I'm simply making the point that I'm willing to put in the effort required to be successful in this business. No, I don't know exactly what prospecting as an FA will be like and I ask questions in these forums because I would like to simply have un-sugar coated feedback in regard to the ups and downs of cold calling and cold walking. Believe it or not I'm posting rookie questions in the “Rookies and Trainees" newsgroup because I'm a rookie and trainee. <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
