I've got a few influences when it comes to sales philosophy. Alex Hormozi, Andy Elliot, Grant Cardone, Gary Vee. But I've also got some D2D sales training / experience in my late teen years that really helped a lot with basic practices and confidence. Your main focus should be introduction and then move into pitch. Keep the conversation in your frame. Using a script is something I've never personally done. People can sniff that out from a mile away. If you want to increase your close rates, learn how to pattern interrupt the prospects.
