I made a post asking how long I should continue to follow up with someone before just giving up. Giulio commented something like "keep calling until one of you dies". And it's still the best advice I've gotten in regards to sales! After TWO YEARS of reaching out to a contact regularly, and getting pushed off every time, I finally got the sale today!!! I had actually just spoke to my contact last week and he pushed me off again, but the next day he reached out and put me in touch with the owner. And he put in a good word for me to the owner, making my job of selling my services that much easier. Just wanted to share the importance of following up regularly (and for eternity lol) with contacts and standing out so when they do have a need, you're the first person they think to reach out to. If nothing else, this should give you hope when you call a contact for the 800th time and get turned down or pushed off for the 800th time-- it'll turn into something... eventually!

Dear underdogs, As you may have all noticed, the community has been dying down. I run my whole business exclusively with the help of @Cinzia Sirbu, and we simply do not have much spare time. The paid community, Underdog Sales Academy, has been growing like crazy, and my time is tied up there. The free community will close in the next 14 days. If you wish to join the paid community, you can check it here: https://underdogsales.lpages.co/elite/ Thanks for being part of the community. I hope it helped everyone. Happy Dialling. Giulio

I saw someone post about an angry lead. Some leads can be like that, or sometimes even sarcastic, like the lead I had. However, I simply pushed through it, just as Giulio does, and moved on. This reminded me of Giulio's blooper videos 😂

What’s your go-to opener that turns a cold call into a warm conversation?
