Tips For Cold-Calling

If you are in sales, you know how difficult cold-calling can be. This is especially true if you make cold calls on a consistent basis. Below are some tips that will help you up your cold-calling game.

Rehearse Prior To The Call

It always a good idea to prepare before making any cold calls. To do this, record yourself having a mock call with a prospective call. Listen to the recording and see if there are things you could improve upon. Be sure to use that constructive criticism on your next client call. 

Personalize Each Call

No one wants to get a call from someone who is just reading script. To prevent yourself from falling into this trap, personalize each call you make. Prospective clients will be more inclined to listen to when you tailor the call to their wants or needs. 

Maintain A Positive Tone Of Voice

When you are talking to a client on the phone, it is important to not sound nervous or arrogant. Instead of coming off too timid or too confident, maintain a positive tone of voice. People are more apt to warm up to someone who is enthusiastic about what they are selling.

If your traditional phone system is making it difficult to make or receive calls, it is time for an upgrade. A VoIP phone system can help your business stay on the cutting edge of technology. To learn more or to schedule a free estimate, give us a call at (877) 385-6657.
