Title: Canvassing in Jan/Feb/Mar
Post by: keen n clean on December 31, 2010, 04:28:24 pm
Hi everyone,
Having started my wfp business in dec last year,i was wondering what peoples thoughts where on canvassing in winter months,my experience/feedback and customers i got was quite good....jan 2010=42,feb=26,
mar=37..so being bored to tears at home over christmas and between new year this time round and having resceduled all my customers for start of new year,i have been out the last couple of days canvassing from 11a.m to 3.00p.m door knocking,results........ yesterday=2(hard slog,,ahhh !!!) today=6(happy!!!) total 8 new customers for 8 hours canvassing!!!!!!!!! im well happy with that and i think these winter months are a perfect time to stomp the streets.......Has anybody else been at it? ;) ;) ;)

Winter is an excellent time to canvass -  all the pt time summer guys have stopped working and people
want their windows done,

these custy's will stay all year round - not cancel every year.

those i picked up after april (through canvassing - not rec's or phoned me) 1 in 5 stopped in November
wither pickups - not lost a single one

Def canvass this Sunday and Monday - then the w/ends into April - you'll have more work than you could possibly cope with

Exactly,i once had someone thrust one of my leaflets back in my hand seconds after posting it.Just explained i was just trying to earn a living like the next person,he said "well i dont want any leaflets,im f***ing sick of bloody leaflets!!"
"How about having your windows cleaned sir?" i replied.
He slammed the door lol
