Diary of a Telemarketer

14th January 2014

It’s been a whole year now since my first experience of telemarketing, here at Business Life and yes I’m still here.

I remember my first day well phoning numbers praying that no one would answer, dreading having to actually talk to some one. Mad I know but I’d never done it before and really didn’t know an awful lot about business coaching. After the first few days I realised that I had to get a grip, Man Up! They are just human beings after all, what’s the worst that could happen….hang up on me…and yes that has happened a couple of times.

Thankfully I have had a very supportive team who have given me the confidence I needed. I remember them telling me “don’t worry you’ll get it in time” and they could see the potential as they would often tell me how good I am on the phone.

And they were right suddenly I got it! I made my first sale, I was over the moon and realised I could do it. Now I take it in my stride, there are good days and not so good days but I don’t let the not so good days bother me, it’s simply the way it goes.

I love it, I get to chat to some very pleasant, interesting people, and hopefully due to my initial contact with potential clients there are more successful businesses out there.
