What To Do When Your Call Isn't Returned

Posted September 1, 2012

In this week’s podcast we tackle something that quite frankly, bothers the heck out of lots of sales people.

I’m talking about . . . The Call That Isn’t Returned and I’m also talking about its plural form . . .

The Calls That Aren’t Returned but . . .

It’s important that we all approach this from the same perspective so please allow me to provide a context for this.

I’m not talking about the call(s) that aren’t returned after you’ve met with someone . . .

I’m talking about the calls that aren’t returned from that person you are trying to get a damn appointment with.
