D2D Sales: The Modern Rite of Passage with Jay Riding | EP 394
Jay Riding started knocking doors at 16 and never stopped until he'd built one of the largest door-to-door sales teams in America. As founding partner of EcoShield, now the #3 privately-held pest control company in the United States, Jay went from broke college kid to leading 40 locations nationwide. In this episode of The Next Level Podcast with Jeremy Miner, Jay reveals how door-to-door sales forged his mindset, his money, and the leadership that built an empire. You'll learn how to master rejection, sell without being pushy, and build real certainty on the doors. Jay and Jeremy break down why culture beats commission, how to turn a summer job into six-figure savings, and the habits that make average reps fearless closers.
