What were they cold calling for? I have done many sales jobs and got use to cold calling. I know people cold call for wholesaling houses and land.. anyone see people cold call for their own business? What was it?

I tried it myself on my own business and was no good even after a few months of practice, I only secured a few sales. Hired someone that was experienced in sales specifically with cold calls and some days he would secure 5 wholesale accounts in a day. He made just shy of 100k his first year in commissions. Unfortunately he was an ex drug addict which made him hard to work with and he ended up relapsing. Despite all of his shortcomings I bent the rules for him a bit because he was just so damn good at his job.

YOU try cold calling people for 8 hours a day every day for years without drugs! 🤣 Sounds like you both found a good fit for a while.
