Tips on cold calling

Hi everyone. I'm a new investor who's currently living in a triplex (house hack) for the last 6 months. I'm interested in buying and holding triplex's in my market. Over the past month I've spent 2-3 hours a week driving for dollars & I've grown a large list of properties that fit my criteria. I feel like I'm now ready to start cold calling. Does anyone have any do's and dont's when it comes to cold calling? What is some information that I absolutely need from the seller? How should my approach be ? etc

Lastly, I've very interested in getting connected with owners who are open to seller financing. Any suggestions on where I can find potential sellers that are open that?

@Jaston Robinson I've never driven for dollars, so can't speak to that at all but you'll need to run numbers against the do not call list. This is a time consuming process, but if you're dedicated to getting on the phones I recommend getting a dialer service like RedX or Vulcan 7. They're an investment for sure, but on RedX (what I use), you can geo target areas that you set, it gets all the known owner numbers, bounces it against the DNC list and you just hit "go" and the dialer just takes you through all the numbers. You can leave prerecorded messages too. Very fast, very efficient, only a couple hundred a months depending onhow much data you buy.
