For security sales companies

Door-to-door reps for security sales companies

Knock Alarm recruits door-to-door reps for home security and smart-home sales companies. We find the applicants, tell them plainly what the job is, confirm they'll travel for summer, run a first call, and introduce the ones who fit. You interview, decide, sign and train. You pay us for reps who start and sell, never for applications.

What you get

• Reps who know it's door to door. Every page on our site says so in the first sentence, and our first call asks again. Nobody reaches you thinking it's an office job.
• Summer travel confirmed up front. Our teams knock locally all year and travel for summer. We ask about travel on the application and again on the call, with dates and anything that limits them.
• A first call already done. Background, door-to-door history, a specific door they're proud of, why now, whether a commission-based plan works for them, age, licensing concerns, transportation. You get the notes with the introduction.
• Experienced reps and whole crews. We hear from reps coming from solar, pest control, roofing, fiber internet and wireless, and from managers who want to move a team.
• Applicants who were told the truth. We don't publish earnings figures, so nobody shows up expecting a number you never promised.

How it works

1. Tell us what you need. Offices, summer markets, how many reps, start dates, your pay model (W-2 or 1099, commission or base), housing and any licensing you handle.
2. We recruit and screen. Applicants come from our site and our outreach. We call each one, ask the same questions every time and pass only the ones who fit your terms.
3. You get an introduction. Name, contact details, the call notes and what they're looking for. Your recruiter or manager takes it from there.
4. You interview, sign and train. Every hiring or contracting decision is yours. You give the rep your pay plan and terms in writing.
5. You report funded accounts monthly. One short report per rep we sent. That's what our fee is checked against.

How we're paid

You pay a fee per funded account sold by reps we introduced, for a set term, after a short activation period. No fee for applications, interviews or reps who never start. The exact terms go in a written agreement before we send anyone. Applicants never pay us anything, and our fee never comes out of a rep's pay plan.

What we ask of partners

• Sell under your real company name, with rep ID that homeowners can verify.
• Train reps to follow the rules at the door: say who they work for, never claim to be the homeowner's current provider, explain the right to cancel. See our rules page.
• Give every rep the pay plan, housing and travel terms in writing before they commit.
• Handle state licensing or registration for reps where it's required.
• Tell us if a rep we introduced isn't working out, so we can improve who we send.

We don't introduce applicants to teams that won't do these things. Our applicants read a checklist of what to ask any team before they talk to you, and the good teams like that.

How we treat your brand

We don't name a partner or its brand on our site, in job listings or in ads without its written OK. Applicants learn who you are when we introduce them. If you give us permission to name you, we follow your brand rules and any rules your brand gives its authorized dealers or contractors.

Who we work with

Security sales companies, authorized dealers and contractors that sell home security or smart-home systems door to door, with local offices and a summer program. If you also sell energy or other home services door to door, tell us; we may still be a fit. Our sister brand, KnockFiber, recruits for door-to-door fiber internet sales.
