If a salesman knocked on your door and asked politely if you have a few minutes to see what he has to offer before he gave a sales pitch, (Question1)how would you react since he politely asked if you had a few minutes to listen to him in the first place?
For me, I politely said, "sure what it is you have to offer?" and actually took my time to decide i wasn't interested. He wasn't pressuring and he was fine with my decision. (Question2)Would you enjoy more salesmen to be like this when they approach your door or would you still prefer to rid them completely?
This is the wrong section, but at this time of the night people are more active in this section.

I just had one of these guys stop by my house earlier this week. I told him I couldn't spend that kind of money without asking my husband. That was my way of not being rude considering he interupted my lunch and my two year old knocked it all over the floor while I was at the door talking to him. My husband and I got up to leave this morning and on our little narrow road passed the salesmen I coulnd't believe he went out of his way to come back. Oh well it was his wasted gas it was pretty obvious I didn't want the books and was trying to polietly rid him. I say wasted gas because I live way out in the country and I don't think he got alot of buisness out here. Also I don't want salemen at my door because even though YOU may be trustworthy I don't know who is scamming me. So I would rather not give any stranger my money to run off with. Now if you have the product with you...Maybe. However the Good Ole...I'll deliver the product later with half down doesn't cut it.

personally, i like to avoid people who want to sell me stuff, i may look through the peep hole in the door and go and sit down again because i just dont have the money for their things and unless i have an actual chance of helping them, i dont do a false hope thing

I'd rather not have them there at all, but if they were very polite that would certainly increase their chances of talking me into hearing their pitch.

well, if he's being polite about it, i'd politely tell him that i'm not interested and to have a nice day. and i'd rather just not have solicitors come to my door. it really pisses off my family

I use the peep hole OFTEN! Hee Hee! If I don't know them, I don't answer. That way, I don't have to deal with telling them no. I hate letting people down. I ccc...can't say no! lol

it's nicer of them, but it makes it harder for me to yell and them and shut the door... or ignore them completely. i'd rather be rid of all of them. oh and to the first question, i'd say, "no, i'm busy."
