I'm competitive (sometimes). On the other hand, I'm shy. It's hard to show that I'm not perfect... But I agreed to take part in the Trellus (YC W22) x BetterContact March Madness Cold Call Competition (still doubtful I'll win it, haha 😅 ) They invited the top 9 cold callers to the same case study and asked them to call the same prospect. I'm representing women in sales here to compete with AMAZING SALES BOYS in cold-calling skills. Do you think I have any chance of being in Round 2? 🫢 ____ Here's the setup if you missed it: 9 elite callers. 3 knockout rounds. One winner. If you perform, you advance.
