Want to convert your encounters with corporate gatekeepers
from frustrating to fruitful? Whether you are in an active job
search mode or making cold calls for your current employer,
corporate gatekeepers can be painful barriers separating you
from decision makers. Learn unshakable techniques proven to
eliminate these stubborn obstacles. This seminar will provide
inside tips and tools you need to access key contacts directly,
even those shielded by the most clever and persistent guardians
of written, voice and electronic communications.
Cold calling is a very effective way to establish new
connections. Without a doubt, cold calls produce better results
than unsolicited emails, resumes or letters. Timing and message
content must precisely address the needs and interests of the
targeted contact to quickly grab their attention and motivate
them to act.
The initial connection, often mediated by a gatekeeper, can
be critical to achieving positive results.
