This past week, we began making a contact list for the people we would be interested in meeting with. We also talked about cold calling, cold emailing, and how to travel when the time comes. Doing these things in class has begun to prepare me for starting the actual contacting process.
As I created my list of people to contact, I got to explore many professional pages of people who are PAs on LinkedIn. I saw what schools many attended, what certifications they had, and what place of work they were at. As I was attempting to connect with these people I got the chance to tell them about what ISM is and that my mission is to learn from professionals. I enjoyed looking at their pages because it also gave me an opportunity to make my own page better.
Although I plan on continuing to broaden my contact list, I really enjoyed the opportunity to start researching professionals. I did not get the chance to start my cold call script, but I feel more confident doing that this coming week. Overall, I did feel successful this week, but the only issue I had was that LinkedIn did not allow me to connect with some people. I am looking forward to continuing my journey with confidence.
