  • 469: From 11-Hour Days on Foot to Full-Cycle Closer in Just 4 Months: Chaguar’s D2D Solar Sales Journey | The D2D Podcast
    Jun 24 2025

    In this episode, Hunter Lee sits down with Chaguar from Luminate Solar to talk about how door-to-door sales helped him break out of his shell. Once a shy, reserved kid who barely spoke, Chaguar now leads full solar presentations with confidence. His story proves that you don’t need to be a natural extrovert to succeed—you just need the grit to keep going.

    Chaguar shares how D2DU played a key role in accelerating his growth, how he transitioned from setter to closer, and why knocking with intention changed everything. He also breaks down the mental game—what it takes to stay focused, overcome rejection, and keep swinging that axe every day.

    If you’re a new or struggling rep, this episode is for you. It’s not just about technique—it’s about mindset, consistency, and finding your own way to win on the doors.

    You’ll find answers to key questions such as:

    • How can introverts succeed in D2D sales?

    • What mindset helps reps handle daily rejection?

    • Is full-cycle selling better than the setter-closer model?

    • How does D2DU accelerate sales performance?

    • What habits separate reps who burn out from those who grow?

  • 468: Trained 2,000+ Reps, Opened 3 Markets: Tim Veldman’s D2D Leadership Playbook | The D2D Podcast
    Jun 17 2025

    In this episode of The D2D Podcast, we sit down with Timothy Veldman, Regional Manager at Firefly Solar and a top-performing sales leader in Canada’s emerging solar industry. With 8+ years of D2D experience across telecom, fundraising, and solar — with references to the alarm industry — Tim shares his raw journey from a reluctant bricklayer to one of the most respected leaders in the space.

    Tim unpacks the power of resilience, the value of accurate expectations, and why work ethic and coachability matter more than natural sales “talent.” His insights are especially relevant for new or struggling reps, highlighting the daily grind required to build mastery — and how to fall in love with the process. He also gives us an inside look into the solar market in Canada, which is still in its early stages, and shares how it differs from the U.S. in both consumer mindset and commission structure.

    Whether you’re looking to grow your team, sharpen your leadership, or know when it’s time to step off the doors, Tim’s story and strategies will leave you fired up to recommit to the craft of door-to-door.

    You’ll find answers to key questions such as:

    • What mindset do new D2D reps need to survive their first three weeks?

    • How can leaders effectively coach underperformers while protecting their energy?

    • What makes the Canadian solar market unique, and is it worth exploring?

    • Why is coachability more important than charisma in D2D sales?

    • How do you know when it’s the right time to step off the doors as a leader?

  • 467: No Door to Door Sales Training, No Excuses: From Fixing Cars to Closing Big in 90 Days – Willian Soares’ Story – The D2D Podcast
    Jun 10 2025

    In this episode, we sit down with Willian Soares, a Brazilian-born PDR rep who went from pushing dents as a technician to becoming one of the most driven members of the League Elite. Willian shares the gritty truth about building a career in door-to-door—without mentors, without perfect English, and without excuses.

    If you're a rep grinding through the early stages or stuck in a slump, this episode is a must. Willian didn't have the ideal environment, but he created one by relentlessly learning from online content, obsessing over his process, and surrounding himself with top performers in The League.

    💡 Actionable Takeaways:

    • Slumps Are Internal: Willian shares how most slumps come from mindset—not market conditions.
    • Track What’s Working: He focuses on doubling down on tonality, engagement, and the wins—not the misses.
    • Create Your Own Mentors: He studied Sam Taggart and Alex Hormozi on YouTube until their ideas became second nature.
    • Join the Right Room: Willian’s leap in performance started when he joined the League Elite—twice. Hear what made him run like a linebacker to hand Sam his enrollment form.
    • Let Negativity Go Fast: His rule? Be a goldfish. Leave the bad doors behind and keep knocking with purpose.

    Whether you're brand new or seasoned, this episode will remind you: the top reps aren't lucky—they're intentional.
