In this episode, I talk with 2 guests:

  • Eric Iannello, Full Cycle AE (Account Executive) at Falkon

  • Nick Phillips, Senior SDR (Sales Development Representative) at People Data Labs

I bring together two friends with different perspectives on prospecting: Eric, a fan of cold calling, and Nick, a proponent of social selling.

We discuss the importance of time management in their respective approaches, reveal their techniques and strategies, and share recent successes from meetings they've booked.

We also dive into the biggest mistakes in prospecting and gather invaluable cold-calling tips.

Let's level up your SDR game!
