Ariel Lee
Ariel Lee
LinkedIn Coach
After a long, successful, but draining career in the car business, I made a career shift in early 2020. Great timing to go into a business commonly built on face to face prospecting ability, as Covid completely shattered all of those options. I decided to dive headfirst into LinkedIn, sporting a whopping four hundred connections from my previous industry. I did things the icky way. First, cold connection requests, immediate sales spam upon connecting, couldn't figure out why no one wanted to talk to me?!
