  BIZARRE THOUGHTS


It seems just like yesterday that Bizarre Promotions, Inc. came to life - 2007 marks our 18th Year In Business.  It has been an amazing roller coaster ride.  Even though we are over the so called "5 Year Hump" that many businesses don't overcome, I still wonder and worry every year if we will make it through another year.

Why are we still here after 18 years? - I'd like to think our great customer service is the major reason followed by quality products and some of the best priced promotional products in the industry.

All that said our longevity is really based on our customers.  Repeat business and referrals are really the basis for our survival, in an industry with over 18,000 distributors like us nationwide.  Looking through our sales figures we have retained customers for 8, 10 and even 12 years - sure the three key ingredients (Service, Quality, Price) keeps them coming back year after year.

So to thank all our current customers and build new customer relationships we are offering 18% Off our entire line of over 750,000 Promotional Items and Corporate Gifts.

Cold Calling Techniques-5 Tips For More Appointments!
by Chris Sitnson


Good cold calling techniques can make a difference in whether you schedule a lot of appointments or make a sale or whether you spent a lot of time making cold calls without any results. Cold calling techniques are used by many of the pros and should be learned by anybody who is new to sales or would like to improve their conversion rate over the phone.

There are several tips you can follow that will help you with your cold calling technique and speaking with sales prospects. We'll take a look at five tips you should keep in mind that will help you with your cold calling techniques.

1. Cold Calling Techniques-Eliminate Crutch Words

Crutch words are words that people use to fill space and they make you sound unprepared and unconfident. Words such as basically, well, actually, uh, or um are just some examples of crutch words that people use. Try to eliminate these types of words for your vocabulary when cold calling.

2. Cold Calling Techniques-Don't Give Them an Escape Route

When you contact somebody on the phone do not ask them questions like it is a good time or do you have a couple of minutes? This just gives them an opportunity to tell you to call back later and more than likely they will not be available the next time you call. A lot of people say that this is a sign of courtesy and your show respect for their time but your time is also valuable and if they are not interested in what you are offering it is better to know a front.

3. Cold Calling Techniques-Maintain an Upright Position

When your posture is slouching you give off an impression that you are tired and you are really bored with what you are doing. You may not hear it in your own voice but other people will and why would they want to be with somebody who is bored and tired?

4. Cold Calling Techniques-Prepare Yourself for Rejection

Cold calling is a tough business and you are bound to get a lot of no thanks, I'm busy right now, and call back later. Prepare yourself for the fact that you will be getting a lot or rejection when you are cold calling and that this rejection is a normal part of the process

5. Cold Calling Techniques-Give Them a Call To Action

When you are doing business-to-business marketing or person-to-person marketing always end your phone call with a call to action. It does not matter if a phone call has gone bad you have nothing to lose by asking for the appointment or asking for the sale.

Take these five cold calling techniques and use them the next time you decide to cold call, they will help you improve your conversion rate and they will give you more energy to continue the calls.
