What if the fastest way to get a job, validate a business idea, or reach a billion-dollar company is simply picking up the phone?Most people think cold calling is spam. Saad argues it can be one of the most powerful business skills you can have because, with the right approach, you can reach people who would otherwise be almost impossible to access.In this episode, we sit down with Saad, a salesman and sales trainer who has spent over a decade studying how people buy, to break down the psychology, strategy, and mechanics behind high-level sales and cold calling.You'll discover:• Why a $20,000 cold-calling exercise saved a company nearly $500,000 by proving its business idea was wrong before it invested heavily.• Why cold calling may be the fastest way to get a job, including how Saad got a job offer after just his third cold call.• The 30-second rule that determines whether a cold call survives, and why most salespeople lose before they even start pitching.• The "Old Friend" opening that makes strangers ask YOU who you are instead of immediately hanging up.• Why the person asking questions controls the conversation, and how salespeople use questions to move prospects toward a decision.• The "Value Delta" that makes selling dramatically easier, and why the best salespeople aren't really taking money from customers.• The four pillars of tonality, and how changing them can completely change how a prospect feels.• How to handle "too expensive" and "we don't have the budget" objections by discovering what the objection actually means.• The BANT framework, Budget, Authority, Need, and Timeline, that separates genuine prospects from people who are merely interested.• Why saying "When do you want to get on a call?" is a mistake, and the tiny change that makes it easier for prospects to actually commit.If you've ever wondered how the best salespeople make strangers listen, uncover what customers actually want, and turn a cold call into a business opportunity, this episode is for you.Watch the full episode and learn how to master the art of cold calling, sales, customer research, and persuasion.
