Door-to-door sales rewards a few simple habits. Here are seven that separate closers from quitters.

1. Knock first

Strategy means nothing if you don't knock. Volume is the foundation — more doors, more conversations, more sales.

2. Win the first eight seconds

The doorway is the whole deal. Voice up, shoulders square, smile. People decide fast.

3. Ask, don't pitch

Questions keep people talking. Pitches make them close the door. Lead with curiosity.

4. Treat "no" as data

Every no tightens the funnel. A hundred nos is a closer being built — don't take it personally.

5. Protect the streak

Show up daily, even on the bad days. Consistency beats intensity over a season.

6. Look and carry like a pro

Look legit, bring your tablet, know your product cold. Credibility opens doors.

7. Track your numbers

Doors knocked, conversations, closes. What you measure, you improve.
