In Las Vegas we have tons of solar salespeople that knock on your door and try to get you to sign up.
And I've talked to a lot of people that find it annoying.

But it also has you chasing down leads begging to chat with them. But what if there was a different way? Where instead, you could flip the script and have them begging to chat with you?
Well that is what we discussed on this week's Aloha Friday Local Marketing Jam Session.
During it, I revealed how we set up “greased chute systems” that have clients slipping and sliding all the way down and naturally leading to sales.
