The article "Reduce Cold Call Frustration By Reengineering Your Attitude!" talks about sales teleselling, it has been written by Daniel Arenzon.
We all know the benefits of cold calling and its ability to gain new clients and take additional market share. We also understand that with such success comes a cost and that cost is called “Cold Call Frustration.” The constant rejection, the number of calls, the amount of repeat clals to the same prospect and the voicemail messages that you leave can be very mentally draining.
It can consume you and srtip you of your motivation. As a result, your attitude beocmes affected and you turn to a pathway of negativity. If you allow cold callnig to consume you then you will not last at your job very long.
In that case watch out for Donald Trump because he may say you’re "FIRED! "So what can you do to conquer these frustrations? One sure-fire way to constantly stay focused and be motivated is to listen to motivational tapes on your breaks, in your sales meetings or even in your auto! These personal development or self-help types of programs are empowering tools that you can use to increase your awareness of the world around you.
The contents of these programs include many ideas and concepts that are considered by many as common sense, but in reality, they are not common usage.Example personal developemnt topics that you could listen to include a couple of of the following:Positive Thinking
Goal Setting
Attitude
Stress ManagementWhen you make a proactive effort to “feed your mind” of that type of self-help information you right now become more aware (meaning the information that we have learned moves from our subconscious to conscious mind) of how to handle certain obstacles that we experience in life—and in that case it’s cold call frustration.
Here a couple of more tips on how you may want to embrace that new idea:Try keeping a box of motivational auido tapes and cds in your auto so that you can easily listen to a variety of speakers.Ebay is a cost-effective website that you can use to purchase these programs.If you can get your sales team to buy into that idea you can play different tapes at each sales dating without cutting into your department’s budget.Incorporate what you have learned into your sales calls as a tool to reduce resistance. Your newfound enthusiasm and positive attitude have the power to alter your prospect’s sttae of mind. This means that you have the power to change their attitude and as a result you may end up changing their behavior--that means a new sale for you! A few of my favorite motivational speakers inlcude Anthony Robbins, Les Brown, Zig Ziglar and Brian Tracy.As a final note, I have last week finished listening to Dale Carnegie’s audio book called "How To Stop Worrying And Start Living" he wrote that one’s attitude is the chief engineer of one’s life and you know what? He’s right! Motivational tapes are a great way to "reengineer your attitude" so that you quickly remove your cold call frustration.Copyright 2006 MR.
