Business Cold Calling Is Not Only Alive…It’s Thriving When Done The Right Way
Developing high-level sales leads by business cold calling can help you get in-the-door…make your sale and get more customers.
The secret is making your calls with a personal touch and engaging your prospect with routine, real-time follow-up calls.
Yes, it’s a process.
But it brings you better qualified prospects with higher conversion rates than you can get with direct mail, email marketing or traditional telemarketing.
I start the business cold calling process with introductory cold calls that qualify each prospect to determine if your business is a good fit for what they need.
It’s here the the better qualified prospects are engaged for careful and methodical follow-up calls. This is where the all important relationship building process begins.
With each call I capture key details…including:
- Your prospect’s interest level in your goods or services.
- Identify their needs…learn about existing suppliers… and how YOU can pre-empt the competition.
- Ask the qualifying questions to make certain your offer matches their needs.
- Learn their “hot buttons” — what is it you can do for them that matters most.
