Few things in life I enjoy more than cold calling, cold brews, & making RUclips videos 😄 Ps. My computer ran out of storage as soon as I started recording, which is why the video feed of me was not working (way better with it I know). I thought about not posting this but who cares that it's not perfect, at least you can still hear the audio. This video is for educational purposes only. Plz enjoy! 🚀
Thanks for posting this anyways. I loved the first call Make sure your computer SSD has more than 20% of free storage, otherwise it will shorten it's lifespan
With this line, I was able to book two appointments this week! I recall a line you shared on another video of your's " ...at the end of our meeting, you will be all the more confident in your current solution, or you'll see a big area of room for improvement". Line is so good I placed it in our RBO handling of our company outbound playbook. Nice one, Trent!
Great point about embracing imperfections; it's the content that counts. For those cold calling, remember that timing is key-calling between 4-5 pm can increase your chances of a successful call since decision-makers are often wrapping up their day and more open to discussions. Also, using a local area code can boost answer rates by up to 400%! Keep hustling out there!
Trent - I am retooling my career - transitioning from Field Sales to Remote WFH BB cold calls. and I find your content very helpful. Thank you! its the Grind brother! I am 60 and and can learn so much from you. "Obsess on the process and emotionally detatch from the results... what matters is making the calls" Keep it up.
Really need all of this. Making a huge change in my career. Makes me nervous taking my tech saws call, but I’m ready to put in the work and just “not focus on the result” let’s go Trent, huge inspiration.
Bro 😂😂😂 when you said “I’m running a marathon this weekend…. That I haven’t been training for” I paused the video and started cracking up and said out loud “bros gonna be suffering” play the video and that’s the next thing you said haha loving this more humorous narration style
Hey Trent, love these recent cold call videos. Ever thought about doing an in-depth video on your use of Apollo. If you've already done it and I missed it, apologies. Up the good work.
Class is in session! Great content as always. I only watch this channel and Y Combinator because they're the only two channels I feel actually bring value to my business.
I'm actually making an in depth outbound prospecting course and just recorded the section of me finding leads yesterday, hoping to launch early March 👍
I just started a cold calling job and is very difficult! They just hung up! I wish I could be more chatty but people don't want to give their email, is the only thing that we need to get
Few things Trent, and I’ve been watching you for a while and gotten a ton of value. Anywho: 1) When a call hangs right up - it’s likely there on a do not call/spam list 2) You said you manually dial 1 at a time. Are you also using local presence? 3) Do you also use sms and if so could you share a little bit on that? Thanks brother
Hey trent. Question. Was calling plumbers today and 3 times it seems the phone was answered but no one said anything. Does that happen to you? What does it mean?
@@TrentDressel I did try to talk. Even called twice and the same thing happened. Also got told not to call again today by a gatekeeper. I called 11 people 2 picked up and spoke. 2-3 did the no talking thing. Weird day. Both were nos.
Hey , Trent this is awesome content . I am am from South Africa , and interested in an SDR role , but we don’t have a lot of opportunities this side . So you think it’s possible to work remotely for US companies? Thanks
@@TrentDressel another stupid question.. does LinkedIn sales nav give you their direct numbers to call or do you discover that from Apollo or some other system like rocket reach?

Where did u get the 400% increase from? Maybe I should switch numbers if that's the case

Hey Trent, could you do videos on how to got your leads? Or what you do to get leads?
I'm actually making an in depth outbound prospecting course and just recorded the section of me finding leads yesterday, hoping to launch early March 👍

1. I do not belive this premise to be true
2. local presence
3. No
Does local presence make that much of a difference?
@@Jordan22220 yes for us. If me & my team do 100 calls on ghl w/o it we might get 15-25ish pickups. With LP we get 30-50ish
+1 for dailies, coming from a software developer.
LIKE IT UP!!
Starting off strong!
💪
Would love to see the 100!
Curious what software you're using? Sounds like hubspots dialer but not the UI.

Try to talk, maybe they were trying to mess with you

Hey , Trent this is awesome content .

Man im so frustrated, i have been having troubles getting pass the gatekeepers🤦🏽♂️
part of the experience
What's software do you use to get your call lists? What software do you use to organize all of your calls and everything?
I find leads using linkedin sales nav on my own
@@TrentDressel another stupid question.. does LinkedIn sales nav give you their direct numbers to call or do you discover that from Apollo or some other system like rocket reach?
@@TrentDressel another another stupid question.. do you do any emailing campaigns before you set up your call campaigns?

"Hey im Cold calling you, would you like to hang up or may i take 30 seconds of your time?
Trent, do you ever leave voicemails or no?
I like to but not doing it for the vids
🏃♂️➡️🏃♂️➡️🏃♂️➡️
How would you respond if they say that what you offer is not a priority?
Only reason this happens is bc your messaging isn't relevant to the buyer persona
Do you usually leave a voice message?
I like to but not doing it for the vids
After a month🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️
🏃
You don't recommend leaving voicemails?
I do but not doing it for the video
