The great thing about sales is you can take strategies you learn and apply them in everyday life. For example, when your friends aren’t responding, try contacting them on LinkedIn or put them into an email sequence.

The average cold email has an open rate below 30 percent. That's why it's important to also call, text, dm, show up at their house, kid's baseball practice, church, befriend close family members like mothers, cousins, college roommates to get an intro.
