Soul-draining experience
|
|
There are no Pros for this position.
|
As someone who's dipped their toes into the icy waters of cold calling, I can tell you it's a soul-draining experience akin to being trapped in a never-ending loop of monotony and rejection.
Cold calling turns you into a money-hungry automaton, dialing numbers with robotic precision, reciting scripts like a broken record, all in the pursuit of squeezing every last penny out of unsuspecting souls, whether they need what you're selling or not.
Imagine being the unwelcome guest at a never-ending dinner party where no one wants to hear what you have to say. That's cold calling in a nutshell. You're interrupting people's lives, invading their privacy, all in the name of pushing products or services they may not even want or need.
It's a numbers game, they say. Dial enough numbers, and eventually, you'll strike gold. But at what cost? Your humanity? Your sanity? Cold calling forces you to detach yourself from the empathy that makes you human, turning you into a relentless sales machine, hell-bent on hitting quotas and targets, no matter the collateral damage to your own conscience.
Sure, some might argue that cold calling builds resilience and sharpens your sales skills. But at what point do we draw the line between ambition and exploitation? When do we stop sacrificing our morals on the altar of corporate profit margins?
In conclusion, cold calling is a soul-sucking endeavor that preys on the vulnerability of both the caller and the callee. It's time we reevaluate our approach to sales and communication, focusing on building genuine connections and offering value rather than resorting to intrusive tactics that leave both parties feeling empty and used.

A fantastic company who "gets it"
|
|
The focus on remote work is so appreciated in our new world, post 2020. My work-life integration is balanced, and I feel the freedom to run my desk and provide excellent customer stewardship, while feeling like my life doesn't suffer.
|
Of course it stinks not having the in-office culture where I can swing my chair over to a co-workers to ask questions or build community, but the pros outweigh the cons.

Break down walls between Sales and Operations. We're on the same team, but sometimes, feels like we're pitted against each other.

$125k my first calendar year.

It’s not easy money. You will work very hard, laugh, and even cry with your lovable teammates, and face your limitations. If you are tech savvy, sales savvy, disciplined, and happen to be the life of the party, you may love it. Absolutely love my manager and plan to stay til retirement. Started at 53yrs old!
|
Learning curve is challenging, micro expectations may bug you unless you are so strong you don’t even notice you already excel beyond them.
