    #20 - Season 2: Cold Calling Roulette: Sales Roleplays & Real Lessons

    Vincent and Simba are back with an unscripted session of W & Sales Live. In this episode, we reflect on real cold call lessons from the week—funny responses, permission-based openers, and why in-person meetings still win in 2025. Then we did a "sales roleplay roulette" wheel—pitching fake products like “Jargon Buster AI” and “CoffeeSync Pro” live on the spot in 2-minute sales calls. Expect laughs, awkward moments, and surprising takeaways that every SDR and AE will relate to. Whether you're grinding in tech sales or just want to improve your pitch game, this episode’s packed with insights and raw banter. Simba’s Cold Call Experiments: Using cheeky permission-based openers like “give me 30 seconds or tell me to go away.” Top 3 Real Responses: From laughter to polite rejection—how tone and script framing matter. Vincent’s Lessons: Going in-person beats digital outreach. One call can turn into two meetings (even when someone leaves the company). Always follow up via email—even after rejection.
