Letโ€™s challenge an old industry myth: Cold calling isn't dead; your system is just outdated. In B2B sales, relying on luck, referrals, and guesswork will leave your pipeline empty. I act as your ๐…๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐‚๐ฒ๐œ๐ฅ๐ž ๐’๐š๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ƒ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ฅ๐จ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐‘๐ž๐ฉ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž (๐’๐ƒ๐‘). I don't just blast generic emails or blindly dial numbers. I build predictable and scalable outreach systems that consistently deliver high-quality meetings with decision-makers. By combining forensic lead generation with aggressive, math-driven cold calling, I bypass gatekeepers and get you in front of the people who write the checks. Whether you are a fast growing agency, a nearshore staffing firm, or a SaaS company, I build pipelines that convert. ๐Ÿš€ ๐Œ๐˜ ๐๐‘๐„๐ƒ๐ˆ๐‚๐“๐€๐๐‹๐„ ๐Ž๐”๐“๐‘๐„๐€๐‚๐‡ ๐’๐˜๐’๐“๐„๐Œ: 1๏ธโƒฃ ๐‹๐ž๐š๐ ๐†๐ž๐ง๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง & ๐ƒ๐š๐ญ๐š ๐„๐ง๐ซ๐ข๐œ๐ก๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ: ๐“๐š๐ซ๐ ๐ž๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฉ๐ž๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ : I build verified, high-intent lists of decision-makers matching your exact Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) using premium paid tools. ๐ƒ๐š๐ญ๐š ๐•๐ž๐ซ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ข๐œ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง: I ensure a <1% bounce rate by strictly verifying contact information, securing direct mobile dials, and valid corporate emails. 2๏ธโƒฃ ๐‡๐ข๐ ๐ก-๐•๐จ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ž ๐‚๐จ๐ฅ๐ ๐‚๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ : ๐€๐ ๐ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž ๐Ž๐ฎ๐ญ๐ซ๐ž๐š๐œ๐ก: Executing 100-150+ dials per day using predictive dialers to maximize talk time and pipeline velocity. ๐†๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ค๐ž๐ž๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ ๐๐š๐ฏ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง: Utilizing psychological pattern interrupts to bypass receptionists and speak directly to the C-Suite. ๐Ž๐›๐ฃ๐ž๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐‡๐š๐ง๐๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ : I specialize in overturning the "Big 3" brush-offs ("Send an email," "No budget," "Not interested") to keep prospects engaged. 3๏ธโƒฃ๐€๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐’๐ž๐ญ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐  & ๐’๐š๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ ๐„๐ง๐š๐›๐ฅ๐ž๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ: ๐’๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐œ๐ญ ๐๐ฎ๐š๐ฅ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ข๐œ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง: I filter leads using the BANT framework (Budget, Authority, Need, Timeline) so you only spend time talking to ready buyers. ๐‚๐š๐ฅ๐ž๐ง๐๐š๐ซ ๐Œ๐š๐ง๐š๐ ๐ž๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ: Booking highly qualified meetings directly into your calendar with detailed briefing notes for a seamless handoff. ๐Ž๐ฆ๐ง๐ข-๐‚๐ก๐š๐ง๐ง๐ž๐ฅ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐ : Combining cold calls with tailored cold email sequences and LinkedIn outreach for a complete "surround sound" strategy. ๐’๐Ž๐…๐“๐–๐€๐‘๐„ & ๐“๐„๐‚๐‡ ๐’๐“๐€๐‚๐Š: ๐…๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ž๐ช๐ฎ๐ข๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ž๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐ข๐ง๐ฌ๐ญ๐š๐ง๐ญ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐จ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฌ๐š๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ž๐œ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐ฆ. ๐ƒ๐ข๐š๐ฅ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ: Mojo Dialer, Kixie, CallTools, RingCentral, Aircall. ๐‚๐‘๐Œ ๐’๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐ฆ๐ฌ: HubSpot, GoHighLevel (GHL), Salesforce, Pipedrive. ๐’๐œ๐ก๐ž๐๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ : Calendly, Chili Piper. ๐Ÿ“Š ๐–๐‡๐˜ ๐‡๐ˆ๐‘๐„ ๐Œ๐„? ๐๐ซ๐ž๐๐ข๐œ๐ญ๐š๐›๐ฅ๐ž ๐Œ๐š๐ญ๐ก: I treat sales as a math equation: volume plus precision equals revenue.

