Getting your Foot in the Door - 7 steps to successful cold-calling
The most common concern managers express about their salespeople is that they're not doing enough cold-calling. The reason can often be traced to the fact that salespeople are not properly trained on the how-to's of cold-calling. The result is they use ineffective approaches and frequently get slapped with rejection. So, instead of cold-calling, sales people occupy their time with 'safer' activities like visiting with current customers and order taking. With the huge potential for boosting market share sales through cold-calling, salespeople need these simple step-by-step techniques to dramatically enhance their success ratio.

Warm Up to Cold Calling
Cold calling: For many of us, the word "cold" is the key. Just the thought of picking up the phone sends a chill up our spines. Unfortunately, if we approach cold calling with an attitude of negativity, we’ll communicate that attitude to the prospect.

Sales Simplified - The First Step in Selling
Call Reluctance Strikes Everyone... men and women, young and old, new and experienced - reps in every selling field. It's as common as the common cold, but can be a lot more deadly - even killing sales careers.
MYTH: Cold calling is a good idea
In the "olden days" when I first started my business, over 95% of my sales came about through cold calling, which I had learnt to do really well when I worked as a sales recruitment specialist with Morgan & Banks. At M&B - and in my business - it was very clear that if I didn't bill anything I didn't earn anything. So I got on the phones and I prospected to people I didn't know - that is, cold calling. This was well and truly before the internet was in mainstream use and I had the privilege of learning how to cold call really well. But it is a FACT that in an essentially crowded market place of the 21st century, businesses require a series of "push" and "pull" prospecting strategies rather than one simplistic "push" approach to selling such as cold calling.
Cold calling is daunting. Got any tips?
Yes I do, in fact - Don't cold call! Not unless you are selling in a way that is radically different or fundamentally better than everyone else. Then maybe you stand a chance, but the odds are stacked heavily against you. I couldn't tell you the last time a cold caller cut-through and engaged me emotionally over the phone. In fact, I dare say I have never purchased something from a cold caller.

What approach should I take when cold calling?
I encourage people to cold-call by coming from a place of 'contribution' first; I call this approach 'buying-in'. In highly resistant sales executions, like cold-calling, you have to buy-in before you can successfully sell-in because the mass of cold-callers that have gone before you, have trained your customers to ignore you.
Why 3% Network Marketers Succeed and 97% Fail
Unfortunately, the hard cold fact today is that most network marketers are not successful or are not living up to their potential. We can certainly learn from those who succeed in this business and also learn important lessons from those people who fail. There is no magic pill here and there is no formula that is not the result of just plain common sense. However, sometimes common sense must be reminded and visualized. The following is a short list of why some network marketers just don’t make it, and why others are bound to do succeed.

Stop Cold Calling! Turn Your Prospects Into Clients
Sales should be fun, something you look forward to, and a skill that you are motivated to develop and enhance. For most people, it is something they dread and cold calling is a big reason. Why do people cold call? It always amazes me. It isn't fun, it is stressful and no one really ever feels good after it is over. If you want to turn your prospects into customers then stop cold calling!
