Coldcalling opening lines …
Coldcalling is one of my favourite things. It also reduces me to tears.
A great recruiter once told me “make your cold call a warm call and you’ll be okay”.
You have about ten seconds to make your first impression – a little more than if you’re face-to-face. You can be fat, green and naked, but on the phone you’re as good as the spiv with the quiff at the desk next door.
Ten seconds is enough for a little flattery and a question that nobody can say “no” to:
“I’ve heard that you’re the person who can solve my problem. Can you help me out?“
Then it’s up to you, but you’ve kissed some ass and forced your first “yes” with two short sentences.
