If you are a business owner and use a website to sell your product or service, you want to be certain that you’re attracting the right kind of traffic to your website. In the past, before the Internet became so popular, salesmen had to cold call in order to generate much needed financial sales leads. Cold calling involves calling people, complete strangers, with the sole purpose of delivering a sales pitch. While this technique is still used today, it’s still not an effective sales technique. These salesmen purchase the names and phone numbers from companies that are willing to sell their client’s personal information. These are not qualified leads and aren’t guaranteed to buy whatever you’re selling. There’s a good chance that these people aren’t remotely interested in what you’re offering. When cold calling, salespeople are just hoping for a yes. Imagine how frustrating it would be to spend an entire day cold calling that resulted in just one or two yeses. That would be torturous work indeed? It’s a sad but true fact that many salespeople still cold call, all day, every day.

That salesman is cold calling. He somehow got your name and phone number, usually having purchased it from a company that had it because you signed up for something. The salesman is calling your number with hopes of selling you whatever he’s offering. This exact scenario happens frequently when salespeople resort to cold calling. They get used to being called nasty names, cussed at, and being hung up on. Even with all the abuse a salesman takes, he keeps plugging away, calling total strangers with the hope that at least one of them will say yes.
