I don't see the problem with cold calling people at 6am. If anything, he should have called earlier. I like to hit people with a brisk 4am cold call. When they answer, I just start breathing heavily in the phone and tell them to walk outside naked. If they don't oblige, then my predator drone is on standby. Works every time

Spacing between sentences or complete ideas are taught to be more attractive formatting in copy write teachings. I agree, instead of a big block of the whole story. But it doesn't need to be used for every SINGLE SENTENCE

It makes people more likely to read it. It spaces out the text to make it look like less to read and easier to consume. Some people definitely over do it though.

How does it look?ย
When I do this?
Do you think my parents loved me as a child?
Or was I left out in the cold alone?
I should probably go get therapy, instead of posting on the internet to strangers?
But if you did, own it?
Thoughts?ย

Seems plausible.
Also definitely ways to figure out the difference between a DC and Washington state phone number

Well..no joke I did accidentally do this once and still got a demo booked. I sent him a Starbucks gift card with a note saying, โSorry to wake you up so early. Hereโs something to help keep you up. Sincerely, the jerk from XXXXXโ
He called me back and asked to know more. Super nice dude who ended up buying. I still feel bad to this day about it lol

Thereโs no way that call went THAT well. Not the worst trick to try but I doubt that scored that rep a demo.

I love all the โsales coachesโ out there who were fired from the only real sales gig they ever had where they were a complete order taker rather than actually generating business. Then after theyโre fired they think, โfuck- Iโm DEFINITELY an expert in sales nowโ and start posting complete fabrications like this one. Makes me wanna pull my hair out before vomiting on his shoes.
