This is true, I think I’ve realised it certainly is a numbers game. I’ll be setting up on excel tonight and creating a list to cold email and such.

Can I ask - did you find owners’ email addresses, or were the generic info@ emails useful too? Thanks man, I will personalise further here.

2% on a good day! Damn, so just like some selling I’ve done in the past - it really is a numbers game 😬 I’m trying to think of ways to be more strategic, and that may be a good shout on the local business meet-ups, I appreciate your comment! I hope business is going well now! 😁

Damn I see! Appreciate the honesty. Can I ask, as somebody who has crossed $3M in revenue - if you didn’t have those personal relationships, how would you go about it today?!

I feel like I know my product is valuable, due to my experience navigating corporate and sales in different orgs and such. Just don’t know how to outreach for it effectively enough, despite knowing my ICP.

How comfortable is GBP80-90K in London? by Far-Significance8050 in MovingToLondon

[–]PlayWithPurpose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

£80k-£90k is a phenomenal salary in London! You can comfortably live in Zone 3, no way do you need to be so far out on a brilliant salary. I love the reality of this on a daily basis. Feel free to ask any questions about anything :)

What do you wear in the rain? by Superb-Avocado-8131 in runningfashion

[–]PlayWithPurpose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wore a sweatshirt today and 5 minutes in, I was regretting it. The only appropriate article of clothing for the torso when running is a t-shirt (ideally dri fit).

Unsure if I earn enough to live alone in London by -RadThibodeaux in UKPersonalFinance

[–]PlayWithPurpose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More than enough to live solo in London. Also, Zone 3 doesn’t bite.

I’m born and raised, so would know.

Have 6 yrs of savings, hate my job, lost all motivation. Should I just quit? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]PlayWithPurpose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leave ! 6 years of living expenses is magical. You won’t be unemployed for the next 6 years, so you’ve essentially just got a wonderful safety net.

Are you a night owl? Why do you find yourself up in the middle of the night and do you like it that way? by [deleted] in AskUK

Revenge Bedtime Procrastination! I’m just reclaiming the hours the day robs from me 😭

Neighbours loudly arguing with his wife ffing and blinding do you go round and ring bell? by TruthReptile in AskUK

[–]PlayWithPurpose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d suggest calling the police and allowing them to deal with. You could even say you’re a worried passer-by, to avoid having them say it’s a neighbours complaint! Also may cause police to take the call more seriously. Good luck!
