Cold Calling

(KOHLD KAWL-ing)

An anxiety-inducing sales practice that subjects the caller to repeated emotional trauma, including sweaty palms, racing heartbeats, and existential dread. This often culminates in swift rejection or, worse, voicemail oblivion.

"Each morning, Tim psyched himself up for another brutal round of cold calling, reminding himself that rejection is just character development disguised as emotional torture."

Spray and Pray

Circle Back

A verbal boomerang typically leveraged in unnecessary meetings. It's most frequently employed when there is a reluctance to make a decision, further discussion is required in a more private setting, or when a team member simply has no clue what's going on but needs to appear like they do.

"Let's circle back on the strategic direction at a later date once we've had a chance to regroup internally to ensure we're aligned."

Blue Sky Thinking

(BLOO SKYE THING-king)

A form of irreverent brainstorming often engaged in the face of extreme budget limitations or when it's suspected the client has been speaking with other partners.
