Episode 2 - Turning the heat up on cold prospecting with Samantha McKenna

On today’s show we sit down to talk cold prospecting with Samantha McKenna. She is the senior sales director for ON24 and she’s a huge proponent of the “show me you know me” method of social selling. During our conversation she goes over the strategy and how it has helped her break sales records. We also talk a little bit about the Ben Affleck character in the movie Boiler Room. Enjoy!
