I guess I was pretty good at it. Had an average of some 40-90 magazines a month, and brought five people to be publishers.
Looking back as the householder -- How well did you do?

oh i used to pity the poor people, who wouldn't? 10am on a Saturday morning being talked to about JoJoba and them thinking your selling them shampoo blessed by God or something in their post Friday night bender repecussions. I used to cringe at the virtual Foot in the Door techniques, and waht amazed me was the fact when they got the door slammed in their face, it was business as usual! I hated the "knock" as we called it, always felt like an invasion of privacy. Plus some of the characters you would meet at the door step.... "shudders" almost all the looneys would be at the meeting a month after their first call, always!! Our hall had them in spades!

What I hate about Saturdays now is, if someone rings the doorbell on a Saturday morning, I am in bed thinking "what the hell?" And this is at 10-11 o'clock in the morning. Nevermind that I don't normally booze it up on a Friday night either. It's just that I use Saturday mornings to get my "makeup" sleep for the time my body missed throughout the week.
All uninvited housecalls should be made in the afternoon.
