When I anterior started selling second childhood ago, I was told the exact identical thing. My boss truly threw the Unethical Pages on my desk and said
"Go Excite 'Em Kid!" (I infant you not)
So I did what any 20 year decrepit teenager would do...I opened the bell manual to the A chop and started working my fashion complete those chicken pages.
Yikes. I "wised up" somewhere on all sides of F....because still though I was creation tons of calls and seeing innumerable "potential customers" I was broke, drove a 1978 Plymouth Caravelle that backfired and I was on straight commission. Not fun.