Professional Profile Highly motivated and versatile professional with experience in Federal Executive Recruiting, customer success, appointment setting, office management, operations, logistics, and client relations. I have built my career around being dependable, adaptable, and able to step into different roles and industries while quickly learning what is needed to keep operations running efficiently. I am also a NAPS Certified Personnel Consultant (CPC), demonstrating my professional knowledge and commitment to ethical and effective recruiting practices. For the past four years, I have worked as a Federal Executive Recruiter, specializing in identifying and engaging high-level sales and technical professionals within the Federal technology and cybersecurity markets. My experience includes LinkedIn Recruiter, advanced candidate sourcing, Boolean search development, cold outreach, candidate screening, interview coordination, relationship management, and maintaining consistent communication throughout the hiring process. A significant part of my recruiting experience has involved working directly with Vice Presidents and senior leadership at large IT and technology companies to support their hiring efforts. I coordinate interviews between candidates and hiring teams, manage scheduling across multiple stakeholders, maintain communication throughout the interview process, assist with hiring coordination, and help keep candidates and leadership aligned from initial introduction through the final stages of the hiring process. This work requires professionalism, discretion, strong communication, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple searches and candidates simultaneously. During this same period, I have also worked in appointment setting and customer success for a well-known stock market trading education and training program. In this role, I communicate with prospective and existing customers, schedule appointments, conduct follow-up, support customer needs, maintain client relationships, and help provide a positive experience from initial contact through continued engagement. This position has strengthened my skills in customer service, sales support, relationship building, communication, and working with individuals with varying levels of knowledge and experience. My background also includes hands-on office management and operations experience in two very different service-based environments. During COVID, I managed office and administrative operations for a beverage delivery company in New York City. Working in a fast-paced delivery environment required coordinating orders and deliveries, communicating with customers, managing schedules, handling day-to-day administrative responsibilities, solving problems quickly, and helping keep operations organized during an unusually challenging time. I also handled office management and administrative operations for a lawn service in Florida that subcontracted with local landscaping companies. My responsibilities included coordinating schedules and work orders, communicating with contractors and customers, organizing service routes, tracking job completion, handling administrative tasks, and helping ensure work was completed accurately and on schedule. My experience has given me a diverse skill set and the ability to work effectively with Vice Presidents and senior leadership of large IT companies, executives, hiring managers, candidates, customers, contractors, sales professionals, and internal teams. I am experienced in coordinating interviews and hiring activities, managing multiple schedules and priorities, maintaining professional communication between candidates and decision-makers, and ensuring processes continue moving forward efficiently. I am comfortable working independently with little supervision, learning new systems quickly, managing competing priorities, solving problems, and taking ownership of responsibilities from beginning to completion. I bring a strong work ethic, self-motivation, honesty, integrity, and a genuine commitment to producing quality work in every position I take on. Core Skills - Federal Executive Recruiting - NAPS Certified Personnel Consultant (CPC) - Executive & VP-Level Relationship Management - Hiring Manager & Candidate Coordination - Interview Scheduling & Hiring Coordination - LinkedIn Recruiter & Advanced Candidate Sourcing - Boolean Search Development - Candidate Screening & Engagement - Cold Outreach & Follow-Up - Customer Success & Client Relations - Appointment Setting & Lead Generation - Sales Support & Customer Follow-Up - Office & Administrative Management - Operations & Logistics Coordination - Scheduling & Calendar Management - Contractor & Vendor Communication - Customer Service & Problem Resolution - Remote Work & Independent Management - Written & Verbal Communication - Organization & Time Management - Multitasking & Problem Solving - Adaptability & Quick Learning - Reliability
