Cold outreach. The act of reaching to people that do not know who you are, to sell your product or services. I personally find the idea terrifying. But it seems like this is a core part of business development. As the early or sole person working on a product, it often falls on you to sell the product directly to get your early revenue.
One of our members is killing it on the cold calls. He is selling a b2b product that institutions like schools seem to love using. What helps him get through the cold calling is the fact that he is seeing some conversion on this outreach. Some percentage of the calls lead to paying customers.
