AGL South Australia and its marketing company CPM Australia will have to pay a total of $60,000. The court said a sales representative ignored a sign on a front door with an image of a fist knocking with a line through it.
It also had the words "Do not knock, unsolicited door to door selling is not welcome here". The seller still knocked on the door of the house at Elizabeth East in Adelaide and offered the resident an energy supply deal.
The court ordered AGL to pay $35,000 and CPM $25,000 over that matter. Justice John Middleton found "the contravention subverted both the consumer's desire not to be disturbed or interrupted by sales representatives and the very protections provided to the consumer by the legislation".

It's a digital era no one like door-knocking. You need to have a digital presence using SEO techniques like a press release."Regardless of your business domain, a press release can help your business or organization's media coverage across the globe and within your community. A professionally written and widely discussed Press release distribution can help your company gain coverage in news outlets both local and not-so-local trade publications, influential blogs, industry-specific journals, and other targeted publications.
