    Should i give up my current business and focus on the family business?

    MINDSET 
    Do you have a strong edge for your own company or a great value skew? Great responses/feedback from potential customers? Anything that says it has great potential from what you've seen? Your dad has something working right now and a lot could be learned from that you could later apply in your...

    Sales People Who Work With Thousands Of Leads - Any Advice?

    QUESTION 
    As someone in a similar position working on eventually getting out of it, my advice would be start to learn the days and time periods where the most calls come in.

    RANT 
    Maybe try a more direct line of communication like phone call? Email surveys/testimonials are so common today it is like ignoring spam snail mail unfortunately for the majority. There's a reason on Amazon Products the reviews is only 1-2% of the total purchases. Have you reached the 1-2% yet? 100+

    Anyone Use AI for Phone Answering?

    EXECUTION 
    What's the main reason for the switch over? One of the biggest advantages in the business I work in at the moment is answering the phone everytime within 1-2 rings 8am-6pm and being extremely personal and making the experience very positive for the possible customer/lead.

    MARKETING 
    Have her take a video of her cold call attempts. Let's hear them. I'm sure there's 1000's of things to critique. That's one of her main lead generation methods as well. What's your value skew? How does she stand out from the other hundred people cold calling or emailing? Arguably in person...

    Keep researching or start executing?

    That typical Scripted 27 year old who is transforming into an untypical UNSCRIPTED girl

    INTRO 
    Seems like a good opportunity to view a great differing set of products used in PT and try to find a skew and apply better value. When my girlfriend broke her pelvis I was surprised at all the little gadgets they had for her. Opportunity to sell to commercial chains of businesses or...
