs, Checklists, and QA

• Bundle SKUs (GOOD/BETTER/BEST) with sub-tasks in your CRM/dispatch tool.
• Install checklists per bundle; photo documentation for QA.
• Post-install handoff: care guide PDF + review request + referral card.

Standardize filenames: bundle-good-checklist.pdf • bundle-premium-care.pdf.
