Salespeople underestimate this: My 10 Rules of Cold Calling.
The prospect hears your confidence before they fully process your words. Speak to one person, not an audience. Slow down, make the point, pause, and let the other person enter the conversation. That is where trust begins.

SAY THIS, NOT THAT™
Demonstrate the weak version first, then the stronger human version, around: My 10 Rules of Cold Calling.
A small change can alter an entire sales conversation: My 10 Rules of Cold Calling.
Weak: rush into a pitch and make the prospect defend their time. Better: sound composed, state the reason for calling, then create room for a response. A script should support the conversation, never replace it.
