and close more sales over the phone

Selling and cold-calling over the telephone is a process,
and a fairly complex one. Sales Executives that are equipped with

opportunities and hitting more profitable business potentials and
prospects.
Effective selling over the phone is an Art. With practice and correct
knowledge, all sales people can sharpen their telephone communications
skills to consistently close more deals over the phone.
Many sales people who are good at their job often depend on repeated
sales from current customer-base to meet sales targets - it is a great
accounts management skills and part of a very important aspect of a
sales process to generate consistent revenue.
However, overly dependent on repeated customers mean that company would
not grow in market share and mind share; more critically we may lose
out in potential business sales opportunities.
Therefore, new qualified sales leads must be created and successfully
follow up with the ultimate goal to clinch new deals - using of the
telephone to do so is one of the most effective way.
