It absolutely works in B2B. Why would it not? Nothing prevents you from talking to potential customers about an idea you have with a slide deck.


And when are you supposed to do it? During office hours when you should be working on your regular job, or after 6pm when no business will be open for your sales call?


>During office hours when you should be working on your regular job,

Yes. Take a half day or duck out for a few hours.


Time zones are a thing. Unless all your customers will be in the same city you can always be in someone else’s “business hours”.

Comment below about taking a half day is good too. If you aren’t willing to use some PTO on this… how committed are you?


Yeah, during the day. Work from home and sneak in an hour or two here.

Building a company requires an incredible amount of hustle, if you can't figure out how to sneak in a couple of hours here and there to talk to people/pitch, sorry but that indicates a total lack of hustle.
