Converting Prospects Into Partners

Cold calls work better when you make real connections with people. Think about who you're calling and what they need. Use a phone number from their area to seem more like a neighbor.

If you know someone they know, mention that person's name. It helps them trust you more. Ask questions that let them talk and share their thoughts. Listen well to what they say.

Keep good notes about each person you call. Write down what you learn about their work and what they care about. This helps you have better talks with them later.

Break up your list of people into small groups. Talk to each group in a way that fits them best. The more you know about them, the better chance you have to work with them.
