@fluffy I'm glad #coldcalling individuals is illegal in my juristiction and regulators literally cut abusers' lines…

Them - I come to you asking if you want any art done as I'm an artist, do you want me to do you some art?
Me - No
Them - Can I ask why?
Me - No (then I proceed to block their intrusive ass!)

Hilariously split reactions to Pump.co's (#YC co. and supplier of ours) cold-calling strategy on LinkedIn. A real prism for attitudes toward #ColdCalling in late 2024. Props to Spandana (CEO) for her spirited front-line defense https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:ugcPost:7273404101441261568?commentUrn=urn%3Ali%3Acomment%3A%28ugcPost%3A7273404101441261568%2C7273857421851127808%29&dashCommentUrn=urn%3Ali%3Afsd_comment%3A%287273857421851127808%2Curn%3Ali%3AugcPost%3A7273404101441261568%29

Wer hat schon einmal einen Anruf eines Unternehmens erhalten und daraufhin am Telefon einen Vertrag geschlossen oder verlängert? Ob dabei ein einfaches „Ja“ für einen Vertragsschluss ausreicht, erfahrt ihr hier 👇

And another financial consultant shark cold call. Blocked and reported as spam.

That's a first - I just had what appeared to be an AI-driven spam/scam phone call. It had a woman's voice, asking about problems with the house I live in. It reacted to my statements in a way that was rather like the old "Eliza" system, sometimes with very noticeable delays. I gave evasive answers and it eventually repeated a sentence it had used earlier, with exactly the same intonation. 🤔

Salesperson: A stranger is just a friend you haven’t met yet!
Me: Ok! Let’s be the kind of friends who don’t interrupt each others’ day to try to sell them something.

LinkedIn: Bryce Paul, Senior Business Development Manager, wants your money!
Me: Sure, I'd b—wait, what?
LinkedIn: Um, Bryce Paul want to connect. I said Bryce Paul wants to connect.

In my books this type of #ColdCalling on #WhatsApp is an obvious scam. Usually I follow up and the scenario is always the same:
1) We have an extremely cool job for you.
2) You have to register on this portal where you will do some random clicking and see how you're getting some virtual coins. At a ridiculous rate (100$+ / 10 min).
3) Now you're supposed to withdraw the "earned" money, but to do that you first need to activate the platform by depositing money into it.
4) ??? I never got past that point for pretty obvious reasons, but I always made sure that I wasted as much of their time as possible. -
Look. B2B sales is hard. I get it.
But sending an out-of-the-blue meeting invitation to a cold lead is the wrong move, ONE-HUNDRED PERCENT of the time.
Don’t do this. Don’t ever do this.It’s not chutzpah. It’s not being a go-getter. It is NOT standard practice, either for corporate sales in general or your industry in particular. It is sure as fuck neither taking the initiative nor being proactive.
It’s being an arrogant asshole. Every time.
Don’t.

If you’re a B2B marketer, the fastest way to improve your cold email approach is to stop sending cold emails.

Pienso fehacientemente que muchas de las personas que, cuando les llama un comercial para venderles algo y sólo saben tener malas palabras y un trato nefasto hacia el comercial, de ser al revés, no aguantarían ni 1 hora de lo que es la venta fría telefónica.
Entiendo que somos pesad@s y que a las personas les llegan muchas veces llamadas de la misma empresa ofreciéndole lo mismo, pero nosotros no manejamos a quién llamamos, nos llegan las llamadas y así tal cual tenemos que hacer el speech. Un poquito de comprensión no vendría mal a algun@s.
Como consejo, nosotr@s l@s teleoperadores/as preferimos que cuelguen la llamada diciendo "No, gracias" a tener que estar aguantando insultos y trolleos a quienes solo intentamos ganar algo para poder vivir.

When you're cold calling and someone thinks you're an AI, because their phone cuts out and I have to repeat myself several times in the same cadence.

Cold email opener:
"Hi Max! Do you handle print collateral for [name of employer]?"
No, but I handle cold email inquiries from print collateral service providers. In fact, I have a special button for handling them, which is labeled "Report Junk."

I watched Rob Walling's interview with John Ndege on how you need to create a script when doing cold calling. Great stuff if you're into that.

Marketers: there is no cold email hack that can turn me into a warm prospect. It can't be done.
#spam #b2b #ColdCalling -
Marketers: my number-one tip for making a cold approach to a prospect is DON’T DO IT. If you’re going to, anyhow, my number-two tip is: Do not pretend it’s a warm approach.
Tip number three? If I ignored your first cold email, don’t send a second one that pretends like we’re in a conversation or that I owe you my availability for a call.
If you did your homework on me and sent 100 emails, but I’ve never replied, email number 101 is still a cold call.

If you are in #b2b marketing, there’s a right way and a wrong way to do cold emails.
The right way is not to do it.
#email #spam #ColdCalling #sales -
People. It's 2023. The cold #B2B emails have to stop. I can't believe these are effective for actual, legitimate companies, but either way: the waste and disrespect they represent is beyond the pale.
"But, but, but Max," they sputter, "How will we get our name out there? How will we market our services?"
My brother in Business, I have been thinking all morning, and I can't come up with anything that is less my problem than how you market your services.
