Here’s what we’re asking: Can cold calling really hold its own in the age of AI? Is the human touch still essential, or can automation replace it in B2B deals? How can AI enhance the selling process without losing that personal connection? You’ll hear Richard make a compelling case for why cold calling is far from dead, while Alex challenges its relevance in today’s tech-driven landscape. https://youtu.be/XFryzr3u8BY Expect a lively debate with actionable strategies for sales and customer success teams navigating this rapidly changing frontier.

We just happen to be pretty good at it ourselves and want to share our approach with you! Almost four years ago my son, Jordan, Jensen and I were banging our heads against a brick wall trying to make our clients successful at developing pipeline, something every business we spoke to was struggling with in one form or another, whether it's size, quality or progression.
