A short excerpt from a YouTube video ("Try to think of it like this next time...", uploaded June 10, 2025) providing advice for door-to-door salespeople. The speaker reframes being rejected (doors slammed) as feedback about the salesperson's own behavior or tone, and recommends dissecting interactions to learn skills that prevent future rejections.
Most door to door salespeople, like, you know, they get door slammed in their face, like, oh, this neighborhood sucks. Like, these people are broke. They're mean. My mind, I'm like, oh, what did I say? Maybe. How did my tone come across that triggered them to slam that door in my face? And so when you start looking at it from a different viewpoint and you start to dissect it like it's something you're doing that's triggering that, then you start learning the right skills to prevent that from happening.
