Practice the door before the season starts
Door-to-door teams hire in classes and sell on a script. Shadowpitch lets every new rep say the pitch and answer the objections out loud before their first real door, and shows managers who is ready.
By industry
How a door goes
Every door-to-door pitch has the same four parts. Reps practice each one out loud.
The approach
Ten seconds to earn thirty: who you are, why you are on their street, and one question about their home.
The pitch
What you do, in their terms, and a small next step rather than a signature.
The objections
Not interested, busy, the spouse, the payment. Every one has a good answer, and reps should have said it before they need it.
The close
The paperwork, the credit check and the ask, said plainly enough that the homeowner could explain it back.
What reps hear at the door
Why practice out loud
A rep who has read the answer to “I need to talk to my husband” still freezes the first time they hear it. A rep who has said it twenty times answers it like the fifth door of the day.
In Shadowpitch a voiced homeowner says the line, the rep answers out loud, and keeps the take worth hearing. Managers hear those takes and approve who is ready for the field, and the best rep’s answer becomes the one every new rep hears.
Questions
Which door-to-door teams is Shadowpitch for?
Teams that hire in classes and sell on a script: solar, home security, pest control and roofing, and any other team where a rep has ten seconds at a door to earn the next thirty.
When should a new class start practicing?
Before their first real door. Most teams recruit in the winter and knock from spring; reps who have said the pitch and the common objections out loud a few dozen times start the season sounding like their second month.
Do reps practice on their phones?
Yes. It runs in the browser on a phone or a laptop, with nothing to install, so a rep can run a door between appointments or in the car before a shift.
Can we use our own pitch and our own objections?
Yes. Your playbook becomes the plays: the steps of your door, your objections and your best rep’s answers. The pages here are a starting point, not a script you have to adopt.
