Write my cold call opener: [WHAT WE SELL, WHO I AM CALLING, THE TRIGGER THAT MADE ME CALL THEM TODAY, THE ONE PROBLEM WE FIX BEST]. Build the first ninety seconds: the opener that earns ten more seconds (pattern interrupt, no 'did I catch you at a bad time'), the trigger line that proves this is not a dialer, the problem hypothesis stated as a question they can say no to, and the ask - one small meeting, not a demo. Give me three variants and the response to the four brush-offs I will hear most.
Inputs needed
- ■Product, target, call trigger, best-fixed problem
What good output looks like
No permission-asking opener; trigger proves homework; hypothesis is no-able; ask is small; brush-off responses scripted
