Make That Call

By Nic Haralambous1 min read

I hate making phone calls. I don’t really know why but I’ve always had a small issue making calls of any kind.

Whether it’s a doctors appointment or a cold call to a potential customer, same level of anxiety.

This year I’ve decided to make that call. No matter what it is I’m just going to make that call. I figure the more I do it, the more I’ll get used to doing it and eventually I’ll become good at it and actually be able to sell through cold calls.

Just in case you’re one of those people who love to make cold calls and close a deal and you think everyone’s the same, we’re not like you. Most of the people I know hate making phone calls of any kind. I think it’s actually getting worse with the advent and growth of instant messaging. Before text messaging the anxiety that I experienced just making plans with friends was unimaginable. Now a simple group text message wraps things up.

So when you’re wondering if you should, the answer is always to Make That Call.
