I am an old hat when it comes to Cold Calls, i have TOnes of prior experience as both A Call Center Manager and a telemarketer and have been prosperous digging up a few Fleet accounts since starting my business 3 years ago. I have just reciently started targetting roofs ' i have done 20 or so' and my question to you guys and gals is do you make cold calls to commercial prospects to drum up business? This is a avenue that i will be persuing in the not so distant future and i am curious as to how some of you guys have done. Thanks

Of course we do, those that are not a household name already. We seldom cold call anymore, don't have to. But in the early days, of course we did.
Persoanlly, I don'tlike commercial as much as residential. Build a customer base of 5000 residential accounts, and you are set. But with commercial, someone can come in and cut your throat, leaving you w/o roof cleaning work. IOW, don't place all your eggs in one basket.

Everyday we cold call, unless I find them sleeping at the park!!

Everyone should cold call, I'm 25 years old and to this day we do not rely on our brand alone. Sure we get alot of old customers that know us call in for service, but think about this?

People in those corporations do not stick around as long anymore. Lots of turn over, we must make the rounds and intro ourselves to the new employees.

Its a constant battle in the commerical world.

Ron, I hate to be the one to say it, but you have not aged well for being 25 years old. Sorry Dude.
