Cold calling throughout pandemic. Thoughts? Tips? Creative ideas?

One of the hardest things to do in business and in sales is to have someone love what you do so much that they'll put their name on the line and refer you business.

That's a relationship you have to nurture.

And I bet that most of you have more than a handful of happy customers who would refer you business. The easiest way to get more leads and pipeline is to ask for referrals.

May 2023 grad looking for mentorship from a sales professional. I have a lot of questions, but need some perspective. I'm being recruited by big companies and feeling lost. I'm interested in tech/consulting/big data, but open to other ideas.

PM me if you're open to answering some entry level sales questions and maybe being a mentor if we vibe. Or just drop a piece of advice you wish you knew as an entry level salesperson and what companies to avoid.

@Revolut when do new hires get paid their sign-on equity bonus

Do you think there’s a glass ceiling for out gay employees? I’ve been with my (now) husband for the last two decades and had three positions. I’ve absolutely excelled in each, winning awards, exceeding goals, working well. But with each position, I’ve had difficulty getting promoted. I even took on the responsibilities of a senior director after his firing and I couldn’t get promoted. My handpicked successor — who I think is an excellent marketer — became a director almost immediately.

I can’t believe how people in Big 4 think what they do matters. Blows my mind.

If you had a choice between Jones Day and Schulte, which would/should you choose and why? It’s hard to look pass the ranking/prestige of Jones Day but they are black box whereas Schulte is lockstep and a funds specialist firm which could lead to GC roles at a fund quite easily in the long term. That’s not the long term play here, but just stating a fact to consider. Also keep in mind I would be lateraling in from out of state.
