Sales: Tips for Cold Calling
| |
| Wwhen you Cold Call - whilst your goal is to create life-long customers, the purpose of a Cold Call is to take Suspects to Qualified Prospects. What I mean, is that when you Cold Call on someone, you SUSPECT they could use what you're selling, but you're not certain. After you've called on them and discussed what your product can do, you will know if the Suspect is really a fit for your product or not. Once you have a qualified prospect, you then focus on converting them to a customer, and then to a life long customer.

Louis L'Amour, Albert Einstein, Lifelong Learning and Success
| |
| Successful people are outstanding performers. Outstanding performers are lifelong learners. Lifelong learning is really important to creating the successful life and career you want and deserve.
