Great Content Russell… Thanks for sharing and all you do for our community. I built an entire business with door-to-door selling… It works and you do learn to adjust your pitch very fast…. it’s fun and easy once you get your pitch down.
Right! This game is all about having fun with it 🙂
Omg yes… That was my first marketing job. In a way I’m glad that I did it for a while because i learned how to get out of my comfort zone
Same here!!!
You left out the best part… you were doing this in New Jersey. 🤣 We’re notoriously difficult to deal with.
In all seriousness, I agree with all of this because I had the same experience doing pharmaceutical sales. I got rejected multiple times a day but I had to keep going and evolving.
That’s awesome! Never give up 🙂
I owe so much of my success to my 10 years in door-to-door! Great video man.
I agree with your point that they are rejecting the product, not the salesperson. I’ve had people come to our door during political campaign seasons and they are very nice people but once I learn who they are campaigning for, I say no thanks and goodbye. Correction; I first make my pitch for my team and then I say goodbye.
Russell, the quality of your videos is amazing. You should give a raise your editor. Wow. I talk to my son every day while he’s out selling security systems on the street. He’s been door-to-door selling for three years now. He can make a person laugh in 2 seconds after opening the door. And he can make you feel sorry for him just as fast. And he can make you sign a contract you didn’t think you’d be signing 15 minutes earlier. On the streets is where you learn to get the skillz that pay the billz. Excellent video Russell.
I am an introvert myself too and watching you perform in front of thousands of people actually gives me the hope that one day maybe I will also be able to do it!! 😊
You’ve got this!!!
Same I’m an introvert that struggled to talk to people and make friends my whole life and now I’m trying to sell solar door to door 😂
@@thelifeofmarkiis5269 how is it going?
I’m an introvert and the words (one-day + maybe) never served me, not even once. Turn “one-day” into DAY ONE! Look at it like this, by waiting you are burning the non-renewable resource called time, which as it turns out is the MOST valuable resource. Introverts can run the world if we build a system for ourselves! Start being who you want to be today!
@@thelifeofmarkiis5269 exact same bruh
Got so many actionable tips from this video🔥🔥 and I believe is starting something is more important than quitting because gradually we learn how to master it
So glad you liked this one!!!
Great vid. I sold cancer insurance door to door for 4 months.
It wasn’t easy and I definitely learned a lot.
I need to reactivate that muscle again and get in front of these business owners.
Every sales person should watch this! Truly life-changing ways to be a better version of your role!
What were your biggest takeaways of this one?
My business almost failed when I first started! I was forced to go door-to-door and it was the best thing I ever did. Turns out what was killing my business was my fear of rejection and hating sales. From there I build a business with a team of sales people and have worked with some of the biggest brands in the world. I
How did you get people to work for you like what did they do
Earlier I was also having feared for going door 2 door…for cold calling physically…but I found 99.99% responded nicely…0.1% were doing something when I was pitching to them…it builds the stamina…to face RejecTion…failures…mistakes…problemS….Now I am going to be a tough entrepreneur……
Sometimes you have to just clear your mind and do it, not think to much but do it. I started a pressure washing business and door knocking is kind of a last resort for me but I want to be successful and I have bills to pay so I’m just gonna do it. Tomorrow will be my first day even if no one reads this I will update this tomorrow and tell how it went!
That’s awesome!! How did it go? 🙂
@@MarketingSecretsOfficial It was perfect, said a little prayer before I got to the neighborhood for some courage, passed out all of my postcard/ put them on mailbox flags, knocked on doors where the house was very dirty and cars were there. Took 30 minutes and I only went down 1 street, I had one lady tell me to expect a call from them very soon and another man I talked to I gave him a price he seemed happy and said he would be giving us a call! Can’t wait to get out there 2-4 hours tomorrow and see what I can make happen, a quick and professional approach seems to work well, I really appreciate the inspiration you have given me it will change my life!!
@kennetheddleman3382 You still doing D2D power washing? If so, how’s it going?
