Energy Online: Goodbye Door Knockers

This was a real-world demonstration of how Energy Online got rid of door knockers as a sale’s tool. Contagion replaced a gargoyle door knocker with an actual person. So, when unsuspecting door knockers approached and knocked his face, they got more than they bargained for. The gargoyle sprung to life, told the door knockers to leave his home alone, and got rid of the door knockers on behalf of Kiwis across the country. While some salespeople were persistent, another gargoyle statue came to life to give them one last scare. As the door-to-door salespeople ran away in fear a title came up to say, ‘Door knocking is so last century, so we got rid of them. Get the best deals online, anytime.’
