Transcript

Hey man, so whatever happened to those hot leads I sent you? Um, what hot leads? What? Have you not called them? I call a lot of people there, champ. What hot leads you talking about? I sent them to you in your email last week. Oh, yeah. Those definitely weren't hot leads. They literally gave us their contact info. Yeah, to download an ebook. Exactly, yes. Yeah, that's not a hot lead. The ebook is about what we sell, okay? Okay. Do they know I'm gonna call them? Probably. Did they ask to be called? Not directly. Do you know the definition of a hot lead? Yes, well. It's a rhetorical question. Settle down, champ. Yes, I called them and by the way, they were ice cold. Not even near hot. But luckily for you, I'm the freaking king of the jungle, so I closed four of them. You're welcome. Oh, hey, Zack. Saw those new sales that came in. Gotta say, you're killing it. Keep it up, closer. Oh, hey, Chris. You seem upset. Really? Do I? Is it because I called you champ?
