What's New in Canvassing
I've been refining my pitch throughout the past couple of weeks and focusing on setting up appointments for people who may have not thought of solar before, but who are generally interested. The pitch I had used in the first couple of weeks of canvassing tended to overload homeowners with too much information. They then wanted to think about solar more on their own time and would not be inclined to set up an appointment.
I've also started a pretty lively discussion on LinkedIn's Solar Power Society with a post about canvassing-related blog posts. A woman who works with SolarCity in California has provided useful references for the positive effect of solar panels on house prices. I will read the articles and reports carefully and hope to use them to pitch solar to homeowners whose main concern is that they may move in the next couple of years.
