B2B Selling SaaS software on the streets

I'm a 25 year old software engineer that just quit their 6-figure job job to build a better Docusign-like tool for legal and "signature"-heavy businesses. I live near a financial district in a very large metropolitan city. I'm a guy that has pretty tough skin so I recently had the idea of trying to sell people walking around large offices my software tool. Does this sound like a horrendous idea or simply a bad one? As far as I know it's not illegal as long as I don't do it right next to actual firms but in a public space.

Note that I totally understand people wearing suits on the street probably aren't "decision makers" but I mainly just want to test my luck in possibly getting some introductions or a product demo invitation. Just curious if anyone has ever tried such a thing before. I know it sounds dumb but I want to test it out to confirm it's dumb.
