The Ten Commandments of Cold Calling: 1. Adjust your head
"Cold contacting" is not for everyone. But when done right, it brings results. We will advise you how to do it.
Cold calling is a sales method where a salesperson addresses potential customers who do not expect it in advance. Its aim is to establish contact, present a solution and usually arrange another meeting.
It is a discipline that requires not only strong nerves, but also a special set of abilities and skills. That is why we have prepared the “cold calling ten” for you, in which we specifically focus on the B2B segment. You can find it nicely put together on our blog .
So how do you make successful cold calls?
1. principle: Prepare your head
It is said that up to 90% of sports performance is made by the “head”, the psyche. The same applies to cold calling. So before you start calling:
- get to know the solution (product, service) you offer as best as possible
- specifically name its benefits – what it brings to customers
- remind yourself that rejection is part of your job—it doesn’t mean you’ve failed
But of course, the goal of a marketer is not to listen to rejection all day. So how do you increase your chances of success? More on that next time.
