Comment on Day #1 of my startup: Making sales calls.

Comments

This brings back memories of me 15 years ago with the phone in one hand and Thomas Register in another, trying to drum up business.

Tons of calls, not a single sale. But the education was worth it. Be unfailingly polite, "smile" at the phone and never forget that the worst thing they can do is hang up on you.

Thankfully, I'm dumb enough to keep trying.

Thanks for the input.
