Is telemarketing dead? How do you cold call in a "do not call list" environment? Some might say, "referrals." New business referrals are great, especially for quality business. Yet, anyone experienced in starting a business from scratch or anyone with the need to develop new business leads immediately knows that referrals may not arrive in the quantities and time frame needed.
In the not so distant past, cold calling was touted as the bread and butter process for many business people in sales. Over the years, the "do not call list" and caller ID has caused a steady decline in telemarketing. Today there are varing views on whether cold calling remains a viable prospecting method.
