    The Proven Path to a Fastlane (Still Open for 2024)

    MARKETPLACE 
    So I've been in @Fox web school for about 6 months or so now and can easily say it's been worth the investment.

    Cheers @Fox Update for today, made 25 cold calls, not really feeling any nerves or anxiety on the calls now. I did get slightly tripped up over my words once or twice but recovered pretty well.
