250+Outbound calls a day, sustained on a single-line dialer

Background

I have spent four years on the phone, and the numbers behind me were built one conversation at a time. At Fisher Investments I ran 250 outbound calls a day to high-net-worth prospects and helped onboard $37.9M in assets. At ARD Services I moved from calling into full acquisitions and sourced $8M+ in revenue in my first year, underwriting every deal myself in Excel.

What I bring is the whole cycle rather than one slice of it: I can open cold, qualify honestly, underwrite the economics, negotiate the terms, and carry a deal through to close without dropping it. I work well unsupervised, keep a CRM other people can actually read, and build my own tooling when the process is slower than it should be.
