Worst Appt Week EVER!

[TDFnCali]

I generally set between 3-6 appts a week, and door knock the rest. My appts show up close to 75% of the time typically. I've just knocked on my 5th appt door 10min ago & she's my 5th No-Show!

I have 2 more appts set today, anyone wanna guess if I'll go 1 for 6 or 0 for 7?

Anyone ever have a worst week, appt wise? I can't imagine anyone has gone worst then 0-5?

Gotta love this job.... Never seen anything like this & I thought by now I would've seen pretty much everything!

Keep up the good work it has to get better. Just think that you are not punching a time clock like I am.

TGIF is almost here.

It's weeks like this followed by 3 more weeks like this that puts FE agent out of the game. I hope next week is better for you. Don't let this week come through your voice when setting next weeks appts.

You'll be good. Just power though it.

And yeah, I have had worse weeks. Make those appointments 3 hours away on different days. Then on Friday you get noticed that you got a large charge back so no commission check, and the one case you wrote on Monday just canceled. Everything in pending is still waiting for Kaiser APS'. All this a couple months after your wife quit her job and all the benefits. And you have two in diapers.

It's weeks like this that put anyone out of business. But think that now you have 6 appointments more to set for next week. Also I call people on their phone if they're not home granted I have a cell phone. I say that something like what happened?? I'm here likr we agreed. Usually they'll feel bad and you can reschedule right then. If they don't answer I leave my business card saying the same what happened I passed by like agreed call me to reschedule. Just call again if they don't call you.

I've noticed people that are no shows and reschedule tend to buy. If they're not interested they won't bother with rescheduling.

I've had people no show 2-3 times and I the fourth appointment when we finally meet make a sale.

Good luck hope that helps :-)

No shows are normally a sign of ppl not interested in ur svs. May want to find a warmer market. I remember those days.

Not necessarily.. It is just that they are not AS interested in what you have to offer as they were in whatever distracted them on that particular day. We live in a me, me society these days and people do not give any thought to the fact they are robbing you of your time. The only thing they are interested in is what they want. As lmt125 says, many no shows are interested enough to buy as long as you catch them when they don't have something better to do..

The encouraging part is that he didn't eat his .44 magnum. Either that or he had so much wine that he missed!
