Ryan’s Corner - What Is He Up To?

I updated my offering so I now do cold calls for my clients prior to launching email.

Like we literally pick up the phone and do 400 dials on day 1. We learn extremely quickly what messaging works because the people will either say it hits, or hang up on us.

Here are the results of a most recent campaign. 2 meetings booked in 1 day, its awesome. It allows us to hit our guaranteed 10 meetings very quickly.
