Your Biggest Sales Challenge
           Most sales professionals say their biggest
            business development challenges are:
           • Getting the meeting at the level that
             counts
           • Converting prospects to customers




© Copyright Joanne Black : All rights reserved : www.NoMoreColdCalling.com : 415-461-8763   7
Joanne’s Point of View
           • There’s no such thing as a warm call
           • A call is either cold or…




© Copyright Joanne Black : All rights reserved : www.NoMoreColdCalling.com : 415-461-8763   8
Joanne’s Point of View
           HOT!




© Copyright Joanne Black : All rights reserved : www.NoMoreColdCalling.com : 415-461-8763   9
Referrals Are HOT Calls
           Referred prospects know us and expect our
           call.

Referred Prospects
           You receive an introduction!




© Copyright Joanne Black : All rights reserved : www.NoMoreColdCalling.com : 415-461-8763   11
Why Referrals Are Key
                 When you receive a qualified referral
                 introduction, think about what happens…




© Copyright Joanne Black : All rights reserved : www.NoMoreColdCalling.com : 415-461-8763   12
Why Referrals Work
           • You arrive pre-sold
           • You’ve earned credibility and trust
           • Your sales time shortens
           • The competition goes away (mostly)
           • Your time with clients increases
           • There are no “hard” costs



© Copyright Joanne Black : All rights reserved : www.NoMoreColdCalling.com : 415-461-8763   13
Why Referrals Are Key
                 What percent of the time do you get a
                 new client when you receive a referral?
           30%
           50%
           70%
           90%
           100%


© Copyright Joanne Black : All rights reserved : www.NoMoreColdCalling.com : 415-461-8763   14
Why Referrals Are Key
                 Most salespeople say more than 50%,
                 and many say 70% plus
           30%
           50%
           70%
           90%
           100%

                     their company

A New Way of Working
           • What is your cost of not making the
             transition to referral selling?
           • What are you losing or giving up as a
             result of this transition?
           • What is the cost of doing nothing?
