- Are you having a hard timing remembering who to call and when? A simple and very effective way to organize your sales day is through the use of Microsoft Outlook. Try using the calendar menu on Outlook to insert reminders or callbacks and if you haven't used this feature then you need to start using this feature today. Once you start using Outlook it will change the way you organize your entire day.
- Mr. Cold Call™ recommends using ACT Software to log your calls and callbacks.
- Too many emails? Try saving your emails on the public drive of your shared computer system. Or, you can create folders to move emails into to avoid having a flood of emails in your inbox.
- Are you traveling from one office to another? Go to Target, Office Max or Office Depot to pick up a portable filing cabinet (with a handle).
- Record each call that you make each day on a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and insert columns like Date, Company and Notes.
- Save all outgoing emails to prospects so that you can reuse them with other prospects.
- Buy a Dry Erase Board and hang-it on the wall so that it's visible while your on the telephone. Use this board as a way to set goals, set reminders and you can even use it to write questions that you may forget to ask while speaking with your prospect on the telephone.
- Buy a mini-tape recorder for your car and use it to record what you need to do for the day.
- Each morning before you begin your day write down all the tasks and goals that you want to accomplish for the day and then cross them off when finished. This technique will also help to reduce any stress that you may have as well.
