    I actually love it when they ignore my "No Soliciting" sign because I get to spend the next hour pretending to be their next sale, it's almost like a fun little hobby. I come outside and pretend to be interested to engage a complete stranger that I didn't invite to my home, then ask a lot of gullible leading questions, and pretend to be the kind of low hanging fruit they think they're going to close a deal on, before revealing that they literally wasted every bit of their efforts and got clowned for an hour after I say "well thanks, I really appreciate all the info, maybe this will teach you a valuable lesson about ringing doorbells that say no soliciting on them" before going back inside and closing the door.

      A "no soliciting" sign removes the assumed validity of someone to be on your property. But you're right, a sign should be more explicit: "No Soliciting. If you are here to solicit, this serves as a notice that your business here is rejected and by not leaving, you are trespassing." Still not going to stop some people though.

      I don't know where you "heard" that from, but that is incorrect. Even just buying something at the store is a contract. The basic elements required for a contract to be legally enforceable are: mutual assent, expressed by a valid offer and acceptance; adequate consideration; capacity; and legality
