Been cold calling for a while and can't land my first deal what am I missing?
Hey everyone, I'm a beginner wholesaler in Milwaukee trying to get my first deal. I've been building my list and cold calling motivated sellers but nothing is converting yet and I'm starting to wonder if I'm doing something wrong. Right now cold calling is basically my only strategy because I don't have the budget for mailers, ads, or a lot of extra software. I'm putting in the work but the results aren't there yet. For those of you who've been in my shoes what actually helped you land that first deal? Some things I'm wondering about Is my script the problem, or is it just a numbers game? How many calls did it take before you got your first lead? Any free or cheap strategies I should add on top of calling? How do you handle sellers who seem interested but then go cold? Not looking for anyone to hold my hand, just real talk from people who've been here. Appreciate any advice.
