Do Cold Calling
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I need help with cold calling potential clients for my business.
I own a moving company, and we do relocations for businesses who are moving to a new office or facility.
In order to figure out which businesses might be potential clients, I want to assess their needs in order to see if they might need my service or not.
If this project is successful in helping me get busines, I will want to do more work in the future.
YOU MUST HAVE A PHONE SYSTEM THAT RECORDS CALLS
I will provide you with a spreadsheet with a list of information
INSTRUCTIONS
Make 50 phone calls. Leave messages if the call goes to voicemail. Use the following information in the calls:
- I'm _____ with Falcon Moving.
- I'm calling local businesses to see when their leases are ending, and I wanted to know if the company is going to be renewing the lease, or if the company is going to be moving to a new location? (Sometimes the person answering the phone is the owner, and has a lot of information, and sometimes the person answering the phone doesn't have much information about the situation)
- If they are interested in moving services, tell them that relocation specialist will be giving them a call. If they ask further questions that you're unable to answer, tell them that you technically don't work FOR the company, and you're doing a project on behalf of the company, so you don't know any more information, but you can get someone else to get in contact with them.
Make sure to add the following information to the spreadsheet.
- The date when the lease is going to end (or any other status information you are provided in regards to that)
- If the company will need movers
- The names and positions in the company of the people you spoke with, or the names and positions in the company of people you left voicemails for
If there are multiple extensions or phone numbers for the business, also get those phone numbers, and insert that information to new rows (below the other row for the same business) in the spreadsheet. Call and leave messages for ALL extensions.
If the person who answers the phone provides you with the with phone numbers or extensions for someone else who has more information, make sure you call that person and put their information on the spreadsheet.
You can ONLY make calls between Monday and Friday between the hours of 8am-5pm central standard time.
After making the calls, send me recordings of the calls, so that I can evaluate the quality of the calls before deciding if I would like for you to proceed with making more calls.
PAY:
I AM PAYING $0.25 PER CALL.
FOR EVERY CALL WHERE YOU GET A DATE WHERE THE LEASE IS GOING TO BE UP, YOU WILL GET AN ADDITIONAL $0.25.
FOR EACH CALL WHERE THE COMPANY IS GOING TO BE INTERESTED IN HIRING MOVERS, YOU WILL GET AN ADDITIONAL $5.
BEFORE STARTING THIS PROJECT, YOU MUST SEND ME RECORDINGS OF YOU SPEAKING ON THE PHONE SO THAT I KNOW HOW YOU SOUND.
