Have You Ever Door Knocked for Deals?
My first job in life was delivering the Town Talk newspaper. It was a free newspaper you’d deliver to every house and then go door to door to collect the fee monthly. I’d get half of that collection, plus $6 per week as my total compensation.
My first business was mowing lawns. My best friend & business partner, Paul Haggarty, usually preferred that I was the one who’d go knock on doors to ask for business. He probably remembers it exactly the opposite, if I had to bet! We made good money that summer which covered the cost of the equipment, our lifestyle, & even a few BMX bikes. We were all about that in 1992.
Notice how both of those early successes included knocking on doors for business? Many of my mentors have had experience door knocking in their early careers. Chris, a friend of mine, recently bought Easter wreaths from an online wholesaler, developed a script, and then took both of his young daughters door to door to sell them at $10 each. His goal is to develop sales skills early in life. They made enough money to buy an above ground pool-which they love & cherish as fruits of their own labor.
Do You Have Door Knocking Experience?
I’m hoping someone reading this has experience as either a successful door to door salesperson OR a leader who has developed a door knocking team. I’m talking a lot more professional than the experience I mentioned above.
I’m hoping to form a partnership with someone who can build a team of door knock reps to knock on the doors of the owners of properties which we are specifically interested in buying & set appointments for our Acquisition Manager to close the deal. If this is you, please reply back and let’s talk soon.
If you happen to live in the Atlanta, Chicago, or Philadelphia region and would like to be a door to door sales rep to book appointments for us, please reply back with a resume and a cover letter explaining the area you’d be willing to work. We pay per qualified appointment, commission only.
