Best threads/posts by Jason Kanigan, Claude Whitacre, etc.?
I've been struggling getting my offline business off the ground, but that's mainly (due to lack of confidence/balls) because I haven't consistently prospected/followed-up, sticking to one method/plan.
I've been chopping and changing, from one method to the next, as a way to put off actually doing the work, and acting like I have a pair. But now I need to starting making money, or I'm in trouble...
So I have my product (websites/mobile as front end), and prospecting/pitching method (cold calling/walking in and showing mock-ups to businesses paying for advertising), now I need to consistently do this, because I know I'll get feedback/data from actually following this through on a daily/weekly basis.
I track everything. I'm not afraid of speaking to people. I have a structured weekly schedule that makes time for all the above. I just need to do the work.
I've unsubscribed from multiple WSO lists, so I stop getting pitched the latest shiny new method.
Now all I need is to improve is my sales chops, and from looking through the forum the last few days, for sales-related threads, it seems I am in good company. I have found threads/posts from Jason Kanigan and Claude Whitacre particularly insightful and useful. I've also read that kenmichaels, misterme and JD are also go-to gents regarding anything sales.
I know that my success will be determined by the consistency/persistency of my prospecting/following-up, and the honing of my sales skills. So if anyone has any saved/bookmarked threads/posts by the afore-mentioned gentlemen (and anyone else, for that matter), I'd greatly appreciate your sharing those links. I'll be going through the forum anyway to find their posts more as time goes on, but I thought it doesn't hurt to ask if anyone has any already saved/recommended.
Thanks in advance, and thanks to all the above for your wisdom generously shared on this forum.
