What can I do to make these mongoloids realize that this can vastly improve their personal and worldwide futures?
maybe ask them a smart question instead of telling them that you "are looking for..."
Nathan King
You open telling them what you are looking for, what your need is. You’re patronizing them.
You need to open telling them or asking them about their needs, not yours.
People only care what is in it for them, so that’s the only thing you should be talking about. >Hi, Your business must use a lot of electricity for (this big space, all of your machinery, your servers, your computers) I can help you with that with solar product to lower your costs. Do you want to save money?
Show them you understand their problems and have a solution.
Oliver Brown
You need to market it to the people that want it. Clearly asking people at random isn't working. If you're being forced to try to sell at random then you are literally just human spam for them.

Yo op I do cold calling in a different industry, first of all say good morning/ afternoon or say some dumb fucking normie as joke like hey it’s wensday finally halfway through the week, if they are immediately telling u not interested after a rapport builder you need to interrupt them and tell them you totally understand that they are not in the market to change right now but you’d still love to meet with them and intro yourself, also buy chainlink
Andrew Bell
What is chainlink
Charles Evans
kill yourself faggot if I could shoot you cold-calling retard fucks through the phone, I would I would answer the phone all day long and murder idiots like you, and feel nothing but joy how fucking dare you intrude upon the privacy of someone elses life to try and sell them your dumbfuck garbage? disrespectful little faggot nobody
Jordan Perez
It has nothing to do with the phone. It's door to door

1) Better customer research. If you're just meeting random people, most of them are not going to be interested, even if it's a good deal. You need to find people who NEED solar, or want solar, for whatever reason.
2) Solar panels that I looked at, take like 15 years to recoup your investment. That's a bad deal. You're probably going to have to sell to people who are interested in being "green", or who have peculiar electricity needs. Find your customers.
3) Be charming. People prefer to buy from someone who likes them, and who they like. It's an art form. How you dress, how your talk, how you relate to them, et cetera. People should open the door with a normal emotional state, and after they close the door, they should be smiling.
ok user, i'll take pity on you. get a hardhat and a small portable solar panel. when they come to the door, tell them you work for amazon and amazon would like to buy the rights to put solar panels on their roof for 1k. then take pity on them and tell them its a terrible deal because their house gets incredible sun and they'll practically have free electricity forever if they get their own. give them your "friend's" card to get more info.
I don't really know. But everybody on Jow Forums seems to be talking about it.

Hi do you like Polar Bears (or something mainstream known being affected by climate change...ie.. rising waters)? Yes Can I have two minutes of your time to inform you of a way to save polar bears and xxx dollars over the course of xxx time? Yes/No Go from there accordingly.
You appeal to their guilty environmental concerns, and also hit their probably more important financial concerns in a quick door open.
There's a lot of people interested in solar but know zero about it. The ones who say no regardless are often those who'd say no to a million dollar idea because they've always said no to anyone soliciting. It's a numbers game and eventually with enough belief and confidence in what you're selling, will knock on the doors of people willing to consider a change.
I worked in car audio at best buy way back when. I'm shy and not very good at speaking one on one with people (aka bull shitting) but I would anyways be pushing carts of merchandise to the front that i got people to buy. The other employees would ask me how I did it and I told them I just told the person what they needed.
I only asked two things: What are you trying to achieve? What's your budget? And I gave them the best solution for the criteria. Most importantly, I was truthful. I spoke as a source of knowledge and told them what they needed with confidence.
Do some legwork on the electricity cost of different size buildings so you have some numbers, mention the trend of using LED lighting as a cost saver and that you can go a step further with solar. Compare the conventional cost to what you're offering. Make sure you are speaking to someone who can make these decisions at the business (or at least pitch the idea to someone who makes the decisions).
Josiah Gray
It's easier for someone to say no than to say yes. So ask them questions they should reply no to. "I just have a few quick questions." "Did you know you're likely overpaying for solar power?" "Would you want to pay an upfront fee for solar panels?" "Did you know *solar name* can store power on cloudy days?" "It's also cheaper than ComED, with no upfront fee. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain."
"Or you can just buy Chainlink and open your own solar panel company in 2 years"

Personally, my condo was incorrectly raided by a drug enforcement unit since the previous tenant was apparently a cocaine dealer. I'm talking my door was kicked down. Since then my heart starts pounding fast whenever I hear a knock at the door.
