How did you get over your fear of cold calling?
Hey everyone. There’s some awesome information in this sub and have a big question for the masses, title.
I’m highly motivated and have been at work for almost 2 months learning this business. I’ve got skip traced lists, CRM active, LLC and business entity squared away, and i’m finally ready for outreach. I want sooo badly to achieve real momentum and progress but my fear of calling is holding me back
This week, i sent about 400 emails out so far and returned about 8 replies / 7 rejections. Huge milestone for me but I know cold calling is much more effective. I finally mustered the courage to dial today and made 15, got 1 answer / rejection and got to my KPI after.
I want to become consistent before I start making a million calls or purchase a dialer. Today was a sudden burst of confidence but I want to shift my mindset towards something more sustainable long term. It feels like I hear and understand all the basic advice, stuff like “Doing it is the hardest part”, “It gets easier with time” or “The only way to get better is to do”, but can’t actually apply it myself regardless of the hunger and desire for success that I wake up with every day
Appreciative of any and all perspectives offered here. Thanks everyone!
