Hey sales fiends, is there any free software that enables you to capture lead information (prospects cell phones + emails)?

Not currently employed anywhere, but to be frank, I want to practice my cold calls in real time even before landing that sales position:)

Any ideas?

Are you saying you want to cold call without a real product to sell for practice?

If you haven’t already, check out programs like Aspireship and re:work for free tech sales training programs.

I’ve never heard of this, but I’m a CSM so I don’t sell. I can say if someone called me and tried this I would be really angry and would not want to offer feedback… Also there is a process IRL, like leads are usually qualified by marketing or sales before someone calls to close. So cold calling leads that aren’t qualified and getting them to stay on the line long enough to give feedback might be low yield.

Role playing/sample calls are part of sales training programs like the ones I mentioned above!

There are a lot of CRM tools that offer free versions. Hit up Google.

Thanks! Will do asap!

Finished my loop for a marketing role 2 weeks ago, and got an email the next day that they wanted to give me an offer. Had my initial call with recruiter to put the offer together. It was lower than I expected, and we ended that call positively as I needed some time to consider, and we agreed to follow up in a few days. It’s now been a week and both recruiters have been unresponsive. Did I just lose this offer bc I tried to negotiate a more equitable comp pack, or is it a slow process?
