Prospecting for new business is as necessary as breathing. Without a steady stream of new clients, a business will suffocate. The most difficult part of the sales process and often the least liked by sales people is Prospecting. Whether it’s a cold call, a warm call or a referral, Sales people need to connect with decision making buyers (the Gold). Getting that first appointment is key to keeping your pipeline full and closing more sales.

You will learn a Sales Process that is both fun and rewarding. You will be jazzed when you see your open rate on emails increase and the growing ease of getting to the decision makers.
