Hey guys,
I've been lurking on this forum for quite some time now but never posted as all the info I needed I searched for etc and started my business with this knowledge.
I'm very early stages, have a van with kit, branded clothing, website and Facebook page went live earlier this week so I'm literally just starting to get into the industry.
My issue is with canvassing.
I know I'm probably going to get a bit of flak for this as I've spent a total of 2 nights doing it so not long but I'm really struggling with getting customers. I've picked up a grand total of 1 in that time....
It's unbelievably demoralizing to get hundreds of no's a night how do you guys do it? I wear branded jacket, am polite have a short 'speech' and are reasonably confident although this takes a battering as the evening progresses..
Is there a knack to this? All I seem to get is we already have a cleaner (which I don't believe half the time looking at some houses) or a no thanks
