If you’ve ever suffered from ‘call reluctance’ you know it can be miserable. Call resistance can strike when you least expect. No one likes to think they are afraid to pick up the phone. The feelings related to this malady can be complicated.
When we’ve experienced success in a number of other areas, like sports, business, attracting members of the opposite sex, school, even managing our budgets, it’s disturbing to find out we have a mysterious weakness. Furthermore, we don’t want to talk about it with friends, family, or business associates.
What are the options? Speaking from personal experience, one painful and undesirable choice is to buckle down and through sheer determination and brute force, make the calls. It’s not pretty or fun but most of the time the rewards prove to be so great the misery of cold calling is forgotten, at least temporarily.
Another option is education. The problem with educating the hec out of us as to why we should not have call resistance is the idea we already know cold calling creates new business; we want to cold call however we cannot seem to get past our discomfort. Anyone with experience dealing with cold call issues can recite a dozen motivating reasons why it makes complete sense to make their calls. Anxiety is not always reasonable. We know it does not make sense, yet this ‘cold calling weakness’ follows us around like the Plague.
I suggest trying an ‘out of the box’, uncommon, extraordinary treatment if you want to banish call reluctance from your life forever. Listen up! Don’t waste your time putting something down you have not tried. As the saying goes, “Just Do It!”.
I’m talking about Cold Call Therapy. There is something called Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) that in my opinion, should be called ‘Miracles For You’. Think of EFT as emotional acupuncture.
Here’s a mini-summary of how EFT works. There are specific points on your body that when tapped with two fingers, and coupled with specific affirmations, send signals throughout your body to release long standing negative emotions. EFT is an energy therapy. The tapping sends energy signals throughout a system of energy meridians, and alters messages in your brain. Obviously I’m not a scientist but I’m a successful person in business who can testify to astounding personal results.
Descriptions like, life changing, transformative, miraculous, are flowery terms yet accurate. EFT can effect a vast array of areas in your life if you’re open minded. Give it a try and change your world!

Beyond the Script: How Call Centers Keep Telecom Networks Running and Customers Happy

Yet behind every call that connects and every message that reaches its destination, there is another system quietly working in the background. That system is the call center.
