Andrew Marino left door-to-door sales for five years. He worked for the Utah Jazz, sold SaaS in New York City, even appeared on a Hulu reality show. Then he came back to the industry in April 2025 and won a Golden Door Award by December selling over 900 accounts in the fiber space.In this episode, Hunter breaks down Andrew's approach to averaging double-digit sales days, his process for qualifying customers quickly, and why he records every failed pitch for feedback.

What does it really take to build a scalable business that survives without you?In this episode of The Determined Society Podcast, David Royce shares how he went from knocking doors as a college student to building and exiting multiple pest control companies, including a $500M empire operating across 34 states and 5,000+ cities.David breaks down the real mechanics of scale, why blue-collar businesses with white-collar systems are massively underrated, and how obsession, systems, and cash flow discipline separate businesses that grow from those that collapse. Key Takeaways-A business is truly scalable if you can step away for 30 days and it still runs without you.-Growth is meaningless without strong cash flow and financial control.-Some of the most profitable opportunities exist in overlooked, blue-collar industries.-Systems and processes create freedom and allow a business to operate without constant involvement.-Great sales come from listening, understanding people, and solving real problems.-Obsession and persistence matter more than talent, because most people fail by quitting too early. Connect with me :https://link.me/theshawnfrench?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaY2s9TipS1cPaEZZ9h692pnV-rlsO-lzvK6LSFGtkKZ53WvtCAYTKY7lmQ_aem_OY08g381oa759QqTr7iPGADavid Roycehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/david-royce-22539425/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of FreightWaves' The Daily, we map out the critical operational shifts defining the 2026 supply chain landscape, focusing on risk management over pure technology. We examine how generative AI and OEM partnerships are accelerating Waabi's push for point-to-point autonomous trucking to solve the commercial inefficiencies of the "highway trap." Regulatory risks are rising as a massive budget deficit in California threatens to disrupt federal, leading to significant compliance volatility for carriers. An internal audit highlights systemic weaknesses in the state's safety programs that could make roadside inspections and protocols increasingly unpredictable. On the macro front, a robust 4.3% GDP growth rate in Q3 signals a healthier economic foundation driven by strong consumer spending and exports rather than just import fluctuations. This economic shift is prompting industry leaders to stop designing for certainty and start building supply chains for adaptability to better handle market disruptions. We also discuss how this renewed focus on efficiency is setting the stage for a resurgence in large carrier M&A, including the anticipated spin-off of FedEx Freight. Finally, we analyze the urgent need to harden networks against sophisticated criminal rings that are exploiting commercial freight channels to smuggle narcotics and stolen vehicles across borders.

