Part of the mystique of this firm is it’s secret language. If you know the secret hand shake I’ll share more details… until then, brothers first.

It’s a 12 pound laptop with a stylus so you can take notes directly on to the screen. it will also convert your writing into (usually the incorrect) text. It is a good laptop for Pharma Reps and similar types of sales…it just doesn’t work for door-to-door sales. Not to mention the retirees who look at it like were out to steal their identity…
I think it’s a Toshiba Portage…
So, things are starting to slow down. I haven’t added anything solid to my pipeline in the last two weeks.
I need to make something good happen. Oh, yeah, and I'm pretty sure there was an adult film being shot at a house I doorknocked today. They were filming something and were acting very secretive about it, and I saw a couple of college girls leaving a little while later.[quote=MsBroker]So, things are starting to slow down.

"That's alright, I'll take the 'F' "Are you still working 12 hour days at doorknocking? You may have just offered to be in the film, seems like a lot less work and I’m willing to bet its better pay.

Can you get some pictures next time?
... Keep prospecting, keep calling, keep hitting it hard. ;)
I need help. I am having problems getting appointments set.
I have a ton of prospects I have doorknocked, called, then doorknocked again, then called and left messages. Please give me some magic phrase to use to get an appointment.Give me the address to the porn movie house and I’ll give you the secret to getting appointments.
Im hearing through PM that EJ is actually looking to hire strippers and porn stars because they have experience with marketing and running their own business.
My day ended very nicely!
1st knock, a retired couple sets an appointment to move their MSSB (comprised of American Funds) account to me. Meeting on Monday. I still don't have the balls to ask for the dollar amount (actually I just don't think about it) so I don't know what the amount is, but I am hoping it's decent sized. I reminded them of their daughter and they admired my tenacity! Their daughter is with Wachovia and hates them, so I may get that also! (She also just left her very well paying job after 10 years and moved to another company so big time R/O opportunity!) This was a huge confidence boost that I really was starting to need. It proves that by god, you knock on enough doors and you will find someone willing to do business!Alright, got Acat for $175K and the daughter wants to meet with me!
Also, set an appt for Wednesday to do a nice little rollover. (40-50k) If I could do this everyday....When you Jones guys ACAT accounts, what are you usually bringing in? Stocks, individual bonds, or funds? I guess the reason I ask is that we rarely ACAT anything, it gets liquidated to cash at the current broker and then transferred into managed money or a VA. If it’s small we’ll just have it liquidated and then transferred into funds setup direct with the MF company.
I am ACATing a lot of funds, then liquidating once we get them in. I don’t know why I do it that way. I have found it easier to say, hey let’s just move these accounts over to me, then we can put together a game plan on how to invest…
I am brand new, though, so any asset gathering is a great thing for me.
