#1315 Sales tactics from a cold-calling machine – with Raj Bhaskar


Listen Later

Today I’ve got an interview for you with someone who feels like a cold calling machine. I don’t know that I’ve ever interviewed someone who embraces the idea of cold calling, who loves it so much.
Frankly, I feel that if you can cold call, you have a super power because you can sell from anywhere, you can build a business from anything, you can learn from your customers what to create.
Specifically what I like is that before he built the first big version of his software, he started making phone calls, many more than you, the person who’s listening to me, is probably going to have the guts, time, or energy to make. He did it. He learned from those customers. He built a great product. He built an incredible company and then ten years after he launched it, he sold the business.
Today I invited him here to talk about how he did it and what he’s working on now.
