Tired Of Cold Calling?

By Ralf Dooley


If youare not ready to put an end to cold calling, think about this: cold calling is an old, outdated method of contacting consumers by telephone to sell your product. The problem with cold calling in, most of the people you contact arenat interested in what you have to offer. At best, the person you contact will get frustrated and hang up on you, which is wasting your time and their time.

The biggest problem with cold calling is that you donat have any background to the person youare contacting. You donat know if they have a need or a want for the product youare selling, which makes it near impossible to market it to them. Add in the fact that the pitch is taking place without looking at the person face-to-face, and itas no wonder that cold calling hardly works.

So youare probably ready to put an end to cold calling, but you donat know where to turn to market your product. Consider investing in some leads: MLM email leads will give you not only the contact information of the potential buyer, but information like their location and interests, as well.

You have many options in choosing an internet based company to provide email leads for a small fee. Make sure you check into each one carefully and choose one that offers you not only names, but email addresses, locations and as much general information as you need.

Do be careful when choosing your MLM lead generator to avoid those companies that offer only names and email addresses. Often these companies just harvest names with no knowledge of the customer themselves, and usually without the customers knowledge leading to frustration on their part.

Some of the best leads available to you are MLM geneology leads. MLM geneology leads offer names and information of people who have shown previous interest in MLM and may have actually worked with MLM systems in the past! Isn't this better than cold calling?

This is obviously your target audience, and you can also cut down on the costs and time of training people who are completely new to the industry. Since they already have the experience, they can start sooner than a new recruit. And who knows, they may even be able to teach you something new!

If youare ready to end cold calling, then the only place you need to turn is to MLM leads. You can expect a much better success rate because you know the leads are interested, and save yourself time and money by not wasting your days on the phone with complete strangers. Give it a shot, and youall be pleasantly surprised. What have you got to lose?
