I sometimes like knocking with a partner, because it keeps me from getting bored AND if I'm with someone who's wearing the same polo/logo as me, it seems more legit. Also showing gratitude towards those who answer and hear you out EVEN IF they aren't a fit, I appreciate that they gave me a chance and I let them know that! I walk away not with a deal, HOWEVER I feel warm and fuzzy after a heart felt thank you.
Dig the gratitude for sure! I get asked a lot about "tag teaming" at the door. There's a lot to be said about the effectiveness, but I always bring this up. Will it 2x or more your sales productivity? If the answer is YES, keep it up. If not, I would go solo. This is only to respect your time and be efficient ya know? Everything else you talked about with gratitude is spot on!!
Love this comment exactly even if you don’t fit at least listen what I have to offer all get is “ I’m not interested” or “ who is it” Soo I mean how can I explain to the homeowners if they don’t give me a chance
@@michaelmerck7576 Not if you both come across the right way. Door knocking with the wrong person is a problem though. Some people become liabilities rather than assets. One thing I’ve quickly realized
@@vendingservices8900honestly. Personally I'm new to a company as a canvasser and I have a canvass manager but she is a bulldozer she listens to people but she pushes and pushes and pushes to set an appointment and it works but people feel like they didn't have a choice in the end. our company will go back to a map after 6 months or a year and people often remember us. So my thing is I feel you are better off not pushing to hard being respectful and nice and having conversations and getting to know people even if they don't want anything because when we come back they will remember that we were respectful and understanding and that has made tons of people who gave strong No's once before give a strong YES 6 months or a year down the line.
Adam, oh Adam… I’ve been doing door to door sales for the past 3 years, and I want to say thank you. THANK YOU. I recently left a restoration company with 3 million in my pipeline ready to get built in spring, (knocked all winter long) and the company got bought out by private investors that changed the way the company paid commissions. I made a lateral change to a different roofing company and I am running into burnout. The type of burn out where I feel distant with reality… anyway…. Here I am up at 1am worrying about how I am going to muster up the ability to “smash my income goals” and be able to pay for a wedding for my fiancé. Your video made me realize that I am not the only one that runs into burnout.. thank you again for posting yet another great masterpiece!
Thanks my man. YES it can be rough - no denying that. It's all about personal development and learning to deflect the rejection and tough times. Hope this video helps!
At 5:00 mins you mentioned that it was old and could be hail damaged... would that be worth saying to every homeowner with an old roof? How often is there hail damage and would insurance cover damage from 5 seasons ago?
Love this video. 2 things I'm afraid of was working minimum wage job or a cubic office job. Working outside, meeting new people, also getting your exercise in is just perfect man.
I’m not a root salesman. I don’t knock doors. [But do cold sales.] and normally listen to the Cardones, the Vaynerchucks, the Mallahs - your video was awesome. I want you to get more pumped up in them; at lease 3 sentences, show us how pumped you were on the week you made the most $$$, smile yell and keep S.T.F.O.!
Thank you you are amazing! I just moved across the country to start this roofing sales position with no experience... I've gotten 6 inspections and 4 contingencies so far. I cant wait to buy your sales material when I can
I got held at gun point in Richardson TX by a drunk guy. Not fun at all. A door knocker got shot knocking doors in Frisco TX. Be careful. Be respectful. Look CLEAN. Dont do anything aggressive. Respect no soliciting signs
I love how real you are my dude, stay 🔥 I love your videos and attitude keep up the great work. I’m currently in my first year of door to door roof sales and love it. I use some of your tips on a daily basis and they do work
You made my day brotha! THIS is why I keep this channel going - to inspire hungry sales guys and gals and help them hit their income goals. Go crush some sales - Adam (and if you have any video topics you want me to hit drop 'em in the comments!)
Hey brother, I have ordered and am implementing your course. I to have studied and listen to Brian Tracey for many years. I just want you to know I hope you get to meet him, he would be extremely proud of who you are. Thanks man.
Matt - 🙏 THANK YOU for the kind words my dude. Glad to se that Brian Tracy was inspirational to you as well. Funny enough, I sent him an email years ago (before I started the Roof Strategist) to share my breakthroughs and got a really nice response from him (or his team). I did get a chance to meet him at the SRC Summit way back when as well :) It was awesome!! Thanks a ton for the comment and kind words :)
Smile, pitch close move to the next , high energy sells , if your going thru it take a break and refresh. Your always going to get aholes dont let them discourage you from the yes thats right down the street
Your video is awesome - thank you for sharing. "Make a game out of it" is so helpful. Man, this video is better than those from some established sales trainers. Great job and thanks
Happy to help my dude. Reach out anytime! Comment on videos with anything on your mind. Feel free to email me video suggestions or questions too: adam (at) roofstrategist (dot) com
Dont count your eggs until they hatch, there are tons of variables in roofing, but I guess if you are a comission salesmen vs the owner you guarantee the comission and in that case you can count your flow before its done.
Jason, this tip is purely to help you stay motivated :) AGREE that you shouldn't "bank" on the commission coming in until it does. And you definitely shouldn't spend it, nor budget for it, but you SHOULD always think about it to stay motivated. You bring a great point!
🙌♥ So pumped to hear that man. But at the end of the day -- you're the one with the heart and the hustle puttin in the work to do it! If you're comfortable sharing more, I'd love to hear it. But first -- I'm super happy for you Cool Guy!
@@TheRoofStrategist just left flooring sales where I was doing fine to pursue opportunity to earn a better life.

