  • By the end of this video you will know exactly how to cold call strangers and convince them to meet with you.
    Most people ruin their chances of setting the meeting by screwing up the cold call opening, not being able to overcome objections, or failing to deliver a compelling CTA.
    I’m going to give you my exact script to nail the first 30 seconds of cold call, overcome any cold call objection, & get the prospect so excited to meet with you, that they may even include their boss on the first meeting.

    i could be mistaken but im fairly certain somewhere in course careers we were taught to not ask how are you doing not being nit picky just genuinely carious if it is bad or not since it was used in the video example.

      As I stated, there is no single best line, you can use different openers to achieve deserved result. I like to use "how are you"

    When you siad FEAR, one that you didn't say and maybe Im the only one who has tgis is, FEAR that you will sit and make cold calls all day, for days on end and not make a dime, when you could be working at some hourly wage job, earning at least something. But, I don't know I guess if you don't make the calls youll definitely NOT make any money, or you can at least try and who knows, maybe you will make a good income thats more than what you wouldve made doing that hourly thing! Thanks for all your tips too!

  • @modernprofessionals9512

    I'll add this... I think the reason people hate/fear cold calling is because they don't know the number of times they will be told "no, fu, or worse" out of 100 actual live conversations... Expect it to be 40 give or take.. Out of 100 live conversations... Roughly 40... will be bodybags or a version of. Account for the 40 and tell yourself these 40 will not prevent you from becoming successful.

      if it's 40%, you're definitely doing something wrong. most people are nice in reality.

      @@TheNin0007 You misread pal… 40 will be a… NO… FU… OR WORSE. A VERSION of being body-bagged is an absolute and utter NO. Never did I say there would be 40 FU’s. BUT there is definitely going to be 40 no’s of some kind… Especially for inexperienced cold callers.
