Upcoming Workshops

Duration: 1 hour
Getting prospects to answer your sales call is no easy feat. Research shows it takes an average of 12+ touches across channels to earn a response, yet many sellers give up after just a few attempts, rely on only one channel, or avoid the phone entirely.
When persistence drops and there’s no real value behind the outreach, the phone will always feel like it “doesn’t work.” In this session, we’ll share practical ways to build recognition over time, give prospects a reason to engage, and stay visible without being pushy, so when you call, it feels more like “Finally, we connect!” not, “Who the heck are you?!”
In this session, we’ll cover:
- How to warm up outreach across email, LinkedIn, and phone
- How to use voicemail to build name recognition and credibility
- What to say (and not say) when leaving a message
- How repetition builds familiarity without being annoying
- How to lead with value to build trust
- How to feel more confident on the phone once prospects pick up
- Bonus: 5 ways to build phone confidence with your team
Whether you’re prospecting into new accounts or following up with warm leads, you’ll leave with realistic ideas you can use immediately to stay persistent, stand out for the right reasons, and get more prospects to answer your calls.

- Three questions both sides should ask to ask to ensure no time is wasted
- How to set realistic expectations with sales leaders The one easy thing sales leaders can do that often doubles ROI
- How to move from activity metrics to shared performance outcomes

Thursday, June 11th @ 1 pm ET
Duration: 20 minutes
Everyone wants sales growth, but most companies are overlooking the role with the biggest impact on whether teams actually scale: frontline managers. When managers are undertrained, inconsistent, or too busy saving deals to coach performance, growth stalls fast.
In this quick Sales Shot, Lauren Bailey will share five manager gaps that quietly block scale, what they look like inside real teams, and how sales and enablement leaders can spot and fix them before they cost you performance, retention, and revenue.
We’ll cover:
- The manager gaps that most often slow growth
- What these bottlenecks look like inside real teams
- Why reps, process, and tech can’t offset weak manager habits
- What leaders should fix first to create more consistency and scale
If your growth plans aren’t playing out the way you expected, your managers might be the reason. We’ll show you where to look and what to do about it.
Thursday, July 9th @ 1 pm ET
Duration: 45 minutes
You’ve only got a few seconds to capture a buyer’s attention before they tune out, brush you off, or hang up. In a world where every seller is using AI to crank out the same generic outreach, standing out is harder than ever.
This fast, tactical session will show you how to use AI to write better sales intros, cold call openers, and voicemail scripts that grab attention in the first 15 seconds and get prospects talking.
You’ll learn Factor 8’s SWIIFT methodology for creating sales call intros that focus on what buyers actually care about and make it easy for them to respond.
You’ll learn:
- How to use AI to write better sales intros and cold call openers
- The SWIIFT framework for creating sales call intros that get prospects talking
- The six value levers that make buyers actually listen
- Why closed questions work better than open questions in the first 30 seconds
- How to write voicemail scripts that increase callbacks
- The biggest mistakes sellers make in sales intros and how to avoid them
- How to make your AI-generated sales outreach sound human, not robotic
Whether you’re making your own prospecting calls, trying to book more meetings, or coaching a sales team, this session will give you a faster, smarter way to start every sales conversation.
