Optimal times and frequency for cold sales outreach

Cold calling remains a powerful outreach tool when done right.

  • Example: “Hi [Name], I’m calling because you were recently exploring life insurance options. Can we discuss how our policies can benefit you?”
• Script tools: Using tools like Gong.io to craft effective scripts.

Cold emailing techniques for life insurance sales

Cold emailing can be equally effective with the right strategy and technology.
