Give these tips a shot…not all at once, but one here, one there.

Be patient… stick with my strategy. You’ll see positive results…especially with your cold call phone prospecting. 

OK, let’s get started.
  •  Never “Wing It”. Always use a script. It keeps repetitions, omissions and improper sequencing out of your pitch. They spell trouble when you prospect new customers.lead generation cold calling
  • Keep It Short. Make your introduction brief and to the point. How brief? Twenty to thirty seconds! That’s all you get. So be accurate, concise,and persuasive. Are you starting to see why you need a script?
  •  Relax. Dialog and delivery in movies, TV, and plays flows from carefully crafted scripts.

Yet these staged conversations sound completely natural and spontaneous.

  • Prospect Qualify. Good prospects…weak prospects?  Find out who’s who by asking specific questions. For example, “Does this interest you?” Or “When would you like me to recontact you”? Make prospect qualify questions part of every script!
  • Test,Test,Test —-but control your variables carefully. Be especially careful with key words or phrases. You might think they don’t matter, but they do! So once you find a winning script, stick with every word of it!
