Selling door to door

One thing I did yesterday. I contacted a man who does the same business I'd like to do - to sell journals. He is in business for a long time. I took from the conversation with him that my business idea is doable. He is concentrated on journals, too. In addition he sells an Italian luxury product. I asked him how he found costumers. He advised to go downtown to speak in person with the business owners. "Try to get an appointment. That's it. Too many people use the telephone." I am happy that I got this valuable information. But it is also daunting. To show up in shops and make business door to door is not easy.

Has anybody of you already done this?
