Hi all, i run a window cleaning round building company called 'doorknockers' our sales people are totally non pressure, have a pitch that is straight to the point, 'Hi, do you have a window cleaner at the present? if the answer is yes, we move on, if the answer is no we just say would you like one?
We are providing a service, and many thousands of people would not have a window cleaner right now as many of them say 'we can never find one' and in many cases have waited years for us to show up.
We are not asking for money or signatures, just if they would want a chap or chapess to come and clean their windows.
I would,nt have a problem in registering my company with the police, issuing all my staff with police backed i.d. cards to overcome the dodgy callers, as surely this is the best way of removing the unscrupulous callers, no i.d. badge? customer closes door!
If everyone knew to look for these i.d. cards surely it would go a long way to curing the problem.
By the way i cant stand double glazing salesmen either, they are too high pressure, and once they are in your house, they try and become your family!! 3 hour salespitch!
