Module 3

Cold Calling Fellowship 

It’s time to learn by doing!  In this module, you’ll practice the day-to-day of an SDR and make some real-life cold calls.  After watching some CSC-specific cold calling material, we’ll get you set up to make some cold calls.  Don’t worry, it’s a lot easier than you think!  While making your calls, you’ll also record the results in your very own CRM.
