Wow, it's been 6 months since I posted this. Since then I quit the cold calling job only to get another job making cold calls. My new business doesn't encourage cold calls but guess what -my second sales involved a cold call. -I've gotten really good at it and when I'm "in the mood" my percentage goes way up -like 30% or so.
Truthfully my clients were wanting what I had to offer and I represent a very prestigious company. They bought on the spot (also not encouraged at my company) and thanked ME for the business.
Truth is that as long as there are people who haven't heard of every product -there will still be telephone pitchers hawking their wares.