My Guest: Angie Hicks, co-founder of Angie's List (now called Angi). She started the company at just 23, going door-to-door as a self-described introvert and non-salesperson, and turned it into a national platform trusted by millions. During our conversation, we discuss what it takes to lead with authenticity and build lasting impact.  Key Learnings Lead by listening and showing up. Whether it's knocking on doors as a 23-year-old or meeting employees during office hours as CEO, Angie reminds us that being present, paying attention, and seeking feedback is the heart of leadership. Focus on people and learning. Angie's career filter is simple: Do I like the people I'm working with? Am I learning new things? If yes, keep going. If not, it's time to reconsider. Excellence isn't just about results. It's about the environment and growth around you. Take your work seriously, but not yourself. Confidence, humility, and authenticity go hand in hand. Angie shows us that you can be ambitious and driven without losing sight of the human side of leadership. From Angie... My co-founder, Bill Osterle, came to me when I was a senior in college and said, "Hey, I've got a crazy idea. Your parents are gonna hate it. But why don't we start a business?" I talked to my parents, talked to my friends, and then I ended up talking to my grandfather who was incredibly conservative. He grew up in the Depression, very fiscally responsible. "What do you have to lose? You're 22, your parents aren't going to let you starve, and you're not trying to support a family, so why don't you try it?" I was so taken aback by his response that that comment was probably what pushed me over the edge. I think young people can do this a lot, as we tend to overthink decisions. Sometimes people see things in you that you don't see in yourself, and you've gotta have a little faith. What better time to have a little faith than when you're young and carefree? Work hard, and things will come your way. We started in 1995. It was an offline world. We started as a call-in service and a monthly newsletter. The first name of the company was Columbus Neighbors. We left it like that for a year, and people just didn't get it. They thought the newsletter was the list. We decided to do a rebranding nine months in. We had two options: The List or Jackie's List (Jackie was the mother of one of our investors who knew everybody). At the last minute, Bill said maybe it should be Angie's List. "She does answer the phone." Going door to door was hard. There was a lot of crying, I will be honest. I was selling something that wasn't concrete. "Hey, so when you need a plumber, you're gonna call me and I'm gonna help you find a plumber. And then when you hire someone, you're gonna tell me about it." I viewed it as a numbers game. I need to knock on so many doors every day, and that's just what I'm going to do. Hopefully, if I stay on my pitch and I knock on enough doors, I will sell the right number of memberships. If I was selling one or two memberships a day, that's great. No business was gonna be built on me selling one or two memberships a day, but that's where we were. Sometimes you have to do the hard stuff. Sometimes you have to do the stuff you're not good at, and you have to figure out ways to work around it. Because no matter what you do in your career, there's gonna be stuff you don't love. I broke it down by like, I'm gonna do it for these two hours. I'm a believer in the you can do anything for a year philosophy. I could do anything for an hour a day. So you have to kind of disconnect and treat it that way, as this is like taking my medicine. But you do win every once in a while. And it is fun when you win. It is fun when you sell something. The day Patty gave me her church directory was the best day ever. You gotta celebrate the little wins as well in life. Starting a business is a long journey. It is more of a marathon than a sprint. There's usually not this burst of momentum where everything rolls your way. It's building blocks along the way. If you don't celebrate those little wins and you only focus on, oh, I'm not gonna be happy until we're at 10,000 members, that could be years. You need things to keep you going every day. Patty lived near Bill, so she kinda liked him too, but I think there was a little bit of entrepreneur in Patty. Patty needed nothing from us. She had lived in Columbus her entire life. She had renovated a 1920s house. All she was able to do was give. She knew everybody. But I think she just loved the spirit. You don't know whether that's door seven, door one, door 57, you don't know. But there is typically a breakthrough. Staying true and persistent, you know, there probably weren't a lot of women starting businesses going door to door in 1995, and Patty was like, look, she's got some gumption. She's tackling a business that in many ways is a man's world. Construction is a man's world. Whether that's starting a business or finding the right boss, or finding the right position, that same lesson is the same. I talk to young people, I say, Hey, you can do marketing anywhere. There's any company you can do marketing. When it comes to me... Go where you're gonna be with somebody who believes in you. That's gonna invest in you, because that's actually what's gonna change your trajectory. It's not the name on the company that's gonna change your trajectory. It's actually who's got your back, who's coaching you, that's going to make the biggest difference. The next inflection point for me was when we opened in Cleveland the year after that. It was the first market we had opened from scratch. I remember I went one morning and picked up the newspaper, picked up the Plain Dealer at the bagel shop across the street from my office. And there it was, our little two-by-three ad that said, "Tired of lousy service" with some clip art. I was so excited. I was like, This is amazing. We're in Cleveland. This is gonna be so great. And then I remember telling Bill, "We're gonna get so many calls." And he's like, "We're gonna get so many calls." And I don't think we got any calls that day. The transition from individual contributor to leading others was a horrible transition. It's actually really hard. I tell people that all the time because if you think about who do we promote in companies, we promote really strong individual performers. The skills that make us really good individual performers do not necessarily make us good leaders, managers, et cetera, because it's actually a whole different skillset. I was that overachiever kind of controller, let me just do it type person. You have to actually train yourself to not do those things because no one's ever going to be successful and learn if you're just over there stepping in. The early days when I was young and trying to manage people, not good. Not good at all. I ended up leaving for a year and a half to go to business school. I was pretty burnt out on the business, and I probably would've left the business had I not gone. It gave me a chance to reflect on where I've been and step back. Now I understand, I'm not in the pressure cooker. I can see where I've mistepped. I left when I was 25, three years in. The business had gotten big enoug,h and we decided to bring in a CEO because the 22- 23-year-old was kinda like, maybe we need some leadership here. My co-founder joined full-time at that point and came in as CEO. I joke around, I'm like, take a break. I was still keeping the books. The TV commercial was a hundred thousand dollars, which I had to convince our board on. I was like, look, either we try this or we just close Cleveland because there is no scenario here that we're gonna build a business with door-to-door sales at the rate we're moving. We basically took everything on Cleveland, which was $100,000. I would've been devastated had it failed. People started calling. I was so excited. Then all of a sudden it just kinda went bananas. You realize there's a lot of people with this problem. Doors slammed in my face