With that being said....BRING IT ON!!
Great advice, keep em coming. Love the videos and the marketing pack. I remember reading something you wrote about using insurance agents as referral partners. Is that still something you still utilize?
Thanks Brian. Great memory my man. Yes, in the past I did write about that a few years ago. Sounds like I should make a video about the topic coming up :)
Your videos are fantastic. Question though; do you have a video with sales tips regarding jobs that aren’t eligible for an insurance claim? I don’t have a ton of hail where I live.
Awesome! Thanks, Steve :) Majority of my training is surrounding storm restoration. However, I have sold retail and this is a growing demand from channel subscribers so you'll see some stuff coming soon :) New videos every Tuesday morning!
Love the video man, I do door to door sales and my service is I offer to paint the neighbors curb address for money. Any advice on how I can maximize profits sir? thank you.

Hey man, absolutely love the video, it defenitely will help me more when i go to knock on doors this week. I have done it in the past for my parents who own a roofing company, but for 3 weeks straight I just got shut down over, and over, to the point i gave up. Here i am back at it, except the one thing i struggle with the most, is the anxiety to go up and knock. Is there any advice you could give for that ? I really liked the boat one.
Hey Garbiel, glad to have you here! I sure do have videos to help with anxiety at the door.

The Roof Strategist yes! I have my mom cold calling. As we discussed I can be a little awkward and coming up to a warm lead makes my process work better. I wrote a script but I think being more STRATEGIC in the wording would really help.

Great question, Jason. Insurance rates cannot rise from an "act of God" claim.

Before you do anything to help them make sure they sign a Direction of Payment... that will ensure that check comes back with your name on it. Anything else is roll of the dice 🎲
what is your advice on knocking on doors that have no soliciting signs? I am trained to knock anyways and act like i didn't see it. or say "hey I know you have a sign here but I am only knocking because i saw some shingles missing etc, then go into my pitch.
@@TheRoofStrategist haha. I have a question for you. I’m in door to door sales. A large cable/internet provider. I’m somewhat of a “ southern gentleman”. My boss is asking me to be more assertive with my presentation. He’s suggesting I make a quick opener and then ask the customer to “come inside” so we can discuss. This is very uncomfortable for me but I can see the benefit of being in their home where they’re more comfortable. What’s a good way to ask to come inside without seeming so brash. Thanks in advance.

Loved this. Today was a rough day but kept going because I saw dollar signs
Dollar signs and a big reason WHY you're doing this - to create a better life for you and your family. Dig it!
hey buddy its been 8 months how did it go???

Holy smokes. That's horrifying. Sorry that happened to you dude. The points you bring up are solid. Appreciate you sharing.
This also applies to political canvassing. Great thoughts that I'll take with me to the doors.
Yup! It applies to all door knocking :)
