[@Wise101]

What could he have said within 3 seconds that would have you interested in Solar? I’m guessing nothing would have worked with your type so he really would have saved time by your type walking away or hanging up.

[@ABeautifulHeartBeat]

​@Wise101 what is his "type" most solar companies are predatory and want to put a lein on your house and will make the sale of the house nigh on impossible.

[@iechevarria5044]

Need to understand that this is a future of energy. No more fosil, with time the buyer of your house will walk away bc has no solar panels ad that means energy cost is higher.

[@ABeautifulHeartBeat]

@iechevarria5044 that's never going to happen. Not a single green energy solution is sustainable and they all need help from fossil fuels to be created. Electric cars use Diesel generators and our grid which is mainly based on fossils fuels. It's all a joke to steal tax dollars and impose restrictions on the general population. Solar is toxic to produce and panels don't last long and aren't efficient. Wind isn't efficient, hydro isn't either.

[@butchl.hidalgo1034]

@@Wise101because solar is a complete BS if you have access to the grid the grid is cheaper. it takes a decade just to get your return of investment in solar panels and the system you need to run and rely of solar power. if you invest the money you will use to buy the “solar BS they are selling” and use the grid vs investing in solar compare the results in 10years and 100% you will become more successful in using the grid and using your money into something else than wasting money on solar

Exactly. Of course most would still say no - like all the tough guys saying so. But you increase your odds and get a few more to say yes. Nothing in sales is magical and works every time! But if you get 3 out of 100 instead of 1-2 out of 100, that's quite an increase, especially over time.

Yes, you don't see "returns" on your investment for a long time. But that's not why you're buying it. You're swapping your power bill with Duke, with a solar bill. Your solar bill, has a fixed rate, has a light at the end of the tunnel, and is better for the environment. Duke, or whatever utility you have, uses your money to pay for solar. Your stuck paying them forever, always have to have power. And guess what? Rates not fixed. On average it goes up 3-5% a year, but this year it jumped up almost 18%.

Great idea 🎉

[@Xodus2k]

To spread awareness that there is actually an option B. Buying power on site instead of the power lines a thousand miles away. Reps are knocking because not all homes are good for solar(roof space, azimuth, shading). Canvassing a neighborhood allows you to see which homes are eligible.

[@prestonsteele7797]

Tell that to the corporate salesman who makes sure you have a job to work at, without commission paid salesman there would be no economy. Without an individual getting a client to sign a contract there is no business. Even if salaried the salesman would have to perform or he would be fired, in order for someone to perform at the highest level you would either need to pay them a high salary or commissions. Then what happens when the high salary is payed to someone who’s no good at sales? The business would tank, and you the waged employee would have no job. I don’t care what business you’re in, the reason you’re able to perform in that business is solely because a salesman is bringing in new business.

It’s the financing that makes a lot of these companies a bunch of scumbags. They’re not there to help you save money on electricity. They are there for your money. Interest rates on solar loans generally range from 4% to 7% but can go up to around 36%.

[@8ight6ix0z]

These sales guys think we give a shit about our neighbors lol.

It’s not about a specific neighbor. Name dropping gives social proof that what you’re doing is legitimate and valued.

[@DarinPirkey]

but I don't know any of my neighbors so you sound dumb when you say it. Like I give a shit what Mr smith thinks.

[@IKidTheSolar]

@@starwarsbunker not when they've seen solar panels in their neighborhood for a decade and had no interest at all! Keep telling yourself that- don't get me wrong, this sounds desperate and silly compared to the right way. It hasn't been interesting or worth being interested in??? Wow.

Pitch me solar in 5 seconds...

[@starwarsbunker]

@@nilehawkins7878hey there, how’s it going? just being super straight forward with you, I am a door to door guy. You can just close the door or give me 20 seconds to explain why I’m here. Which would you like to do? Takes 5 seconds and a lot of the time people will actually choose to listen out of curiosity, and because they were actually given a choice. Then you have 20 seconds. Keep buying more time.

