Most Cold Calls SUCK!

Posted November 12, 2014

Next to emails, the phone is easily the noisiest channel when it comes to reaching out to a potential client!

And since they are overwhelmed with the high volume of calls . . .

They have assistants filtering them

Voicemails stopping them and if you’re lucky enough to get through . . .

You’re dealing with a person who will make a really quick judgment as to whether or not you’re worthy of being heard, let alone being granted an appointment.

Sadly, less than 2% of cold calls result in an appointment!

According to a report from Leap Job, only about 2% of all the calls you’re making result in the appointment. If you’re like most people, you think that the old “Sales is a numbers game” philosophy fixes that when all you’re really doing is more of something that was ineffective! That’s why I thought it might be time to ROCK your phone calls with a special 90 minute webinar!

Here’s what I’m going to share . . .

  • 7 “Warm Ups” to get you into your “zone” faster
  • 3 ways to conquer call reluctance
  • How to research a potential client better than you competitors
  • How to find “triggers” that will dramatically increase the recipient’s interest level
  • How to craft a more compelling message without using a script
  • How to cut off objections BEFORE they occur
  • 3 ways to handle objections when they do occur (and responses to typical objections)
  • How to ask for access to a higher level decision maker without insulting your contact
  • 4 types of emails that will set you apart

When?

Tuesday, December 9th at 11:30 am EST Time Out: If you can’t make it on that day and time, sign up anyway! We will record the webinar and send it out (slides and all) within 24 hours. This way you can truly go at your own pace!
