Seeing a lot of posts about SDRs and concern over CTR and response rate. After a while you need to think about changing the medium, not the messaging.

All about multi channel / medium. Everyone is different and have different things that resonate, or doesn’t. Hearing your name on a VM, seeing your name on email, then getting the personalized LinkedIn... the combo creates familiarity and hopefully leads to success. Or, gets you blocked :)

Agreed. Same old channels only get you so far. Change up the pattern. Do something different. Be memorable.

A VP told me that if I don't like our new WFH policy that I should find another firm.

Hi all, i am currently expecting, told in the office about the same. Initially i felt support from my team but lately i have been facing some issues with senior managers. Mandatory wfo when there is no such corporate policy (if you are on leave you are required to cover it later), work pressure, unnecessary feedback, irritable tone, "personal suggestion" to take early maternity.
This has started to build up mental and physical stress now.

Good morning! I work in Medicare sales and I’m just getting tired of sales because I have to change these elderly people on their insurance very frequently, and it’s frustrating most of the time.

I just want to be happy right now without taking a major pay cut leaving sales. I’m making 80k now, I don’t need to keep making that but a decent amount while still helping people. 🙏
