This conversation is about the use case for cold calling and the digital alternative that data shows is a more efficient use of time with a higher return. 

We hear it all the time that social selling doesn’t work. These comments tend to come from sales professionals who tried to use social as a substitute for cold email outreach. We agree with them. That sales activity does not work.  However, that is NOT using a social profile and activity to create meetings. That is interrupting prospects and putting unsolicited messages in their social inbox.
