How did we ever survive before email?

It’s funny to think back to how we use to work or communicate before email. At the time being in sales and business development I use to spend quite a bit of time on the phone or on the road. I have always had a very personalize approach to business and my relationship with clients and potential clients. Back before email and before I started AGM, I used to make so many phone calls that I actually got pimples on the side of my chin from the phone resting on it.

When I did start AGM a few years later I continued to make a lot of calls but the receptionist was replace with voice mail. How I hated voice mail back then. You could never speak to anyone and the chances that people would actually call you back were quite slim. I would come up with a very creative sales pitch for the goods I was selling at the time. As I worked in advertising and made a lot of cold calls.
