What part of the country do you find most open to meetings and to taking cold calls?

What part of the country can you call into and find the most polite people who will take your call and hear what you have to say? In my experience people on the East and West Coast have been way more friendly than Central and Mountain time.

West coast seems to pick up the most and not scream about spam laws or some shit. Central US is an interesting place to sell to.

West Coasters are pretty chill, central Canada is decent (I vibe with Albertans,) East Coast is a mixed bag.

Honestly, I've had luck everywhere but I think without question, folks in the Mountain zone are the rudest. The Dakotas, Idaho, Utah and Wyoming have been some of the rudest people I've encountered.

I've weirdly had a lot of luck in Texas, Florida and Tennessee!

Yeah I can see that, I covered Texas for a bit and they were nice, but never bought anything.

Interesting! I would've guessed Cyber Security sold like guns there.

That is what you would think, but no. Very legacy mindset, very resistant to change and a general distrust for any cloud tech.

West Coast and South are always great. Northeast people are bunch of assholes, especially New York

Well not from the US and A, but the rural parts are more open to cold calls imo.

As a Midwesterner myself. I will say usually Midwesterners are harder to get in contact with but from experience tend to be the most loyal customers if you break into them