[@noname-tf7kq]

Too scripted for today's environment. Sounds like a movie

[@ross1880]

By the time he responds to me not being interested, the door would be shut in his face.

And then what would happen to you?

I can’t be sold on something I’ve said no to lol at that point you annoy me

But you can do something smart if it is explained right, right? No matter how many times you said "no" when it was explained wrong???

I have my “go pound sand” speech down to a science when these guys show up at my door. No, I don’t want an energy audit. No, I don’t want a car payment for 10% efficient panels for 200 years. No, I don’t care about the environment. Have a nice day!

I’d get you to set an appt pretty easily

[@JonathanTheZombie]

@@nickmurray8897 try it, I’ll venmo you $500.

You are the type that would say no even if you saved 80% off your bill for the next 30 years lol. 😂

[@WestCoastShredders]

You gon be alive for 200 years goofball? Sweet so panels are 20% efficient, and still have 92% production at year 25. It would take 50 years for them to be at 84% production and you’ll be dead. Give me a call

[@JonathanTheZombie]

@@flyguyry1 save on energy bill, pay monthly payments for panels.

[@Recovery12Life]

How about the toxic chemicals they put in the landfill regularly both from production and their short life span, even dupont solar panels loose 30% of their effectiveness over a 15 year period. Even the roof shingles last 20 years nowadays. Almost nothing from a panel is recycled. They are just a bad idea, each panel takes as much petroleum to make as a car burns in a year. Each panel folks so if you have 30 on your roof its like driving a car for 30 years and it still hasnt hit the dump yet Its just not a solution at all. It may save you a buck but its doing nothing for the environment

[@MotorcycleMan79]

This is the most basic sales crap ever. Lol

[@webwildcatting]

Ummmm this example is total bovine scatology. First, you shouldn't be talking to this person. They aren't qualified for interest, need, or ability to afford. This is a pure hypothetical where 'see how easy this is?'. You don't 'sell' anything like this. If you do, the cancellation is coming back shortly, the prospect tells 10 people about your crappy company. Jeremy, SHAME on you for posting crap like this.

[@Shamas-nl4ep]

Rule number 1. You messed up right within your 4 seconds. You think by agreeing with the customer thats this bring you trust and loyalty when in fact you have embedded doubt in the first 4 second. You know jack shi*. Try coming up against me. The best in the buisness

[@happyman6319]

I’m interviewing for software sales BDR/SDR positions right now. Any advice?

[@Shamas-nl4ep]

@Happy Man yes stop putting so much doubt when prospecting, perhaps your interviewees won't do the same and perhaps you will stop living in the grey

[@Shamas-nl4ep]

Have a look at the majority of your comments , your making a lot of real sales people upset with your Grant Cardone nonsense! And that's what is utter nonsense

[@Shamas-nl4ep]

Apologies to you Mr Happy Man. I thought for a second you was the uneducated salesman who has no idea how to open more importantly how to close. Yes my only advice is this. If they are 100% presentable they're already half way there. Providing they are polite professional and well spoken you can groom anyone how to book, canvass or close a deal. Most important question I would be asking is what motivates you ? And the only answer should be Money. Other important question would be , what would you do if after 1 week when you haven't closed a deal and your feeling rock bottom. Answer for this should be , I go back to basics. As sales people we all get complacent and very easy to forget your basics. PITCH , ATTITUDE AND WORK RATE! hope this helps

[@Shamas-nl4ep]

The only way to deal with a "not interested" objection is this. If you was to say to me your not interested I would ask you simply is this down to timing or cost... what the customer is telling you is either he can't afford it or its bad timing. Think about it.... if you was offering your product for free everyone would be interested everyone would want. So keep it simple and try and identify if it's down to cost or timing. If its cost we can make it affordable if its bad timing then you walk away. Biggest mistake sales people try and do is sell to everyone. Your job is to the filter out the shi* and find genuine interest genuine buyers.
