Most Dials Made w/o a Pickup?

I think for one day my record is 85+ calls and not one soul answered.


I've gone 4 days in a row without a pick up on an avg of 55ish calls a day.


Wbu?

When I was an SDR I think my record was like 110 calls and five pickups or something pathetic like that.

Not sure how many I've made without a pickup, most calls I've ever made in a day was 186 obviously most were no answer but I don't remember not speaking with someone that day

Thanks, was in my early days as an SDR. Things got pretty competitive with a few coworkers. I was naive enough to think the company would see the effort and extra time I put into my job and show their appreciation

As an SDR I'd make around 60-65 calls avg and most of the calls were unanswered.. it disheartened me many a times

i think mine was during the holidays, which I had to work for some stupid corporate reason, and I'd call like 100+ a day  fully knowing I won't get and answer.

Dang, where are you sourcing leads? One company I worked for had just TERRIBLE lead lists that one employee had stolen from a competitor when they made the jump (yes - red flag) and ironically it was a mostly dead list of leads that were 6 years old and half the time if you called the business no longer existed.

this was back in the early days of my still young SDR career. admittedly, my prospecting wasn't the best but also, I was going after BIG ass (Fortune 50) cos. that we had been bombarding for several years (along with every other vendor, I presume). So chalk it up to bad prospecting and dead numbers that are probably called 75 times a day.

Not without a pickup, but I have made 500 dials and been hung up on about 350x in a single day.
.
Many, many, many a day at 300+ dials, but only one day was ever that bad.

Anyone else feel like 100 calls a day is robotic and inefficient?
