David Walter is an author, speaker and sales trainer. His claim to fame came from a cold-calling hot streak, during which he set 15 appointments a day for six months straight. He later ran a prospecting call center, helping companies make millions. His book is a No. 1 best-seller on Amazon and he is a Contributor to Entrepreneur.
