Episode notes

Recently, I did a talk at the GrowthMentor Summit, which was a virtual summit, that included 50 of some of the world’s best growth leaders. This was such an amazing event. There were thousands of attendees from all over the world, that had free access to some incredible insights from some very talented people. My talk was on outbound sales. It was called "How to get your first 500 paying clients on a bootstrapped budget". I spoke about how I single-handedly got my first 500 paying clients through cold-calling and outbound sales. I broke down the talk in 3 sections: 1. The 6 CRITERIA needed to get your first 500 clients. 2. The 3 KEY ELEMENTS you need to make sure you succeed. 3. The 9 STEP PLAYBOOK I used to get my first 500 clients. So this is the audio version obviously, if you want to see the actual video with the slides, I’m dropping the link in the show notes.
