Listen In As I Cold Call Businesses

24 replies
Hey Guys,

I notice that a lot of people have a fear
of cold calling businesses

I DON'T

Do I LOVE cold calling and jump for
joy at the thought of it?

Not really ...

However, I think that if you believe in what you
are selling it's not that hard. And it get easier when
you get in the groove

If I was to record some of my cold calls to businesses
so that you could listen would that be helpful to you?

If I get a few people that want it I'll do it and post a link
to the audio here


Jack

P.S. If you call it "Dialing for Dollars" Or Prospecting
vs "Cold Calling it makes it easier

    I'm sure there are plenty people here that could use some live recording, me included.
    I would love to see some One Call Close recordings too
    I hope you'll do this some day and share it to us
    Looking forward

            BE CAREFUL ... make sure you understand the 'one-party' and/or 'two-party' consent laws that may apply, you don't want to potentially open yourself to a law suit.

              Yeah I'm not worried about that ...

              Before I let anybody listen to the calls I'm gonna
              edit out Business names and personal names and
              phone numbers and email etc

              I actually did some calls this morning that I recorded

    great post. sure thing, cold calling is a never ending story and see if we can learn something new. I sell technology to call centers and you would think that call centers would appreciate the good old cold caller and take your call but let me tell you they dont. i would be interested to listen to it

    Definitely a great idea. I've always felt a lot more comfortable in person than making the sale on the phone, so it would be interesting for me to hear another example from someone who does the calling well.

  • I've heard a number of different cold call techniques and it never hurts to hear more. Practice makes perfect yes? Probably one of the most amazing ones was a 15 minute long script from a TV studio. Was just so quick and fluent. Post away please!

    All it takes is guts. Just pick up the phone and start dialing. What's the worst that can happen? You get hung up on.
