INSIGHT

Cold Call Success Rate

  • Only 10% of cold calls last over two minutes, meaning 90% fail to secure meetings.
  • Calls under ten minutes rarely convert, so the first minute is crucial.
ADVICE

Reframing the Goal

  • Reframe the cold call's goal: make prospects feel it's irresponsible to refuse you.
  • Bring so much compelling information they can't say no.
ADVICE

Relevance and Social Proof

  • Demonstrate relevance by highlighting a pervasive problem their peers face.
  • Build social proof by referencing similar companies you've helped.
