This gives me the ick

I’ve don’t social assignments before, but that was for a CEO of a small company who had a hard time getting his head around how to judge a creative candidate for hiring, feels odd if this is a creative agency or department. There’s a reason we have portfolios, but if you really want the job idk a good way around it, especially in a market where there might be a lot of candidates who are willing to do homework to get the job 🤷‍♂️

you are right. I have a pretty solid portfolio sharing a diverse range of my expertise. I could understand if it were maybe one task, but all three is a comprehensive amount of time and creative ideation without compensation.

Hey friends. Recently joined a startup with a heavy reliance on outbound sales strategy. Without a phone number... what are some of your best ways to get meetings booked with prospects?

Our product sells itself, but how do you set yourself apart to get the initial meeting booked?
What mediums do you use with cold outreach that you find most effective?
What copy have you found gets the best ppen/reply rate?

I am not a sales PRO, but I'm also not a newbie. Really just looking for a think-tank.
