What do you feel to be the best techniques for initial cold calling.
Such as a solid script.
I don't mean tips per say, but a strong strategy of selling techniques and actual verbage.
By the way great site!
Answer
Thanks for the compliment Ryan.
OK, you need to understand that I am not a script person. Don't believe in them, have never used them.
Best techniques for cold calling ?
Do some qualifying before you call to make sure they MAY have a use for what you offer.
Your approach should be to find out if they want what you are offering, have a need or a problem you can solve.
Be courteous (offer to call back if you can hear they are busy).
Build rapport quickly using your voice.
In terms of building I would recommend my eBook on the same topic.
