I did my first cold-call tonight! I was excited, but because I didn't know the outcome, kinda hesitant... as I've already found out, I do NOT like rejection...
It went great... my interviewee's voice mail was great to talk to.
I will have to try again in a few hours. Persistence is the key!
After talking to MANY aldermans' assistants over the past few days, one finally called me back! Of course, past my deadline and the story was already filed, but I totally felt like I had won a small battle with that. Also - I feel more legit now for some reason.
