not very high...but I only started a couple weeks ago. I'm around 8-9k...but I'm averaging about 3700/week. I was so mad. I didn't even pull 2k last week. I had 6 no show/no calls 3 cancelations!

got any tips for a new guy?

When people no-show on me, I just either leave them a note or a message on their answering machine right when I decide I have waited long enough and am leaving. The message usually says something like "I'm sure you are really busy, so I'll just get back to you later to set up a time that works better for you, talk to you later"- just make sure it isn't rude or sarcastic, because most people are genuinely sorry they forgot you. That way, you can call them in a day or two to reschedule. Make sure you call them within 3 or 4 days of the missed demo, or they may be upset you never got back to them.

I work out of the Kelowna office (B.C.) Pacific Coast division.

At the last conference some FSMs were giving us tips. And as for handling no-shows, this one guy said leave a note "Roses are red, violets are blue, I was here, where were you?"

that is pretty gutsy...but kinda amusing...

Haha that is funny, but so not me. If I tried to do that, it would just come off as sarcastic or insulting when the customer met me... Kinda like Gerry Odeson's "Don't just sit there; buy something!" cards. It only works for some people. By the way, where are you from?
