Cold calling........unavoidable task in sales?

A famous Professor at Harvard Business School Once asked his students to name the number one reason that business do not succeed. He got all kinds of answers, ranging from bad management and bad programs to bad products, poor concepts, and lack of capital. After reading all their answers he stood before his class and told them that the number one reason businesses fail is ...."Lack of sales"

That's it. Its lack of real sales-the work you and I do on front lines. And if I can't get in the door to see people, I'm not going to sell. In most selling environments, nothing can happen unless you're able to get that first appointment. No matter how well you sell, if you can't get in door, if you cannot get an appointment to see somebody, you're nor going to sell.
