Agents Who Doorknock

[HoosierLife]

It's like American pickers. Free surfing and searching for a potential house to DK.
(Just give me an average house in a blue collar neighborhood that is well kept up.)


I just can't seem to find the motivation to DK all day.


I like aged mailed leads, fresh telemarketing leads, and setting apts over cold DK. I do go on aged leads cold and some new fresh leads when I can't get them on the phone.

Where do you get aged DM leads?

That would be my own old stash.

Where do you get aged DM leads?

We use several sources. Lead concepts, Msps, less connection

You may order new DM leads from these sources but you cannot buy aged leads from them.

It is very effective. It is time consuming and can be frustrating but I believe in it whole heartily.

I have had great success so it's easy for me to believe in it. Last week of August I wrote $9300 I'm FE and 2 med supps. All door knocking. My wrist month this year was a miserable $2500.

I also would say that 10% of my sales would have not allowed me to set an appointment. Only about 1% if the people are totally turned off by you knocking on their door. Some will ask you to come another time.

That said, I am horrible in the phone so it just works for me. When I used to set appointments over the phone I got a lot of no shows.

I missed the AGED part of this sentence. Sorry for the confusion. I buy new leads.

The good thing about door knocking is you will find out as soon as you make contact if got a live one. You gotta go out there anyways if your gonna write them up,being persistent is a good thing.
Anything else is being lazy.

Wow. I'm blown away by that. As a newby it's been extremely frustrating for me. How many times do you have to hit a door? Most of my leads, even from age 50 to 80 never seem to be home. I can run a set of 15 leads in 4.5 hours. The breakdown is roughly 10 no-answers, 3 'wife musta sent this in & she's not here' or 'you need to talk to my husband & he's not here', and 2 who say, 'life insurance? Oh, we have that. I thought this was something else!' (The lead card is vague & references a 'state approved' plan to cover your entire funeral cost.) Glad it's working for someone.
