I believe the old "you get what you pay for" probably rings true more often than not.

When you make the telephone ring in abundance you win. 

By calling them back you risk ringing them at a less than optimal time due to personal issues or mood at that moment.

I've since got a simple 3 ring binder and have the seller lead sheets organized according to month.

You use words and statements that will ring true to them.

But when you come through to the other side, and learn to trust your marketing and know that the phone will ring again....well, then you'll be coming back here and telling every one that you have to be persistent, consistent, and stick with it a minimum of six months.As for Post Cards, just because the price tag is small doesn't mean they're cheap.

One issue is that whitepages keeps inactive phone numbers and emails in their records, so at least half of our calls never ring and a decent amount of emails get bounced back.

I then set followup sequences inside of my CRM which notifies me when it's time to give a cold lead a ring again.I've seen my response rate go from a 1-2% to around a 4-7% increase when i added cold calling.The beautiful thing is this entire process is now outsourced and it makes my business more profitable and gives me more time during the day.

They actually answer fast however the ringing youre hearing is the delay finding an available operator.

Make sure you are ready for the phone when it rings.
