Title: How to find a canvasser?
Post by: colley614 on June 05, 2012, 10:34:47 pm
Hi Guys,

I'm wondering how is the best way to get a canvasser on board. I started back up with one ready to go but he has not been out once, keeps sending me text messages with excuses why he hasn't shown up then saying he'll call me that evening. Then I get the phone call "Sorry. Dog ate my homework...blah, blah, blah." So I posted an ad on Gumtree about a week ago and haven't had any interest from that. Just wondering where you guys have found your canvassers. Maybe it's just the wording in my add.

Not really got a couple of shops to do, house to clean, house to price then I'm going canvassing all day.

I like that idea. Did you let him canvass work while you clean until you had more than enough for one man?
