first cold call, any advice?

Im a sixteen year old investor and i want to get into wholesaling. Of course i know not to rush into it without knowledge so i researched alot in the past four weeks. Ive been driving around my neighborhood and a found a house for sale. I thought about and planned what i was going to say then called two days later. I called around 11 which i know was late but still did it. I said Hello i saw your for sale sign in my neighborhood, am i catching you at a bad time? she said no any time is a good time. i then replied with i saw your property for sale and im a young real estate investor and im looking to do my first wholesale deal. and she was silent for a few seconds which is what messed me up and them scrambled my thoughts.. she then told me she understands what im doing and told me to go on i then told her i just want to find my first wholesale deal so i can get the knowledge and experience and that id be fine if there was a small or no wholesaling fee at the end of the deal... but then she asked if i was approved. I was confused and thought she meant my real estate licence or something prohibiting me from wholesaling but then she said for a mortgage. and i just went along with it because i thought she had no idea what i was talking about. she told me she was going to give me a call tomorrow. i also think it was because i only have on bar of connection in my room. Any thoughts or advice? everything helps!
