Cold calling is a sales technique in which a salesperson contacts a potential customer by phone without prior interaction or expressed interest, aiming to introduce a product or service and generate leads. It is commonly used in B2B sales, insurance, real estate, and telemarketing, requiring strong communication skills and resilience to frequent rejection. Despite the rise of digital marketing, cold calling remains a staple prospecting method in many sales organizations.
