Cold Call Tips

Cold Call Tips for Salespeople and Telemarketers: Sales calls are a tough way to do business. How can you better prepare yourself for making cold calls?

First-put together a game plan for calls-cold calls, warm calls and then follow-up calls.  Prepare a script with objections and possible rebuttals for hurdles you might encounter while making sales calls.

Second-Role play. Practice your pitch with a co-worker or someone available to listen to your pitch, tempo of your voice and rebuttals. If you do not have anyone available, talk to a mirror or even record your sales call for a true presentation of your voice.

Finally-Prepare yourself with a list of needs for the prospect. The best sales happen because you are presenting prospects with a product or service that they need and use on a regular basis.

A solid sales game plan sets the stage for productive and successful sales calls.
