The Summer Struggle of SDRs: A Comedy in Three Acts ☀️ Ah, summer. For most, it's a time for beaches, BBQs, and bliss. For SDRs? It's a time for voicemail greetings and OOO auto-replies. 😅 Act 1: The Call Attempt You: "Hi, this is [Your Name] from [Company]!" Prospect’s Voicemail: "Hi, I'm sipping mojitos in Maui, leave a message!" Act 2: The Email Campaign You: Crafts perfect email Auto-Reply: "I'm out of the office enjoying my summer. Will respond when my tan fades." Act 3: The LinkedIn Outreach You: Sends connection request Prospect: Posts beach selfie instead Having survived those sunny months, I can say: hang in there, SDRs! Keep dialing, keep smiling, and don't forget the sunscreen. September is just around the corner. 🌞 #SDRLife #NeverAgain #SummerStruggles #SalesComedy #SalesManager

🌟 When Client Calls Turn into Comedy Shows! 😄📞 Just had a client call that felt like a scene straight out of a sitcom! 🎬 Picture this: me, trying to deliver my pitch with all the confidence in the world, only to realize I've accidentally muted myself the entire time! 🤦♂️ Cue the frantic unmute button smashing and the awkward apologies...classic! But hey, in the world of sales, you've gotta learn to roll with the punches, right? 😅 Sometimes, the best moments come from the unexpected twists and turns of client calls. Like that time when I unknowingly had my cat join the call and steal the spotlight with some impromptu meowing! 🐱 So here's to the client calls that keep us on our toes, the mishaps that make us laugh, and the unforgettable moments that remind us not to take ourselves too seriously. Because in the end, it's not just about closing deals—it's about creating connections, sharing laughs, and making memories along the way! 🚀💼 #SalesLife #ClientCallsGoneWild #RollWithThePunches 😄📞

Four Superbowl party etiquette tips if you are a marketer who geeks-out on the commercials…like me! 1.     Don’t demand that the room be silent when the commercials air by jumping on to furniture and waving your arms. 2.     Don’t push other part-goes out of the way to see the TV, especially the guy with the over-sized helping of nachos and cheese. 3.     Don’t cheer at the end of a commercial no matter how good it is. 4. This last one's for everyone...don't run around the room with the football, its a table ornament.

Pig butchery Anyone who watches John Oliver’s Last Week Tonight will be aware of “pig butchery” as one of the latest ways of trying to scam people out of money. There was a whole episode devoted to it recently which I tragically can’t find on YouTube. Google “pig butchery scam” if you need an explanation. It was therefore with interest that I received this message through LinkedIn only the day after watching the programme. It was not the first of these that I have received but I had not realised that they were part of a coordinated scam. I am sure that I am not the only person who is receiving these messages so please be aware and just delete them.     #sales #business #technology

We get so many angry calls from people about our direct mail, it's hilarious. 😅 I started prepping comeback lines like asking if they call when a window salesman sends them mail, and it always leads to chaos. It's like a comedy show every time someone calls to complain about our mail. 🤣 #nicepriceproperties #directmail #marketingstrategy #responsehandling #communicationskills #realestateleads

Forget Wolf of Wall Street. Some of the best Sales advice you'll ever hear can be found in the comedy classic The 40 Year Old Virgin. Getting into the habit of answering questions with questions is a vital skill if you want to control a conversation. As soon as you start answering questions a prospect throws at you, you're fighting an uphill battle. P.S. I need a new watchlist - comment below your favourite comedy movie/standup special. #sales

Who doesn't love a good Dad joke right before Father's Day? Check out some Friday funnies and if you know of a good dad joke, add it to the comments!

It’s Friday l want to share something important in an fun, unusual way. Warning NSFW Do you sometimes doubt that you’ll be able to make impact or change you want to see in the world? Even though people tell me how important my work developing Ombuds programs is, there’s so much resistance that I doubt myself. What do I have to do to help companies realize how many problems an Ombuds program can help them solve and how beneficial it is to the health of their company? I was talking about this with a friend who is also feeling doubtful when I remembered this: PEN!S PUPPETRY Yup, this was a real Broadway show. Men on stage transformed their, uh, junk into shapes like a hamburger. 🍔 It was so popular there was actually a touring company! Now, if that could exist in the world, be popular and be lucrative, so can whatever it is you want to bring as a solution to the world’s problems. You have so much more value than that! Never give up!
