LIVE Event: The Great Sales Debate – Cold Calling Vs. Inbound Marketing

Sometimes the recipe for a good discussion is to simply pick an important topic, invite a few experienced people who disagree with each other, and then sit back and listen… so that’s exactly what we’re doing!

Join us for our latest live event series of 2022: The Great Sales Debate. Watch as we bring together some of the top sales and revenue leaders from around the world, to argue their cases in controversial sales and marketing disputes.

The third topic of the series is: Cold Calling Vs. Inbound Marketing – which is best for lead generation?

Everybody has an opinion, most have chosen a side. Our panellists have tried and tested in their field, they have their favourite and they’re ready to battle it out…

Fighting for team ‘cold calling’ we have:

Gerry Hill – Regional Vice President, EMEA at ConnectAndSell

And on team ‘inbound marketing’ we have:
Sam Dunning – Co-Owner & Sales Director at Web Choice