at that point, not as much of an issue. And then we ended up being in Boston and Washington, and a bunch of other cities. Every time we'd go to a city, I'd fly in, and I would open the paper, and I would get all happy. The TV commercials themselves were funny because I can't do anything for fun anymore without seeing myself in the commercial. I did the first one, and they're like, listen, we're just gonna, we're not gonna tell anybody. It's just gonna go on, you know, we're just gonna do it really quietly. I was like, great. Okay, fine. And then it kind of took off. I had young kids at the time. I wouldn't let us advertise on kids' shows. There was never us on Disney Channel or Nickelodeon because I didn't want that. But the kids would see me on TV. You know, they would see me doing interviews. It happened for them at such a young age that they just kind of thought that's what parents did. I remember one of my kids coming home in middle school and being like, I can't believe you didn't tell me you were famous because it was finally, the friends had grown up enough that they were like, you know who her mom is, right? I became a little more closed off in my personal life as I became more public. Kids deserve to grow up in a world where they get to be kids and not have to deal with that stuff. In our little town, people were like, Oh yeah, she just lives here. And it became not a thing. It became more relevant to me when I was traveling. I started doing office hours. I did it on Fridays leading into the lunchtime, which, let's be honest, was probably one of the squishiest times of productive work. I was with a group of CEOs the other day, and I actually suggested, just try a little. It doesn't have to be a big thing. Just try a little and see where it takes you. The meetings were anything. It was career advice. What should I do? They might have ideas for the business. Hey, we should go into this line. I remember talking one day to our head of legal, and I was like, you know, I don't get open-door media requests anymore. And she kind of chuckled, and she said, That's because you have them all the time. You allow problems to come to you before they're big problems, so they become less of a thing. I'd rather people bring their concerns internally first and listen to 'em and address 'em when you can. They always come internally first, whether it's from an employee, whether it's from a customer. It's just how we handle those things as to whether they blow up into something bigger. I always tried to give them something in return. They come to talk to me and I'd introduce 'em to someone who would help. I'd open a door for them. To this day, I still love talking to customers. I think we live in a very digital age, and I feel like we don't talk to one another very much. People like people. They need to feel heard and have things resolved. I took that office hours idea, and now I do it with customers, so any pro can sign up and talk to me. Gives me a chance to understand, get a pulse on what's going on. The people on the front line are the ones who are making your brand. The marketing team might make some great social posts and some great TV ads. But many times, the people who are manning the phones or your chats are the ones that are leaving a more lasting impression on your brand than anything else. How do you bring the voice of the customer into the organization? Not everybody in our company is a homeowner. How do you make sure they can understand the customer? What's life like as a small business owner, as a pro? What's it like for a homeowner when something goes awry on their worst day? How do I bring those stories to life? I had to convince myself that it was a good use of time. Busy people who have lots of responsibility are active doers, overachievers, to sit back and talk and listen feels like, Okay, am I moving the needle? It feels a bit too squishy. That's why I would treat it just like some of the other things. I will give it an hour a week. Let's see what happens there. I could see the payoff. I can't go spend 30% of my time doing this, but there is a portion of time that I do dedicate. Feedback is a gift and something you should seek out. But yeah, it doesn't always feel great. One of the hardest pieces of advice I got came at a time when we were actually trying to do a transaction. They said, "You have an executive presence issue." And I was like, what? They said, "You're too nice to everybody. It doesn't help the company." I can't tell you how much that comment just killed me. But then I went out and got an executive coach, and I reflected on it. In many ways, it made me a better CEO. I learned that I could be me and I could still be nice and I could be kind, but there are moments I have to be clear. When I'm looking to promote someone or hire someone, knowing your stuff is super important. You don't want this person, who says, I'm the one who always knows the answer. You want someone who can learn from their team. I spent most of my career running marketing, and marketing moves fast. Some of the youngest members of the team are teaching me more things over the years than even some of the more seasoned marketing people. How are you constantly having a view about learning and staying smart in the trade? The ability to just be a good partner or work with people is important. Your job's not to come in and knock down walls. It's actually to build relationships because you can't do everything yourself. How are you at building cross-department relationships? My advice to recent grads: One of my favorites, take your work very seriously. Be good at what you do. Don't always be looking for that next thing that you gotta go tackle. Do what's in front of you first. Don't take yourself too seriously. You come out, you're like, Oh, I have all of these credentials. I should therefore be able to do these things. Sometimes the envelopes need stuffed and we might all do that together. So don't take yourself too seriously. We're gonna do this together. Be open to feedback and to helping others. Don't be afraid when people suggest things that seem totally counter. I think sometimes we get too rigid in our plans. I use Angie's List as an example. I was supposed to be a consultant. I was supposed to go be a business consultant, but then Bill comes in and says, hey, what about this? I could have easily been a business consultant and had a nice life. But I chose that door. A lot of times, people get a little too narrow in their focus and miss opportunities. So stay open to that. For me, it's all about the people you work with. Working with people that you're learning from, that believe in you, that's all that matters. I overindex there. People ask me, how are you still doing this after 30 years? I ask myself two questions, and if I can answer yes to those two questions, I'm in. If I answer no, I'm out. The two things are: Do I like the people I'm working with, and am I learning new things? When you're as long in your career as I am, you have to dedicate time and effort to learning new things so that you don't become that person that is like, we do this because we've always done it this way. Which I think is just like the worst line ever. Reflection Questions Angie's grandfather asked, "What do you have to lose?" when she was 22 and hesitating about starting a business. What decision are you currently overthinking that you might need to just take a leap on while you're young (or young enough) and the risk is manageable? S She says the skills that make us really good individual performers don't necessarily make us good leaders. If you've recently been promoted or are leading others, what specific "doer" habits do you need to let go of so your team can learn and succeed? Angie stayed at Angi for 30 years by asking herself two questions: "Do I like the people I'm working with?" and "Am I learning new things?" How would you honestly answer those two questions about your current role? If the answer to either is no, what does that tell you?

