    Cold calling is a little stressful for me also, people are always busy and it's really hard get the businesses on the phone. Great info!

    Great information. Cold calling is not easy and not all people are very open to it. One needs to learn the techniques to be effective at cold calling.

    A great way to get someones attention through the mailing process that ties to the "letter" rules listed on this site. Instead of letters, send cartoon marketing cards. They look like a birthday, thank you card etc.... and the prospect will most likely open it out of curiosity. Be sure to do a follow up call the day they receive it. Do 5 per week along with the other wonderful ideas on this site. Great job Jake!

    ok, how did you do that?
    How did your "system" pull my name and put it on your squidoo page under "add an idea" like that?
    Thanks,
