You’re definitely interrupting the person, and you sound like one of those pesky telemarketers who believe you need 10 to 12 touches to actually talk t

Why “Catching Up” Is a Myth

No More Cold Calling

Just because business is 24/7 doesn’t mean that you have to be, too. Prioritize your sales and business-development tactics, and you’ll find greater balance overall. “I’m catching up today.” How many times do we say we’re catching up? Let’s be real. Catching up is a fallacy, a myth, a wish, a hope, and plain unrealistic. Don’t get me wrong. We try. That’s why we work weekends and vacations, and stay glued to our Blackberry and iPhone.
