My first coldcall day for buyers list

So I've been procrastinating about this part but knew I didn't have a choice. I grabbed the greensheet and forced myself to finally do it. I stated a nice little scripted intro that told who I was, what I was, that I'd seen their ad, and how I worked. When I first started I was leaning forward, heart pounding, and fullf fear. By the end I was leaned back and relaxxed. It went surprisingly well. Had some very receptive, some iffy ones, and others weren't interested. If they weren't interested I asked them if they might have any friends who might be and if they could pass my info along.

I also got some compliments on my domain name for my website. They liked how easy it was to remember and how it summed up my business. Even better I got 2 leads for potential sellers.

Now I haven't actually gotten an email from my autoresponder that anyone has signed up yet. Do you think from now on I should get their name, phone, and email even though I have also sending them to my site or is that a bad idea on a cold call?

All in all I did it for 2 hours and thought it was a pretty good experience.
