How To Overcome The Fear Of Prospecting
by Michael S. Clouse
F.E.A.R - False Expectations Appearing Real.
"Confidence is preparation's twin." —Michael S. Clouse
To overcome any fear, you must:
1) understand the beast, and 2) tame the beast.
Three areas of prospecting:
-
Hot Market - Close family & friends.
-
Warm Market - Those you know well.
-
Cold Market - Those you don't know at all.
Three kinds of prospectors:
-
Prospectors who don't want to call Close Family &
Friends, but will call their Warm Market and
may reluctantly do Cold Market prospecting.
-
Prospectors who don't want to call Close Family &
Friends, or their Warm Market, but claim that
they want to do Cold Market prospecting.
-
Prospectors who do only Cold Market prospecting.
