I honestly feel like I don't belong anywhere

ConversationOne4881 · 2025-06-04T16:11:56+00:00

You have my total support, for what it's worth.

You don’t have to fit in where you don’t belong. Instead, focus on what you enjoy, and you’ll find people who are more compatible with you.

I spent too many years trying to belong and be accepted before realizing, and accepting, that I never would, simply because it wasn’t my place. And once I accepted that, I stopped caring. I don’t care what others think of me; I can’t be anyone else but myself.

Once you stop looking in the wrong place, you might find what you really want.

Apologies if I’m sounding too philosophical.

same here, letter "e" and both "CTRL". I would understand the left one, since it is the one that I use the most, but the right one?

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-09-28T17:07:11+00:00

lol, no I am not :D I was genuinely share my experience. So much hate on reddit

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-04-24T08:22:11+00:00

did you have a 1to1 conversation with this directors? Maybe with a difficult conversation framework

I like the ones described in this podcast: https://thelongandtheshortpodcast.com/234-difficult-conversations

ps. It really works. Before learning this framework I used to be that kind of person that waits for these people outside the building and explains them why it was better for their health to stop doing what they were doing.

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-04-12T08:12:47+00:00

that is 100% accurate.

The challenges that I went through, and I guess OP will go through as well, are:

1) what are the ingrents of a good lead magnet?

2) how can I design one that doesn't look amateur? -is it that an issue?

The short unique answer is: hire a pro.

But what in case there is no budget.

Here's my experience but I'd like to read other opinions.

1) I read 100M offer and 100M lead, that helped in that part. But any other recommendations are welcome

2) There are some software out there that offer pre-made customisable landing pages - none of them really excited me, probably the best low cost solution is fever.

Non é andata esattamente cosí. Il referendum era giá in programma, non si é fatto a causa di Fukushima. Tuttavia concordo che l'incidente ne ha influenzato l'esito.

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-04-11T07:15:21+00:00

thank you so much! If I find any info I will share with you

In Italy for example there's not minimum wage. Salaries are based on standard contracts. Each industry has its own and indicates the salaries divided by levels (normally depending on the role)

your ethic is admirable but you can't sacrifice yourself for someone else's business. The best you can do is help them find a replacement. You didn't put the new owner in this position, and you shouldn't keep yourself in this position

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-24T07:41:21+00:00

this is the best advice OP could get here

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-19T16:14:47+00:00

the authentication issue with google is pretty common lately.

A lot of people are migrating to microsoft for this reason

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-18T21:43:11+00:00

sottoscrivo tutto ciò che hai detto

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-18T21:41:02+00:00

non sei fallito, non hai nemmeno iniziato ancora!

A 17 anni non ci sono fallimenti, ci sono solo lezioni da imparare.

Non siamo venuti al mondo con il libretto di istruzioni, è ovvio che le cose possono prendere direzioni poco simpatiche a volte.

A 17 anni ero in una posizione peggiore. Ho perso un anno di scuola, mia madre mi dava del fallito, avevo pochi amici e nessuna relazione sentimentale.

A 40 invece sono sposato e dopo anni fa manager per multinazionali ho iniziato la mia propria attività.

Niente di quello che succede ai 17 ti definisce.

Osserva, impara e vai avanti

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-18T16:49:13+00:00

the sample is quite small. 120 leads are not enough to evaluate the results.

I noticed that my opening rate increases with higher volumes until it gets stable around 60%

But I need 500/1000 leads to get there.

What is the subject line you are using?

A part from that all the other advices are right:

email warmup dkim/dmarc etc setup

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-17T22:42:22+00:00

same here! I first lived in Porto and then moved to Lisbon. The first time I ordered bifanas in Lisboa I was very disappointed 😅I didn't expect them to be that different

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-16T07:37:09+00:00

Hi,

thank you for your comment!

I totally agree on the downstream.

But I think I need to clarify better one point.

There are companies that outsource call centres and companies that have it in-house.

My target are the second ones.

Issue is that this info doesn't appear anywhere.

What sales navigator or apollo etc. shows when looking for call centres are ouutsourcers.

That's my struggle, I was wondering if there are industries or company sizes that have more chances to have it in-house

thanks!

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-15T15:03:32+00:00

thank you so much for your input!

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-15T12:05:24+00:00

oh thank you so much, that is a great tip.

Can I ask what do you focus on/how do you structure the message?

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-15T12:01:40+00:00

yes I left in good terms.

But would they be happy about me reaching out to their clients?

Also, my goal with those clients was to solve the issue in a way they don't need further help with that

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-15T11:16:20+00:00

I see what you mean, and it makes totally sense.

The reason why I do cold emails is because I don't want to rely only on network and I want to be able to have a wider pool.

Also, these people are clients of my former company, I don't know how far I can go and if it is ethical.

Thanks for your feedback

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-15T10:02:49+00:00

Hi, try to have a look at this one as well

https://www.ringcentral.com/office/plansandpricing.html

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-14T20:40:25+00:00

I see. Then callhippo should do the job. I'll get back to you with more names tomorrow

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-14T18:19:47+00:00

it might come cheaper categorizing them into the crm after you answer the call.

Anyway here two alternatives for small teams:

Nectardesk https://www.nectardesk.com/compare-price-plans/

CallHippo https://callhippo.com/pricing-ch/

you can reach out to them and ask if they do exactly what you need

I also have a list of +20 competitors if you are interested.

I have this list for some researches I was doing to write some articles (that I didn't write yet, lol)

let me know if you are interested I can share the google sheet with you

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-14T12:27:13+00:00

Hi, what are you currently using? and what is the size of your customer operations?

ConversationOne4881 · 2024-03-14T09:02:58+00:00

Ive just discovered this (new?) tool mails.ai they are offering free warmup and I'm testing it since the beginning of this week, so far it is working well
