You'll be able to…
- Answer the six questions every homeowner has before they ask them, in order, so most objections never come up.
- Explain cash, loan, lease and PPA, the credit check and the UCC filing in plain words, before anything is signed.
- Ramp up in 30 days with your manager, with drills, two worksheets and a sign-off list built in.
These are things the playbook teaches you to do, not promised results.
Most objections are a question nobody answered yet.
The 6 Main Questions cover the roof, the move, the cost, the maintenance, the savings and who owns it, up front and in order. The timeline answers "what's the process?" Rapport and authority answer "who is this company?" By the time a concern comes up, the homeowner has already heard the answer.
- Answer it before they ask. The pre-handle map pairs each of the 15 objections with the step that already handles it.
- Low pressure, out loud. No deadline lines. Timelines are under-promised "just to be safe." Cancellation rights are said out loud.
- Ask instead of tell. People believe what they say themselves. Feel questions check in without pushing.
| The objection | Already handled at |
|---|---|
| “We need to think about it.” | The Easy Process Statement, and decision day |
| “I want to run it by my spouse.” | The confirmation call: every decision-maker confirmed |
| “Just email me the proposal.” | Visit two, booked in person |
| “I'm not signing anything today.” | Decision day, with full disclosure |
| “The payment is higher than I expected.” | Main Question 3: no ballpark guesses, then the total |
| “Can you do better on the price?” | Right-size it: no upsell |
| “Another company quoted me lower.” | Their other quotes, on their own paper |
| “I don't want my credit run.” | The credit check, explained first |
| “I don't want a lien on my house.” | The UCC filing, said plainly |
| “Twenty-five years is a long time.” | Main Questions 2 and 4 |
| “So my electric bill goes away, right?” | Reading the bill, and Main Question 5 |
| “These savings numbers look too good.” | Under-promising, and Main Question 5 |
| “What if something breaks?” | Main Question 4, and the long-term promise |
| “My neighbor had a bad experience.” | Rapport and authority, and independent reviews |
| “We'd rather wait a while.” | Main Question 5, and no deadline lines |

One Main Question, free
Every homeowner has the same six questions, asked out loud or not. Answer them before they ask, in order. Here's number 3, word for word from Part 2E.
“How much does it cost?”
Main Question 3 of 6- Why they askThey want to know if this is even in the ballpark.
- Say this
Today I don't have numbers for you. I'll go home and do my due diligence; I won't guess at your price. I'll build a proposal on your actual usage and your roof, and walk you through it. And it doesn't make sense for everyone. If it doesn't for you, I'll tell you.
- Be straightNo ballpark figures, no "most people pay about." A guess becomes a promise in their head.
Word for word from the Kitchen Table Playbook, Part 2E (Main Question 3 of 6).

I've knocked the doors these kits are written for.
I'm Damien Day. I've spent 5+ years in solar, and before that I owned a telecom company. I've done the jobs these kits cover: knocking doors, setting appointments, cold calling, closing, marketing, and running and training sales teams. I've also started and run my own businesses, so I know what a rep's time is worth.
In 2023 I founded The Day Company LLC in Spokane, Washington. Day One kits follow one rule: every fact gets a source and a date.
I review every kit before it ships. I won't promise you'll close more, because that depends on you, your market and your company. I'll promise words you can say out loud and still feel good about.

Refund PolicyQuestions
Does it work for virtual appointments?
Yes. Every step has a virtual version. The paperwork section explains that cancellation rules can differ for sales made by phone or video.
Can I add my company's details?
Yes. The Word file is editable. Fill every [bracket] with your company's real facts: license number, warranties, financing terms, and your utility's rates and export rules.
Is this legal or tax advice?
No. It's sales training. Follow your company's approved scripts, disclosures and agreements, and your state's rules.
Will it help me close more deals?
We don't promise that. Results depend on you, your market and your company. What you get is a clear process you can say out loud and still feel good about.
Is it in the membership?
Yes. The Rep Membership includes the Kitchen Table Playbook, the Knock-to-Booked Playbook, the No-Credit Close, Kit 02 and every new Day One kit released while you're subscribed. Buying the playbook on its own doesn't come with a membership credit.
