An essential part of cold calling. Calling an unknown person to sell to is a waste of time. Try to find the people you’re about to call on LI or company pages and get to know them a little. It should take about 45 seconds. Ideally, you should always have their name, position, and responsibility within their company. Anything above that, helping you in the call, is a plus. “Get ready for a prompt “Why are you calling me?”” Set up your call’s goal and have it in front of you as a reminder, should the discussion go off-topic, you can get back to it. Your aim shouldn’t be “get them in a meeting” necessarily, because, oftentimes, if you do, without proper qualification (needs, pain, and problems they’re solving), you might realize, within 10 minutes of meeting them, it’s a waste of time. Not so great, right?

Warm calling: calling based on a shown interest: potential customer downloaded a demo, requested pricing but also includes calls from already existing customers. “All of this gives you a rough idea of how the other party feels, how you should adjust yourself and react, and how far to go in questions.” Is cold calling ineffective/outdated?
