    90 Day Cold Calling Challenge

    EXECUTION 
    I'm happy to see this post. Not many people are willing to pickup the phone these days. My advice for you would be to just get in there and start. I was once told this and it was the best advice ever given to me. You're going to mess up on some of the calls. You're going to get hung up on a...

    Getting Rid of Cold Calling Anxiety Using Brute Force

    GOLD! 
    Cold calling is definitely not the most effective form of acquiring customers. It is way more effective to spend money on advertisement and close deals with customers who are already looking for your product/service. Regardless, cold calling will always be the most cost effective and scalable...

    Is this normal in sales?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Definitely Normal. My industry is also super saturated and can take over 200 calls to land 1 appointment. Regardless, cold calling is probably the most cost effective and efficient way to scale most B2B businesses. It will probably be for a long time as well. Funny thing is, most of these...

    Cold Callers: Autodial Softwares

    Fastlaners! Ahhh I love this group. Quick question to those here who do lots of cold calling. My local company did over 20,000 cold calls to local businesses. We are using an autodialer, but I don't really like it and I feel like its a bit outdated. What would you say is the best autodialer...

    B2B Sales & Businesses: Do we need to worry?

    MARKETING 
    I'm in a couple B2B Sales businesses. I was just curious and had a couple questions about the future of B2B Sales. Do you think Cold Calling Will Ever Become Outlawed in the US? If not, how long will cold calling stay effective? Now when I say telemarketing, I don't mean like robocalls. But...
