How do you connect your daily grind to your 10-year vision? (Sanity check on a tool I'm building)
IDEAThanks a lot for those suggestions, didn't know about them.

How to do cold outreach for market research?
MARKETINGThose are some great insights. My best bet would be to use CRM support groups. The problem is that people there are asking for an expert. Do I get on a call with them even if I'm not completely familiar with the CRM they are using? I wouldn't do that because I would waste their time. Besides...- fiola
