The only guidelines you need to boost your cold calling success rate
At the beginning of a venture, it is as important to actively show the world your new product and get your first paying customers as soon as possible.
In our work, we have supported many innovative products and services in their go2market phases and we noticed time and time again that cold calling is still the most effective way of selling in B2B innovations.
You need to go out there and tell people about your awesome solution and do customer acquisition – via phone, email, social media, events, fairs, flyers, web ads, on airplane banners, etc. Make your potential customers aware of your solution in any possible way you can imagine and afford it.
As you can probably imagine to do customer acquisition via phone means to do cold calling. It’s very effective and very affordable! What more can you wish for?
Here are some typical scenarios on what could happen while cold calling. We wrote down a little script about how these conversations could look like so that you can prepare and practice.
Disclaimer: There are countries that enforce some strict regulations when it comes to cold calling activities and the conditions in which they can be done. We advise you to check your local regulations before you start your first sales activities.
