In this brief conversational clip, two speakers discuss the problem of "lookie-loos" in door‑to‑door (D2D) sales—prospects who talk at length but have no intention to purchase. Speaker A defines lookie‑loos and warns that new reps often mistake chatter for buying intent. Speaker B shares an anecdote about a neighbor who hired him to dig a compost pit, illustrating how time can be wasted on non‑buyers. He then describes a quick screening tactic: offering to sign the prospect up for a service (e.g., pest control) to gauge interest; the prospect’s dismissive response signals they’re not a qualified buyer. The clip concludes with a reminder that a salesperson’s time is money and should be spent only on prospects with genuine buying intent.
