Approaching the door in
door to door roofing sales.

00:00:02.370 --> 00:00:06.330
We might have things like a
dog or a camera, and we need to

00:00:06.330 --> 00:00:08.400
know, are we set up for success?

00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:11.340
How are people gonna be perceiving
us when they maybe look through that

00:00:11.340 --> 00:00:14.760
window or pop into that camera and
they wanna know who's showing up?

00:00:14.765 --> 00:00:15.300
What do they want?

00:00:15.330 --> 00:00:16.770
Because I want you to
think of this right now.

00:00:17.010 --> 00:00:18.870
Do an exercise with me and do me a favor.

00:00:19.260 --> 00:00:20.760
If you're driving, don't do this.

00:00:21.060 --> 00:00:21.930
Close your eyes and think.

00:00:22.619 --> 00:00:23.640
It's five 30 at night.

00:00:23.849 --> 00:00:24.689
It's Tuesday night.

00:00:24.900 --> 00:00:26.669
You just got home from
work a little early.

00:00:26.669 --> 00:00:28.200
You grab an early dinner with the family.

00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:29.099
After dinner.

00:00:29.099 --> 00:00:31.979
You sit down on the couch, you're hanging
out, and then all of a sudden you hear it.

00:00:32.129 --> 00:00:34.050
Rap, rap, rap, rap, rap at your door.

00:00:34.410 --> 00:00:36.030
What are the two things
that come through your mind?

00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:37.680
Number one, you get up.

00:00:37.685 --> 00:00:40.290
You look at your wife, your husband,
your girlfriend, your boyfriend,

00:00:40.769 --> 00:00:42.239
kids, and you say, Hey, who's this?

00:00:42.239 --> 00:00:43.379
Is anyone expecting anything?

00:00:43.620 --> 00:00:44.820
So immediately you think, who is it?

00:00:45.090 --> 00:00:47.250
And then as you get up and you
walk to go answer that door,

00:00:47.250 --> 00:00:48.510
you're thinking, What did I.

00:00:49.305 --> 00:00:52.245
So now that we know exactly
what people are thinking, we can

00:00:52.245 --> 00:00:55.765
use this to then approach the
door in the best way possible.

00:00:55.875 --> 00:00:59.055
So before we get to it, just wanna
say quick welcome or welcome back.

All right.

00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:34.890
Now let's get started
approaching the door.

00:01:34.890 --> 00:01:37.500
So let's take a look at what we
got here On this door, we've got

00:01:37.500 --> 00:01:39.360
a big window, which you can see
pretty much through the house.

00:01:39.360 --> 00:01:43.350
We've got a camera up there, so we know
that that person or homeowners, and

00:01:43.350 --> 00:01:46.830
especially look at this, walking up
to the door, We've got these windows

00:01:46.830 --> 00:01:50.790
right here so we know if we pull up
or walking to this house, we've got

00:01:50.820 --> 00:01:52.140
people that could be seeing us here.

00:01:52.320 --> 00:01:56.340
We're gonna be approaching the
door and we've got, again, we got

00:01:56.340 --> 00:01:57.600
the camera, we got the window.

00:01:57.600 --> 00:02:00.270
So we need to know
someone saying, Who is it?

00:02:00.270 --> 00:02:00.480
What do.

00:02:01.175 --> 00:02:04.145
Now number one, we need to
walk up with assertiveness.

00:02:04.205 --> 00:02:04.985
Write that down.

00:02:04.985 --> 00:02:08.134
Being assertive, meaning you're showing
up on purpose, you're not looking around

00:02:08.134 --> 00:02:10.505
being like, Oh, is it okay that I'm here?

00:02:10.685 --> 00:02:14.195
Second, guessing yourself and looking
fishy, you gotta show up on a mission.

00:02:14.505 --> 00:02:15.405
Okay, that's number one.

00:02:15.645 --> 00:02:19.215
Number two, what you need to do is smile.

00:02:19.515 --> 00:02:22.425
So many people, every time we're
doing these events, I just got back

00:02:22.425 --> 00:02:24.225
from a few Owens Corning events here.

00:02:24.225 --> 00:02:27.345
We're doing two or three a week, and
every time we get up to a role play,

00:02:27.635 --> 00:02:31.485
everyone's really straight faced and very,
very stern, and I'm like, Just smile.

00:02:31.485 --> 00:02:32.295
We're in sales.

00:02:32.445 --> 00:02:34.665
If I walked up to this
door as a stranger, like.

00:02:35.715 --> 00:02:36.435
On a mission, right?

00:02:36.435 --> 00:02:40.665
I'm here to serve or like this, who's
gonna feel more welcoming and warm?

00:02:40.665 --> 00:02:42.285
So remember to just smile.

00:02:42.665 --> 00:02:45.165
Remember, people are seeing
you before you see them.

