4.0 out of 5 stars Simple, Very Useable, Feb 23 2004
By Wallace Depp (in the California High Desert) - See all my reviews
This was my first book on the subject of cold calling, and I admit I still am not as well read on the topic as some of the other reviewers may be. The book does boil cold calling down to a very basic and straighforward level, which may offend some who want to believe that in order for a strategy to work it has to be complex. Personally, I think there's enough innate complexity in life, we should not look for strategies that incorporate it as well.

The techniques are straightforward, and contrary to what Bob from New York will tell you, the author does not advocate gimmicks, in fact he admonishes the reader not to use them. This book should be read and considered by anyone interested in cold calling.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Start-Ups, Nov 25 2003
By Kent Hutchison (Nacogdoches, TX United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is a BASIC easy to read text. I was able to read it in one evening. I strongly recommend this book for the sales consultant who needs to use the telephone to set up face-to-face meetings.

Remember this is just a basic book -- don't buy if you're looking for excuses why your sales prospecting isn't working. Read the book -- try Stephan's easy to follow method -- watch the appointments increase.

3.0 out of 5 stars A so-so guide to cold calling..., Sep 26 2003
By A Customer
It's an OK book if you are completely new to cold calling. If you've had any experience with it, look elsewhere since this book is just about the basics. But since I got it really cheap using a coupon from UnderTag.com, I can't really complain.

The book is poorly written and full of gimmicky ideas. For example, like hanging up in the middle of a voice mail message to get a return call. Read more

You would have to be peddling a product that cost less than a 100.00 bucks to use this approach. I am not sure I would place much confidence in a review from W.V. Read more
