[QUOTE="Treegrower, post: 323992, member: 11614"] WOW!! Maybe I should get back into "selling" on the route. I quit turning in any leads a few years ago. I have the same exact route and same exact pickups everyday. Lots of residential growth, not so much commercial. A new small "mom and pop shop" here or there. Anyway I used to turn in leads evry time I saw FedEx overnights or ground or DHL or USPS packages lying around. I'd take down all the info right off of the competitiors packages fill out the sales leads and turn them in. I did a ton of them. After a while I noticed we even got some of that business. When I inquired about the "pay" and "cash" for my efforts I was stone walled. I complained up the chain of command and after months and months of bickering I was finally told by our B.D. district mgr.? That I couldn't be paid for any of those because the actuall shipping did not originate in my center/delivery-pickup area/district/ ect. ect. I havent turned in a sales lead since. Not even the obligitory once a year harrasment one. No more. [/QUOTE]
