"I was calling a sales prospect the other day and he was very angered by my cold call. A few minutes into the call he asked to speak with my sales manager. I've never encountered this situation before and I really don't want to get into details about what I did because it may take up too much of your time. As a side note, I was very professional with the prospect and saw no reason why he was so unfriendly with me. It was even the first time we had called him, anyways, what would you have said or done?" Mr. Cold Call: Are you writing me like a book or something, did you want the number to my literary agent? "What's the difference between you and other cold calling and telemarketing trainers?" Mr. Cold Call: I'm sorry, I fell asleep for a minute, what was your question again?
"I really hate cold calling and I'm getting stressed out, what should I do?" Mr. Cold Call: Stop cold calling and get a new attitude. "My boss is telling me that I need to make cold calls, what should I do?" Mr. Cold Call: Visit www.dictionary.com and look up these two words "attitude" and "opportunity." "What's going on here? I read all this sales stuff, got the sales process down and I can't seem to reach anyone?" Mr. Cold Call: All you need to do is pretend like you are a magnet of personality and in turn you will inspire more interest.

"I've called this prospect twice and no response?" Mr. Cold Call: Keep it up because you sound like a very determined individual. "Do you think I should invest my money in real estate?" Mr. Cold Call: Do I look like Donald Trump? "Who do you think you are? You are a joke! Mr. Cold Call: So if you were alive in 1492 I guess that you would have been one of those that believed that the Earth was indeed flat, right?
"Why do you think people say that cold calling doesn't work?" Mr. Cold Call: Either they can't cold call and love excuses or they just don't have the personality for it! "Your techniques sound interesting, but I just could not see myself doing that! I just don't think I have the confidence for that type of stuff." Mr. Cold Call: Does your health insurance cover therapy? "How you differ from competitors do tell me now?"