@@chasingdreams5920 I’ve slowed down on D2d just because of all the no soliciting signs but will start back up soon, I still go mailbox to mailbox with flyers and put yard signs out. I will probably bite the bullet and pay a ticket if someone did call on me because one job would pay for it!
Door to door vs selling from the stage vs social media marketing. 3 totally different mediums. One is completely unsolicited, one happens when a person actually pays to be sold to, and one happens when a person decides to watch a free informational.
Today was my very first day going door to door. I’m super excited to see what I can turn myself into with some time and discipline. Thank you for the video!
Hey I’m going to start doing door to door and I was wondering how did your first interaction go and what would you recommend i focus on?
@@danishadnan8316 it’s super uncomfortable at first but embrace it. The way to get better, every time you fail at the door. Take a step back and look at what went wrong, and then learn how to fix it. It will just take time but you’ll adapt. I’m only 3 weeks in and it’s still tough but at least I’m not like a fish out of water anynore
@@americommando6915 did you stick with it?
@@danishadnan8316focus on making conversation with people, it may sound weird but don’t try too hard to sell them start by just getting to know the person and created a conversation
I’m an introvert that started my sale career in the bail bonds industry. That doubled up with selling insurance. I was VERY good on the phones. Now I’m facing my new fear. Door to door solar sales. Actually having to talk to people face without a phone call telling them I’m coming by. I’m onto my second solar company, and hoping to use the skills I’ve already learned to branch out further.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Thank you for giving us great tips!
Fantastic stuff, Russell! I’ve done D2D sales for the past four years, and I feel like I’ve grown more as a person in this job than any other. Trying to “get out of my own way” is always the biggest challenge. I had a supervisor who said that the most difficult door to get through is your own car door! Anyway, wonderful stuff. Incidentally, much respect for your missionary D2D days! I only wish my fellow evangelical brothers and sisters would be so bold and compassionate as to knock on a stranger’s door. Anyway, best to you. Looking forward to your future videos.
I just started 2.5 weeks ago. And I want to quit bc I just can’t stand all the hate I get. I am used to getting people loving me after meeting them. But this job doesn’t leave me an opportunity to let the person get to know me. What can you say that might help me stay motivated like I was the first 2 weeks
@alecgutierrez1709 I can certainly relate to the pain of having to navigate all the hate that can flow our way. It can really get to all of us who go D2D. At the expense of sounding formulaic, I would really encourage you to give it more time. For me, I came to realize that the hate is never really personal. They don’t know us like our closest friends and family know us. Some folks seem to find it therapeutic to vent on complete strangers! For me, I have found that validation is a powerful tool to bring difficult customers down a notch. In other words, when they start venting (hating) on us, I will often times reply by saying, “Mr. (Customer), you have every right to be frustrated. I think I would feel exactly the same way as you if that happened to me….” It’s amazing how such validation can de-escalate challenging customers. Most of them just want to be validated. Then, more often than not, I can move the conversation forward and overcome their objections. I might not always close that particular sale, but at least I can leave the door feeling like some positivity has been restored. Anyway, that is just a thought. I hope you give it some time. It truly does get easier. Before long, the anxiety will become less, and you will find yourself really enjoying D2D. Just takes time and persistence. Best to you!
@@jesusislord27 thank you for your reply. I will continue to work because I do agree with you and I do think that it can be a great career but also doing it to carry on the legacy of you haha.
Fr tho thank you for your response. That was dope
@alecgutierrez1709 So glad you plan to stay with it! Like any job, D2D has its mix of rewards and challenges, but overall, I would say it is the most fun job I’ve ever had. It’s great not being stuck behind a desk all day! Best of luck to you!
im about 2 weeks out from completing my mission! I actually never thought of it as selling a product though what a cool comparison! I’m super excited to get into the marketing game
I started my business 25 years ago with no sales experience or money therefore I had to knock on business doors to get my business off the ground and did this for about 5 years. Today I still own the business and have achieved all my financial goals. I watched your video and thought to myself that you are spot on with what you say on your video. I congratulate you on this and I have never seen a video on this topic before, well done.
Love this comment
I loved the video which I can totally relate to.
