    Thanks for the feedback! I'll take this into account for my next proposals. Thanks for this. Good point about the tone. I see what you mean, but you had to point it out haha. It's interesting how you just spot these things, I guess it just comes with experience.

    Hi @SinisterLex, really inspirational thread. I was wondering what you think I can improve about this proposal I just sent. Your feedback would help others on the forum too I think. I'll post the job description and my proposal as well. There wasn't much info for me to go on, but I tried making...

    I see your points, but then wouldn't I be outcome dependent? Which could affect my performance in the calls? November 7,2017 10 Cold Calls I couldn't reach any decision makers this day, either went to voicemail or I left a live message.

    November 6,2017 10 More Cold Calls, 3 Follow Ups- 2 Appointments Set Yesterday I managed to set up 2 appointments. I've realized that people really can tell by your voice whether you've genuinely took the time to look at their page and whether you can actually help them. When I was pushing...

    GOLD! SIDE HUSTLE 
    I am sending value giving emails. I prewrite them and then schedule them to be automatically sent Tuesday and Wednesday from 10 AM to 12PM. I read a report that emails have the highest chance of being opened when sent at that time. I send around 10-15 per week and then follow up on Thursday with...

    Building an online web development business(Sales calls included)

    EXECUTION 
    Hey guys, I made some follow up calls today. I got a few hangups but some of them were pretty nice. The big issue: What do you say when their website could be improved(and in 1 case the prospect said it could be improved), but they already have a firm working on it and they don't want to...

    That's a new way to look at it. Thanks for the new perspective. I never would have imagined that giving a free sample could be detrimental. Nevertheless I will test it out and report my findings:)

    Hmm interesting:) So by that reasoning if they don't ask for a sample and you supply one it's super effective. I guess you just have to weight up the opportunity cost of taking the time to create a sample, however as a total newbie it's definitely worth it.
