The Art of Cold-Calling with Chris Cicconi

The Art of Cold-Calling with Chris Cicconi, Ep #423

Early in his career, Chris Cicconi believed cold-calling was a science. He came prepared with a script, knew everything about who he was talking to, and knew when to execute. But as his career has evolved, the process has become more of an art.

He shares how his process helps him book more meetings in this episode of Sales Reinvented.
