Key Quotes:
“Call reluctance isn't really a fear of the phone or rejection, it's really fear of self-promotion. And so, it’s what is holding people back from picking up the phone is also holding them back in a lot of other areas in their lives.” - Jennifer Standish
“If people can understand that they're calling to help a business, protect itself, and protect its employees, you almost have this moral responsibility to call as many people as possible.” - Jennifer Standish
“If you're going to cold call or you're going to have employees that are going to cold call, then you need to accept every cold call that comes to you. Because, a lot of this is karma and you can learn a lot about what you're doing, by taking calls.” - Jennifer Standish
