Cold calls are one of the primary ways that freight brokers and freight agents sell to try to gain new business with shippers.
Our teammate, Drew Brendli, was a freight broker before he joined our team at Salesdash.
He made 11,000 cold calls. There's a lot of lessons you learn along the way from making 11,000 cold calls, and you get a lot better at your craft when you do.
Drew made a post on LinkedIn of 5 tips and it gained over 300 reactions and over 75,000 impressions, so we felt it was appropriate to have him talk through it on YouTube.
We hope you take one thing away from this video. Keep dialing.
