Episode notes

Daniel: Cold calling is not dead. If you have three channels and one of them isn't cold call, you simply are not doing what it takes to win in this environment. He says the first goal is to get someone's attention; then figure out ways to keep the attention. Daniel: The concept of inbound has never been tested during a proper like multi month or multi year recession. All things considered, which people don't get that helps.

As the founder of Sales Team Builder LLC., Leslie Venetz spends her time helping commercial teams build repeatable processes and winning playbooks that produce revenue.

She chats with Daniel about the things that encourage marketing success, like ensuring consistency in messaging, reassuring prospects that sales and marketing have their best interests at heart, and avoiding overly flowery language in sales copy.

Plus, if you aren’t using cold-calling as a channel, find out why Leslie thinks you may not have what it takes to win in a sales environment.
