No external factor is necessary to "get you out of" talking to a door-to-door salesman. It really is as simple as saying "get the fuck off my property" and slamming the door in their face.
or just say you're satanic
That would get rid of Jehovah's Witnesses, but I see little reason to think it was would necessarily be effective on salespeople.
If, for some reason, you're unwilling to treat these worthless in-person spammers with the contempt they deserve, my suggestion is to remember that "no" is a complete sentence.
