Well, maybe not. Or, at least debatable. Or maybe highly debatable. The headline of a recent column on the well-trafficked web site declared “Cold Calling Is a Waste of Time,” followed by the aforementioned introduction. The accompanying photo? Wait, didn’t that guy work with Don Draper? The column itself is well written and, on its surface, well reasoned.
