Cold Calling Tips To Overcome Your Fear Of Rejection!

Love it or hate it, network marketing appears to be here to stay. It is attractive because of the potential to for lucrative returns on a nominal investment. There's absolutely nothing wrong with chasing that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow; the bad press regarding this business model is largely due to unscrupulous characters who misuse it for (illegal) Ponzi or pyramid schemes.

Those who want to get involved should know that starting at the bottom of the ladder will mean a lot of grunt work, especially at the start, the least of which is the dreaded cold calling. There are those who are sure that it is old-fashioned, unpopular, ineffective and thus unnecessary and will die a slow but sure death, but until it does, there are some cold calling tips to overcome the fear of rejection that are helpful.

The first thing you should remember about cold calling: it is just business! Cold calling is not personal. Neither is rejection. You're not calling because you're interested in their welfare, after all. If they reject what you're offering, it's because they're not interested, not because they hate your guts. Take time to compose yourself after a call if you have to. The development of a thick skin is always helpful.

If you care about your job at all, have an outline of the call you need to make. Helene Malmsio from the Free MLM Consultants Training website suggests that you should write a script if you have to! Include the essential points of what you're trying to sell. You only have about 30 seconds to convince the person on the other end that you're worth their time. A guide lets you relax and not worry about what you are going to say next. This enables you to listen to the potential customer properly, which helps them feel that they're talking to a genuine human being and not a bored corporate drone.

Always be yourself. Sounds painfully obvious? You'd be surprised how many people feel that they have to project a certain image over the phone. This often makes a cold caller's spiel sound forced and unnatural. Take that script or outline that you wrote and read it aloud. If it doesn't sound like something you'd say, then change it! Cold calling formats aren't carved in stone. If you can make the recipient feel like you could be their friend, then that's half the battle won.

Rejection is a part of cold calling, and you shouldn't use your fear of it as an excuse not to do it at all.
