📈 SalesA focused community: Sales for people who want results, not another feed
There is significant interest in the sales community, particularly around the topic of "cold calling," which has 10,000 monthly searches in the US and 35,000 worldwide. Despite this interest, pricing in this category is mostly unpublished, with only 2 of the 18 communities providing a monthly price, and none of those being free or under $25. Your course-led format combined with community engagement can fill a gap, as anyone who states a price plainly is already unusual. With under 5 hours a week to dedicate, you can effectively engage a fraction of your existing audience.
