Overcoming Voicemail Challenges
Introduction
In the world of sales, cold calling is an inevitable part of your routine. Whether it's weekly or even daily, reaching out to potential leads is essential for success.
The Reality of Cold Calling
Cold calling often lacks excitement and requires persistence to achieve any meaningful results. I remember my days as a loan officer at a mortgage company, where I dedicated two and a half hours each night, Monday through Friday, to make my cold calls.
My target was to complete at least three applications each evening, aiming for fifteen per week, with the hope of converting at least three of those into actual loans.
Common Challenges
Throughout my cold calling journey, I encountered several challenges, such as hang-ups and rejections like "I've already taken care of that" or "Please remove me from your list." However, one hurdle stood out: the dreaded answering machine.
Embracing the Answering Machine
Initially, I found the idea of pitching to a machine daunting. But over time, facing rejection from actual people led me to view voicemail as a valuable ally.
I started utilizing the voicemail to help potential customers become familiar with me. Speaking in a friendly, upbeat voice, I introduced myself and the company, ensuring I connected with them on a personal level.
Keeping it Concise
My approach was strategic. I briefly described a suitable product that could meet their needs, keeping messages short and engaging to prevent immediate deletion.
The Key to Engagement
Merely leaving your name and number isn't enough to entice callbacks, especially when cold calling. Offering a glimpse of a valuable product can significantly increase the chances of a return call.
Conclusion
By effectively using voicemail and presenting intriguing product opportunities, you can turn this challenge into a productive tool in your sales strategy.
