A short motivational YouTube narrative by Steven Burch emphasizing persistence and creativity in sales. The speaker recounts repeatedly calling a prospect (Brenda Fuentes) until she answered on the 37th call (7th week), closing a $50,000 deal and earning a $10,000 commission, using the anecdote to advise being persistent and creative in business.
So I called her every day. Left voicemail every. Every week. Some of my colleagues made fun of me for doing that. Again, it was being different. 7th week phone call, number 37. Guess who picked up the phone? Brenda Fuentes picked up the phone. She said, are you ever going to stop calling me and leaving me those crazy voicemails? I am now. Brenda Fuentes. Let's talk. Closed her for $50,000. I got a $10,000 commission check, and I was off to the races. So the story. Be persistent and be creative.
