Many of us business owners and salespeople are stuck in the first stage of grief: denial. But it’s true. Cold calling is ancient history. Most salespeople have already moved on to new approaches so it’s about time that everyone else did too.

What happened to the good old fashioned Cold Call?
A client or prospect’s time is precious. Between their meetings, countless emails and chasing business objectives, they have little inclination to listen to pushy sales pitches shoving unwanted information down your ear and cornering you with their boxing like sales skills to get you to accept a meeting date… “would you prefer 10am or 11am”.   Sound familiar?

The landscape has changed. No one cares to have their work flow interrupted or have their time wasted by irritating sales calls.  After all, if you wanted or needed what the pushy sales person had to offer, wouldn’t you have called them or have it already? The balance of power has shifted and the internet has changed how we buy and sell – FOREVER. There will be no going back.

So, whats next?
Without cold calling, how on earth are we to do the following?
● Win new business from new prospects
● Win more business from existing clients
● Win back clients that have disappeared

There’s a simple answer: We modernise. Power up that sales pitch of yours and get a major boost in business. Here’s how…