00:02:45.405 --> 00:02:45.675
All right?

00:02:45.705 --> 00:02:46.365
So that's number two.

00:02:46.785 --> 00:02:51.705
Number three, you want to acknowledge
anywhere that they might be looking.

00:02:51.710 --> 00:02:55.265
So if you see that little thing up
there, one of the first things that

00:02:55.265 --> 00:02:56.835
I'm gonna do is acknowledge that.

00:02:57.465 --> 00:02:59.204
I'm gonna give it a little wave why?

00:02:59.204 --> 00:03:00.555
It's gonna show that I'm confident.

00:03:00.614 --> 00:03:02.204
It's gonna show that I'm
assertive and that I'm here for

00:03:02.204 --> 00:03:03.825
a reason and I acknowledge them.

00:03:04.035 --> 00:03:07.484
If I see windows like right here,
this little pup staring at me, I'm

00:03:07.484 --> 00:03:09.795
gonna look right in that window
and say, Hey, you know, hey,

00:03:10.215 --> 00:03:11.445
maybe someone's coming behind it.

00:03:11.565 --> 00:03:13.755
People in the house know the dog's
at the window, the dog's the door.

00:03:13.760 --> 00:03:16.095
Someone might be there, so I'm
gonna come in a assertively.

00:03:16.125 --> 00:03:18.165
Now the other thing is, if
I have something in my hand,

00:03:18.165 --> 00:03:19.905
which, all right, let's be real.

00:03:19.995 --> 00:03:22.005
Some people say, Show up empty handed.

00:03:22.155 --> 00:03:23.595
Otherwise, you look like a solicitor.

00:03:23.600 --> 00:03:25.275
Other people like to
show up with something.

00:03:25.845 --> 00:03:26.505
I don't really.

00:03:27.359 --> 00:03:28.739
Feel strongly one way or another.

00:03:28.980 --> 00:03:30.450
What I want is for you
to feel comfortable.

00:03:30.899 --> 00:03:36.660
What I did is I always had my notepad
and or clipboard or folio with me because

00:03:36.665 --> 00:03:37.920
it showed that I was professional.

00:03:37.920 --> 00:03:39.839
I was there for a reason and I
could take notes if I needed to.

00:03:40.049 --> 00:03:42.450
But if I have my door hangers, like
letters that I include in my marketing

00:03:42.450 --> 00:03:45.959
battle pack that are folded up, I'm gonna
hold that up in case they're not home

00:03:46.109 --> 00:03:47.519
to show that I'm there for a reason.

00:03:47.519 --> 00:03:51.089
Peak their curiosity if they check that
ring, cuz guess what else is happening?

00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:54.120
As I show up right here,
I am now on the front.

00:03:54.495 --> 00:03:56.385
And that camera is right there.

00:03:56.864 --> 00:04:02.325
The person's phone is likely
dinging with a human's been noticed

00:04:02.329 --> 00:04:04.125
on camera movement detected.

00:04:04.305 --> 00:04:07.245
So when I see that and I know that that
camera's gonna be checked later, if

00:04:07.245 --> 00:04:10.245
they're not home, I'm gonna hold up my
little door hanger letter on purpose.

00:04:10.365 --> 00:04:13.845
So when I approach the door and I
tape it to the door, when they get

00:04:13.845 --> 00:04:16.755
home, they saw the video already,
then they see that there's a higher

00:04:16.755 --> 00:04:18.464
likelihood of them ringing it.

00:04:18.464 --> 00:04:21.855
So again, we wanna acknowledge that ring
doorbell, and we want to acknowledge

00:04:21.945 --> 00:04:23.505
the window anywhere that they might be.

00:04:24.330 --> 00:04:27.810
Seeing us now, final piece
is, what do we see right here?

00:04:28.550 --> 00:04:30.390
I know this is a unique
situation, but we got a doorbell.

00:04:30.420 --> 00:04:31.260
We got a doorbell right here.

00:04:31.530 --> 00:04:32.550
Do I wanna ring that bell?

00:04:32.940 --> 00:04:36.420
No, I don't because then
people can answer it from away.

00:04:36.630 --> 00:04:39.180
We already know that they got the
notification from the camera on movement.

00:04:39.270 --> 00:04:44.670
So instead, what I wanna do is use a
knock and do I wanna just now I wanna

00:04:44.670 --> 00:04:45.750
really make him curious, curious.

00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:49.110
Right, personal.

00:04:49.410 --> 00:04:50.840
Then I'm gonna step back and I hear 'em.

00:04:50.845 --> 00:04:53.070
Dogs are going, Everyone's
alerted that I'm here.

00:04:53.400 --> 00:04:53.910
I gotta go.

00:04:54.150 --> 00:04:54.930
