In this episode of the Cold Calling Podcast, Ed and Collin get hung up on back-to-back calls so Tommy suggests for them to reflect on their current approach.

He soon speaks with a prospect who was interested in the idea but couldn't explore it because he was in the middle of having a baby! It still counted as a win though as Collin got valuable information that he can use for his follow up call.To learn more about Monster Connect and to claim your free dial session visit:https://monsterconnect.com/salescast

"One More Question" with Tommy Slocum
In this episode of the Cold Calling Podcast, Tommy Slocum coaches Ed on digging deeper with questions whenever a prospect says that podcasting "isn't in the company's DNA." He talks about exploring the prospect's reasons for saying this and developing the mindset of asking just one more question. If you nail that question, it might just be the geyser that allows the other person to open up. Collin adds that you can even ask them if they know other individuals who might be interested in podcasting. Getting referrals and leads can count as wins as well!To learn more about Monster Connect and to claim your free dial session visit:https://monsterconnect.com/salescast

Count the Small Wins
In this episode of the Cold Calling Podcast, Collin reminds why counting small wins is important. You can find out a lot even if a prospect doesn't end up booking a meeting or giving a referral. For example, a prospect today shared that they are actually working on a podcast with a partner, giving Collin more information to work with moving forward into the future. He can weave in the right information and perhaps reach out to a different team member about working with Salescast on a different call!
