Decision-Makers: You - and every other sales professional on the planet. Pundits say that cold calling is dead, it’s ‘old-fashioned’ and it doesn’t work in today’s business environment. Besides, everyone hates telemarketers, right? Yet it’s never been more difficult to “get in the door” to see prospects. Decision-makers are busier than ever and budgets are tighter then ever. Prospects are guarded by gatekeepers who answer their phones and screen their mail. Firewalls and Spam filters trap your emails. If your emails do get through they may very well be deleted unread by gatekeepers or the prospects themselves. Status quo reigns. Some sales professionals, however, are able to consistently get in front of prospects who want and need and buy their products or services. And some prospectors have consistently been able to reach prospects and gain customers even in today’s business environment. You can be one of them.
"Our total sales in 2006 increased by 32% over sales for 2005. Then, in 2007 our total sales to date have increased by 29% over the 2006 numbers. We couldn’t have done it without you.” The pundits are right--up to a point. Some cold calling approaches will not work. Here are a few of the old, tired approaches that will not work:
These approaches are dead. And good riddance. Cold calling today is direct, targeted and above all it’s a communication skill. And most importantly, it works. In today’s business environment, however, it is imperative to understand the rules, what has changed, what works today and what will simply waste your time. "In the four years I have been the CEO of ParishPay, we rarely have had someone impact our organization and improve our results as you have. Last year we had three inside sales staff members and this year we have two. Our results this year were 128 appointments set by phone in 3 months, as opposed to 45 last year. If anyone can do math, they can see the value of your input in a phone-based sales operation.” Join Wendy Weiss, The Queen of Cold Calling, for this important teleconference, Cold Calling in the 21st Century--The New Rules where she will reveal the formula you need to successfully reach decision-makers directly, get your foot in the door and gain new customers. You will learn how to:
“[Wendy] …totally revolutionized the way I speak with prospects. …I needed a new elevator speech and the information from the call helped me to create it. Last evening, I went to a networking event where I used my new elevator speech for the first time. What usually happens for me at an event like this is that I see people’s eyes glaze over and I end up going home frustrated with no leads. Last night, …people actually listened to what I had to say and I went home with four strong leads, one of which has already turned into a request for a proposal.” By the end of this teleconference you'll be able to:
“I recently called six companies and was able to get four solid introductory appointments on my calendar with minimal effort! If I can keep up this pace I can make more money in less time." When Is the Teleconference? Date: July 29, 2008 Time: 4PM Eastern Where: Your home or office What If I Can’t Attend? No problem. We are recording the call and all participants will receive the audio link to download and save. So you see, there’s really no reason not to: “I was able to reduce the amount of objections and increase the appointment closing ratio... yesterday I was able to secure three appointments in one hour by practicing your methods.” What Does This Cost? What is the value of consistently and effortlessly having productive selling conversations with qualified prospects? What is the value of getting in the door when your competition cannot? Your investment for Cold Calling in the 21st Century - The New Rules is a mere $57. The impact? Priceless. “My new sales were up 23% this past year, and I am extremely happy with the outcome. You have made me feel more confident about myself and my ability to sell...”
