Five Keys to Make Your Cold Calls Sizzle


Do you clam up on the telephone? An advertising rep called the other day to sell some ad space in a local news magazine. After I said, "Hello," there was nothing but monotone dialog until I interrupted him a minute later.

Your Ad -- Who Cares?


Junk mail. We all get it.

A lot of effort is put into getting new clients. We all know our client base will change.

The Art Of Cold Calling


I know, don't groan. You have to do them if you want to get properties and make money.

Forgive All Ebay Sins!


Over the years, I have been amazed at the "blinding" greed and reckless approach to commerce that some business owners have employed. Lying to customers, selling inferior merchandise, and not offering refunds, left a firestorm of irate customers in their wake.

(These days my response is to tell these callers to order Cold Calling College!) This question-asking strategy does not work. It does not work to qualify your prospect, and it does not work to set your prospect at ease.

Building Relationships


A conversation: The Salesperson: "I don't cold call-I want to build relationships." Wendy: "Huh?" Recently I've had a number of conversations with sales professionals and entrepreneurs who tell me they do not cold call because they want to build relationships with prospects.

Take the Contract with You


I learned something very interesting this week. Thankfully, what I learned was really at no one's expense.

Talking To A Prospect As If To A Friend


While working with a new coaching client, I asked to hear her sound bite. Everyone needs a good sound bite.

Your Voice is Your Instrument


On an introductory call, your voice is your instrument. During a face-to-face meeting, you have visual cues and body language available to add layers of meaning.
