Commission Gatekeeper Prospecting Tools

What’s the biggest mistake sales reps make with prospecting or cold calling? They call with what a client of mine once called, “commission breath.”. Your prospecting will go a lot better if you do! Cold calling mistake #1: Don’t pitch the gatekeeper. To start with, the gatekeeper doesn’t want to hear your pitch.

But when you’ve done a presentation and then don’t hear back from a prospect, it can often mean the kiss of death. While it seems counter intuitive, I’d rather know up front if I’m wasting my time or if this is a real prospect. Nobody likes hearing from a salesperson who has “commission breath” as a manager once told me.

I was listening to a training call the last week, and the prospect told the rep that his price was quite high for a certain item. The rep then asked for the part number and told this prospect that he would “see what I can do.”.

The answer is simple: Prospects now have more ways of identifying sales reps they don’t want to speak with, and now have more ways of evading them. It’s the same for your prospects. While it seems counter intuitive, I’d rather know up front if I’m wasting my time or if this is a real prospect. What do you do? That’s right.

They find too many other things to do instead of constantly hunting or contacting prospects or following up with clients. “I I fact,” he offered, “If they just spent more time dialing, they would all make a heck of a lot more sales and commissions,” he concluded. Just think of how much more commission you’ll earn if you just did that.
