Short answer: a door-to-door sales blitz is when a sales team travels to one market and works it hard for a set stretch of time. In fiber internet, blitzes usually happen right after fiber gets built in a town or a group of neighborhoods, while nobody has knocked those doors yet.
Why blitzes exist
When a provider finishes building fiber somewhere, there’s a window where every home on those streets is a fresh conversation. Most people are on slower internet and haven’t been pitched yet. A blitz puts a full team on that territory at once so it gets covered while it’s fresh, then the team moves to the next build.
What a blitz day looks like
Blitz days are long. Here’s the Pink Team schedule: a 12-hour day with about 9hours on doors.
| Time | What’s happening |
|---|---|
| 9:00 AM | Morning meeting |
| 9:30 AM | Training |
| 10:00 AM | Out to area |
| 10:30 AM | First door |
| 2:00 PM | Lunch |
| 2:30–8:00 PM | Knock |
| 9:00 PM | Evening breakdown |
The morning meeting and training set up the day. The evening breakdown is where the team goes over what worked.
Housing and pay
Every company handles this differently, so ask. At Pink Team, housing on blitzes is fronted, so you don’t need money saved up to go, and the cost comes out of your commissions. Every deal pays $150 to $350.
Who blitzes are good for
- People who want to make as much as possible in a short stretch
- People who don’t mind long days and being on the road
- Newer reps who learn fastest by knocking a lot of doors next to experienced ones
Most Pink Team work is blitzes. If you need to be home every night, tell us where you live when you apply. When we have a market near you, local work is an option.
