Doorknockers
« on: November 20, 2006, 05:07:38 pm »
Anyone know about doorknockers? could they build me a round which i then rent off them or do they want paying up front 1st?, ime in stoke on trent area, and not got many houses yet.

Ive been doorknocking before and didnt like it at all, ive got most of my houses off advertising and word of mouth.

Give them a call Kerry? They won`t bite! I believe they charge 3 X what the round is worth a month plus traveling / accommodation so it all adds up. Why not get out knocking yourself? It`s easy after the 1st one i promise.

Regards Rob.

2x is a really good price. You might as well be cleaning your new customers to pay doorknockers than fretting about canvassing if you hate it that much :)

if you use them,  make sure you lay out clearly what you want and what you dont want.

For instance,  do you want frame inset panes (8 by 6 etc) or original (and fragile) leaded light,  when theres enough standard 1930s and new builds around?

Qualify exacty what the rebate scheme is for poor pricing as well.  Ive seen some big houses quoted rediculously low just to get the salesman his commision,  then you are lumbered with it.

i really dont no how any one can give door knockers a bad name you tell them what rds you want canvasing and how much you want the price to be  and they will get you them if you lose any of them within the 2 cleans you get your money back for the jobs you lose its that simple

Been using doorknockers now for a couple of months and it all seems good so far, the small amount of people that have dropped off have been replaced, they seem like genuine people, the only thing i will say is that Paul is useless at picking up his phone ;D ;) only joking, but on the whole they are providing me with the service that i hate doing myself...so all in all its alright!
