Take-Aways
- Dress for Success, not too formal, but sharp. Josh suggests a nice button-down shirt and slacks.
- Be positive. Shake off whatever happens today. The goal is to meet the neighbor and get to know the houses.
- Be prepared. Know your Numbers.
Door Knocking Script
Step Back a bit and smile. Say Hi or Hello. Wait for them to respond. Don’t pitch instantly. Introduce yourself and say “Hi, My name is (insert name here). I work with (company), just a stone’s throw away on (street). We’ve been selling a lot of houses here in (neighborhood) lately this season and we are trying to sell a few more and I was wondering if you could help me out. (Stop).
You are explaining who you are and that you are licensed. You explain you are a neighborhood specialist. Then you are offering the “out” with helping me out.
