Teach them early.

I know, I know, I know.....I haven't been on here for a while. (This is Jason, by-the-way) I've been super busy, but something funny happened today, and I just needed to put it out there for everybody. (those that have done sales can appreciate this more)

This summer I stayed in Boise, and have been running the Office out of my house. We have a goal board, white board, motivational posters....The Works. Of course we do trainings, etc every morning. This is where I teach people about how to knock doors i.e.: How/where to stand, non-verbals, what to say, tonality, etc. etc. Since we are at the house, I have all of my guys go outside and actually knock on the door, as opposed to imitating it inside. (seems more real, makes it more legit.) Apparently, Walker has taken notice. He has been going out he front door, locking it as he goes out, so we have to come open it when we ring the doorbell. This morning as Correlation was getting over, walker was doing his best "initial approach" when we opened the door to let him in. He wasn't saying anything word for word, but he was mumbling and imitating a bunch of the stuff that I have been teaching my guys.

Sarah thought it was pretty funny.

What was left out of THIS approach that Jason saw Walker do, was that he'll stand in different positions on the porch and ask, "How are you doing?" and then the mumble, mumble. We certainly have another salesman in the family. He's always trying to negotiate strict stuff like bedtime, dinner and baths! Sorry Walker-not gonna happen.

That is too funny. However, I hope his first words are not "super cheap" but rather, "baseball" or "hunting" or "fishing".
