What happens when a math major turned cold-caller gets frustrated with broken sales systems? He builds a better one, then builds a company around it.

In this episode of Sales Talk for CEOs, Alice Heiman sits down with Ryan Reisert, the co- founder of Outbound Operators and CallBlitz, to trace his journey from burned-out rep to process-driven founder.
