So I've been doing cold outreach and lead propsceting for my lead gen agency consistenly for 11 days now (before that, when I would half-a$$ my business, I would do 5 days and then give up), and I was wondering if cold calling is really necessary to land my first few clients.
I'm getting good responses from cold emailing right now, no hard yes's yet, but I'm seeing more traction.
My natural strengths tend to lean towards writing. I can hop on a sales call and close just fine but for some reason I dread doing cold calls, probably because I don't really call my friends that much, we just text each other then meet up in-person.
I can still do cold calls and overcome the pain and discomfort no problem, as long as it'll get me that first client. But given the fact that I'm still in university, would it be a more wise use of my time to cold email 80% of the time and pick up the phone the remainder 20% of the time?
Would love to hear about this from the more experienced folk in the agency space.
