I am an old dog, seeking to learn new tricks. For many years in my industry, cold calling was done in person. Covid changed everything. Now I need to learn to be much better and much more efficient at phone cold calling. Hoping some young pups can help this old dog to hunt on the phone - calling, texting, video, social, etc.

Hi, I'm Rhiannon and I am brand new to sales. I am (attempting) to sell process equipment to engineers and operation managers in the industrial, chemical and FMCGs sectors. Think industrial mixers, mills and packaging machines- I'm really fun at parties xx

Hi everyone, my name is Leanne, 14 years in engineering recruitment, 10yr in construction and engineering prior to 'falling' into this job. North East UK, Here to keep honing my skills, keep learning, get better everyday and trying to stand out amongst 36k other agencies.

Hello everyone! I'm excited to join this community. My name is Jayne, and I started my journey as a seller on Amazon and Etsy. With the experience I've gained, I've now transitioned to managing my own dropshipping brand. I'm eager to share my insights, learn from you all, and contribute to our mutual growth and success. Looking forward to connecting with you!

Afternoon troops, Been in sales since January, BDM for a commercial solar installer based in Scotland. In terms of the role, I’ll scope out companies that fit our criteria (typically north of Manchester, roof big enough for minimum 100kW of solar and a high energy user - manufacturer etc) then I’ll scour LinkedIn for a good person to contact which can be a stab in the dark for solar tbf (Sustainability Manager, Facilities Manager, Engineering Manager, Finance Manager, MD if I’m lucky) Then I would cold email, follow up, book a discovery meeting, get some info on their leccy consumption, leccy tariff. Then send this to our design team, they design and quote (1-2 weeks) send to me I make proposal with generation, payback, co2 reduction etc Then there’s a lot of chasing for a meeting to go through proposal or waiting for it to go through the chain of command to finally move forward with sign up for pre-construction. Then I’m a account manager in a sense until pre-construction is over and its passed onto a project manager for the install. I have only recently plucked up the courage to cold call rather than hide behind the email so just trying to learn as much as possible on it. Thanks for having me!