In this episode of The D2D Podcast, Hunter Lee welcomes Patrick Brien (CEO) and Dan Ringen (VP of Business Development) from SPCloser, an AI-powered coaching platform for door-to-door and in-home sales teams. With experience at companies like Fleetmatics, Boeing, NASA, and the Cleveland Guardians, Pat and Dan bring a data-driven approach to improving sales performance and team development.The conversation explores how artificial intelligence is reshaping coaching for door-to-door and in-home sales. Instead of waiting for a manager to shadow or review calls days later, reps can now get instant, objective feedback on their tone, listening skills, and objection handling. For sales managers, AI provides a clear view of each rep's strengths and recurring challenges without hours of manual observation. Business owners gain reliable data to measure progress, spot performance trends, and refine training systems that directly impact close rates and customer experience.The episode emphasizes one core truth: AI isn't replacing salespeople, it's making them more effective. By focusing on awareness, consistency, and communication quality, teams can develop habits that last long after the technology does its job.You'll find answers to key questions such as:How does AI feedback help sales reps close more deals?What common habits stop reps from improving their performance?How can managers coach effectively with limited time?How does AI improve sales performance in door-to-door and in-home selling?How can sales organizations use technology to train smarter at scale? Connect with the guests:Website: https://spcloser.com Instagram: @spcloser_ai 

In this episode of The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex, we sit down with Justin Colby (@thejustincolby) — a seasoned entrepreneur who reveals the unfiltered truth behind building wealth, surviving market disasters, and reinventing yourself when everything falls apart.

Most people think the path is simple: get the degree, climb the ladder, save what's left. Lame Kinikini did the opposite. He dropped out one year before med school, went all-in on door-to-door sales, then used those skills to build a 9-figure short-term rental portfolio and help high earners legally slash their tax bills. In this episode, Lame breaks down the real journey behind the highlight reel. From growing up in a Polynesian immigrant family and marrying young, to making $200K in sales and realizing he still didn't own his time, to burning the boats after his father-in-law passed away unexpectedly. He talks about how he used Airbnb arbitrage to replace his income fast, scaled into management and operations, then shifted into owning the assets and becoming “the short-term rental tax guy” for high-income professionals. We also dive into the short-term rental tax loophole, why most people misunderstand it, and how smart investors are using it to offset active income while still buying properties that actually cash flow. Lame shares how he structures deals, why bigger and better amenities win in today's Airbnb landscape, and what changes when you see money as a tool to increase your capacity to serve—not a scoreboard. If you're stuck in that “comfortable” $200K income trap, curious about short-term rentals, or wondering how to turn your existing skills into a real portfolio and real freedom, this conversation will give you both the tactics and the perspective shift. Use Code WEALTHJUICE for 20% off your EZ Landlord Forms Orderhttps://www.ezlandlordforms.com/  RESOURCES

In this special crossover episode of The Consumer Finance Podcast and Payments Pros, host Jason Cover is joined by colleagues Taylor Gess and Andrew Thurmond to unpack the legal and operational complexities of home solicitation and home improvement finance. The conversation analyzes the Federal Trade Commission's Cooling-Off Rule and state analogs, highlighting practical pitfalls around oral and written cancellation notices, dealer obligations, and extended rescission periods or differing notice requirements in certain jurisdictions. The team explores how funding timing, change orders, electronic contracting, and foreign-language sales can impact risk.  They also dive into contractor and home improvement laws, e.g., down payment and progress payment restrictions, licensing, and conspicuous disclosure obligations plus state home improvement financing acts that may impose registration requirements, finance charge or fee limits, and specialized disclosures. The episode offers practical insights on issues to consider when doing business as in-home sales or under home improvement/contractor laws.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It's a story shaped by suffering, but defined by rebuilding, remembrance, and an enduring commitment to legacy. Door to Door invites listeners to witness what it means to reclaim identity from the wreckage—and to carry forward the names, the stories, and the truths nearly erased.If you've ever felt the weight of inherited memory, or the pull to understand where you come from — subscribe to Door to Door wherever you get your podcasts. Let this be part of your story, too.

In this episode of The D2D Podcast, host Hunter sits down with Colton BrockBank,  former Nitro Circus athlete, X Games producer, sales coach, and author of The Confidence Cheat Code. Colton's life has been anything but ordinary. From flipping on wakeboards and dirt bikes to flipping mindsets in business, his story is packed with lessons for anyone striving to level up in door-to-door sales and in life.After years of working in sales, marketing, and performance coaching, Colton discovered that confidence isn't a gift, it's a skill built through action. His unique background in behavioral science and human performance gives sales reps powerful insights into overcoming fear, self-sabotage, and limiting beliefs that hold them back on the doors.In this conversation, Colton breaks down why authenticity is more persuasive than any script, how emotional awareness can double your close rate, and why failing faster is the key to lasting success. This episode will remind you that mental conditioning is the foundation of every great sales streak.You'll find answers to key questions such as:What's the best way for sales reps to learn from failure and improve?How can I build real confidence in sales fast?Does being authentic really help close more door-to-door sales?What are the biggest ways sales reps sabotage their success and how can they fix it?How can sales reps handle rejection and bounce back fast?Get in touch with Colton BrockBank:

Today we break down what college never could teach me, and how door to door sales was the learning platform that gave me more insight on how business, people, and character development work. This episode goes over some lessons learned in school vs. lessons learned on the doors. I will add, there is a place for both but for someone who sees themselves as more of an own your future type of person, you will likely find yourself appreciating the opportunity d2d sales provides. I hope you enjoy.

Chad and Alex are back and breakin' it all down! From the lost art of kids actually working for their fundraisers to how our personal info is floating around online. Chad learned what “drip” means (thanks to his daughter), and let's just say… the fashion feedback wasn't great. They get into cyclists, city chaos, and planning spring training trips, and somehow still find time to talk fights, bikes, and what's coming up this hunting season. It's the perfect blend of everything that makes Breakin' It Down what it is: raw, hilarious, and always a little unpredictable.

LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ What if your faith crisis unlocked millionaire secrets? In this captivating episode of Dropping Bombs, I bring you solar sales powerhouse Tyler Bastian—who went from knocking doors at 13 with a squeegee to building a $50M empire at VITL Power (half-acquired by Freedom Forever). The real story isn't just the money—it's how he turned devastating family tragedies (losing his brother, sister, and father) into unstoppable mental fortitude that made him a door-to-door legend. Tyler reveals why solar isn't dead (despite the haters), how his 15-year-old son banks $100/hour washing windows, and the brutal truth about sales: if you're not making $20K/month, you're selling the wrong sh*t.   Here's the no-BS playbook: Door-to-door sales teaches rejection immunity and financial freedom faster than any college degree. Tyler breaks down why Utah breeds D2D champions (Mormon missions = rejection boot camp), how to handle "no soliciting" signs the right way, and the mindset shift separating six-figure earners from quitters—it's not about avoiding rejection, it's about controlling your energy recovery time. If you're trapped in a low-wage grind, swapping your precious time for scraps, here's your wake-up call: step up to commissions, master your mindset, and attack every door like it's your golden ticket. Stop working harder for less—start working smarter for more.

The Blue-Collar Twins sit down with Byron Gifford—the “godfather of door-to-door”—to unpack his ground-zero start in summer sales, the Evergreen chapters (launch, rapid expansion, strategic exits), and the operating cadence that lets his team add tens of thousands of accounts without melting down. It's a masterclass in self-financing hypergrowth, centralizing ops, and developing leaders who can actually carry the load. You'll hear: Hypergrowth reality: why fast scale feels like self-financing—and why people are harder than cash.Ground zero of D2D: Salesnet → Eclipse → starting a pest company from a marketing engine.Evergreen playbook: launch, densify, sell, reinvest—then rinse and repeat across markets.Centralized backbone: one call center, cookie-cutter ops, and tech/termite cross-sell that de-risk seasonality.Beyond the doors: building non-D2D channels (digital, referrals, tech upsells) until they rival summer volume.Leadership & longevity: morning “elevated state,” systems, and a health comeback that reset the throttle.

The Liberals laid out a number of changes to Canada Post on Thursday, including a phasing out door-to-door delivery, reducing the frequency of letter mail and lifting a moratorium on closing rural post offices. Minister of Government Transformation, Public Works and Procurement Joël Lightbound justifies the changes as 'the foundation to having Canada Post reach a break-even point' as the Crown corporation loses $10 million a day, saying 'Canadians can be footing the bill forever' unless Ottawa takes action. Plus, in an exclusive broadcast interview, Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin tells Power & Politics that U.S. tariffs have created a 'significant urgency' to expand trade with Canada, and that Ireland will be ratifying Canada's trade deal with the EU this year.

What if the very skills you’ve been avoiding in business were actually the key to unlocking your next level of growth? In this episode, I sit down with Sam Taggart—founder and CEO of D2D Experts and D2DCon—to dig into the surprising lessons hidden inside one of the toughest sales environments: door-to-door selling. Now before you think, “That’s not for me—I’m never knocking on doors!”—hang tight. Sam’s insights go far beyond sales tactics. This conversation is about courage, consistency, and building the kind of confidence that drives lasting success. If you’ve ever felt resistance to stepping outside your comfort zone, this episode will challenge the way you see growth—and reveal what’s possible when you lean into the skills most people avoid. We’ll be talking about: ➡ [0:00] Intro➡ [3:54] Early days knocking on doors and learning resilience➡ [6:38] Turning rejection into fuel for success➡ [11:27] Why discipline beats motivation every time➡ [13:34] Sam’s transition from rep to leader➡ [18:30] Building the D2D Experts community➡ [22:15] The vision➡ [28:02] How to coach teams to push past fear➡ [34:56] Biggest mistake in doing cold calling➡ [39:19] The victim, the survivor and the victor➡ [43:02] Anyone can learn➡ [45:46] Sam’s tip on quickly earning trust and getting attention➡ [48:36] Sam’s biggest advice received➡ [50:58] Sam Taggart’s recommended book➡ [52:36] Sam Taggart’ dream superpower➡ [54:18] Sam Taggart’s favourite quote➡ [55:55] Sam’s advice to his younger self➡ [1:00:32] Final thoughts Resources Recommended Book: ➡ Awareness by Anthony De Mello: https://bit.ly/47HL6rG ➡ Eat What You Kill by Sam Taggart: https://bit.ly/420xiEW Quotes: ➡ “The victor is the one who decides to win no matter the score.” ➡ “Discipline outlasts motivation every single time.” ➡ “ What I really enjoy is not you. It's something that's greater than both you and me. It's something that I discovered, a kind of symphony, a kind of orchestra that plays one melody in your presence, but when you depart, the orchestra doesn't stop. When I meet someone else, it plays another melody, which is also very delightful. And when I'm alone, it continues to play.” by Anthony De Mello About our guest: CEO of D2D Experts and Founder of D2DCON. Sam is a man molded by door-to-door sales - never having had a “real job”, he’s spent his career selling any and everything under the sun - from painting address curbs and magazine subscriptions to home security systems and solar panels. Having sold over 400 personal alarm accounts finishing #1 at Vivint in 2014 and former VP of Solcius, felt called to create something greater. He’s made it his purpose to unify, uplevel and bring honor and integrity to the door-to-door industry. Sam has consulted hundreds of companies and built multiple seven-figure businesses and has created the most effective sales training program, D2D-U, which has helped thousands of sales reps transform into regular six and seven figure earners. He is the author of “ABC$ of Closing” and “The Self-Xperience.” Sam’s influence has rippled throughout the industry and has personally mentored hundreds of CEO’s through his private mastermind, The Circle. His major strengths are Sales, Leadership and Recruiting,helping disrupt companies fast. Coming in January is the release of his new book “Eat what you Kill” Becoming a Sales Carnivore.

Today we talk about how to become more than a D2D sales rep. If you enjoy working in this industry the next step to helping you get off the doors is to start building your own sales team through recruiting. In the episode we go over some of the common failures of recruiting, how to setup a foundation to recruit, what the shared problems and their solutions are, and ultimately how to get you onto a winning team that is focused on helping you become a recruiter.I hope you enjoy this episode.

On this episode, Travis and Eric go candid on the reputation, reality, and earning potential of door to door sales. From misconceptions about “annoying” sales tactics to the immense training value and income ceiling, Travis explains why D2D still works—and how newcomers can maximize results even in less affluent or small-town markets. Top 3 Takeaways 1.  Door to door sales are thriving, especially in home services—top earners can make six figures or more, often from equal-opportunity commission structures.2.  Persistence and volume matter far more than natural ability; follow the top rep's process and double your activity to scale results.3.  Success is not location-dependent—pest control, alarms, and similar services offer solid commissions in every market, rural or urban. ✖️✖️✖️✖️

Starboard is building AI-first infrastructure to transform global trade by improving the productivity of freight forwarders—the central coordinators who connect 15-20 different parties in every international trade transaction. With 15 years of experience in the industry, including roles at Maersk, BCG, and Flexport, Sumeet Trehan saw an opportunity to modernize an industry that has invested heavily in physical infrastructure but neglected technological innovation. The company has raised $5.5 million and is approaching $1 million ARR while creating an entirely new category they call "AI-first forwarders." Topics Discussed: Building AI infrastructure to automate freight forwarding coordination and quoting processes Creating a new category in the traditional, relationship-driven logistics industry Go-to-market strategies for selling to an "old boys club" industry that operates differently from typical SaaS markets The founder's decision to personally handle the first 20-30 sales before hiring any sales staff Vision for transforming global trade by creating a comprehensive platform for small-to-mid-sized importers   GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Cold calling still works in traditional industries: Starboard generates significant top-of-funnel activity through direct cold calling, with freight forwarders actually appreciating the personal touch. Sumeet's team achieves a 10% pickup rate and converts 15-20% of answered calls to discovery meetings by being upfront about the cold call nature and immediately focusing on business outcomes. The approach works because their target market—freight forwarders—are accustomed to making and receiving cold calls as part of their daily business operations. Door-to-door prospecting remains viable for relationship-driven markets: In industries where personal relationships dominate, physical presence can be a differentiator. Starboard literally brings donuts to prospects' offices, which works because their target market values face-to-face interactions. This approach only makes sense when your industry culture supports it and when the lifetime value of customers justifies the time investment. Founders should personally execute early sales to understand the playbook: Rather than immediately hiring sales staff after raising funding, Sumeet chose to personally close the first 20-30 deals. This allowed him to deeply understand customer pain points, refine the sales process, and develop a replicable methodology before bringing on sales team members. Only after proving out the top-of-funnel motion did he hire his first SDR, and only after closing 15-20 deals did he hire a sales leader. Physical implementation presence drives early-stage product adoption: For complex B2B products still achieving product-market fit, being physically present during implementation creates stronger relationships and better feedback loops. Starboard's team travels to be on-site when clients first use the product, which helps with both adoption rates and product development insights. They maintain ongoing communication through WhatsApp and Teams channels rather than Slack, adapting to their customers' preferred communication methods. Category creation requires education over product promotion: Starboard's marketing strategy focuses entirely on educating the market about AI's potential impact on logistics rather than promoting their specific product. By speaking at events, writing blogs, and participating in podcasts about industry transformation rather than Starboard features, they position themselves as thought leaders. This approach builds trust and creates demand for the category before potential customers are ready to evaluate specific solutions. Sequencing product development based on customer feedback: The company's current quoting product serves as a wedge, with plans to expand into marketplace functionality and then full operations automation. Each expansion builds on customer relationships and data from the previous phase. This measured approach to product development ensures each step creates value while building toward the larger vision of comprehensive trade infrastructure.   //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe.  www.GlobalTalent.co   //   Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.
