    I sometimes like knocking with a partner, because it keeps me from getting bored AND if I'm with someone who's wearing the same polo/logo as me, it seems more legit. Also showing gratitude towards those who answer and hear you out EVEN IF they aren't a fit, I appreciate that they gave me a chance and I let them know that! I walk away not with a deal, HOWEVER I feel warm and fuzzy after a heart felt thank you.

    Dig the gratitude for sure! I get asked a lot about "tag teaming" at the door. There's a lot to be said about the effectiveness, but I always bring this up. Will it 2x or more your sales productivity? If the answer is YES, keep it up. If not, I would go solo. This is only to respect your time and be efficient ya know? Everything else you talked about with gratitude is spot on!!

    Adam, oh Adam… I’ve been doing door to door sales for the past 3 years, and I want to say thank you. THANK YOU. I recently left a restoration company with 3 million in my pipeline ready to get built in spring, (knocked all winter long) and the company got bought out by private investors that changed the way the company paid commissions. I made a lateral change to a different roofing company and I am running into burnout. The type of burn out where I feel distant with reality… anyway…. Here I am up at 1am worrying about how I am going to muster up the ability to “smash my income goals” and be able to pay for a wedding for my fiancé. Your video made me realize that I am not the only one that runs into burnout.. thank you again for posting yet another great masterpiece!

My boss is asking me to be more assertive with my presentation. He’s suggesting I make a quick opener and then ask the customer to “come inside” so we can discuss.
