List Telemarketing | Lynx Marketing Announces Cold Calling Prospecting Tips for B2B Organizations

Aug. 30, 2010 - PRLog -- Denver, Colorado - Lynx Marketing today released a compiled list of tips aimed at improving B2B telephone prospecting campaigns. Lynx Marketing provides outsourced B2B cold calling services to companies and professionals to support lead generation and appointment setting goals. Telephone prospecting tips include:

1. Project professionalism
It’s a tried and true telephone calling adage to remember to smile when making cold calls. Even if callers don’t physically produce a smile it’s important to remember to project an upbeat and professional energy level over the phone. Callers who come across as professionals will more naturally establish a rapport with those they call.  

2. Rehearse your script
Most telephone prospecting calls include an initial script to help ease the beginning of the call and convey initial essential information. Sticking to a basic script and testing script variations allows for evaluating the effectiveness of message variations and approaches. It’s recommended to practice the script sufficiently until it flows and sounds natural.

3. Remember to listen
Effective communication involves both speaking and listening. After the initial introduction and message is conveyed then listening generally follows. If the call is the first time a contact’s been made then be sure to take note of the response. Information given can be useful for subsequent calls, their timing, whether to schedule a call-back, and how to present future messages.

4. Direct your time efficiently
Efficiency can be introduced into the prospecting calling process at the very beginning by doing the up- front research to produce a well targeted list. Some of the best qualified lists are of prospective customers that already have some awareness of your organization. Call lists generated from attendees at conferences and trade exhibits are often well-qualified lists, for example.
