Let’s get this out of the way: cold calling is not dead.
It’s just evolved—and most people are doing it wrong.
You know the calls we’re talking about robotic intros, zero personalization, awkward pauses, and someone clearly reading a script like it’s the first draft of a bad high school play. That’s not cold calling—that’s just cold and painful.
At Channel Hunters, we’ve seen what real cold calling looks like in 2025. It’s human, data-driven, and built around real conversations—not canned pitches. And yes, it still books qualified appointments every single week for MSPs, MSSPs, and IT vendors.
Here’s how to make cold calling actually work this year:
1. Know Who You’re Calling—and Why
📞 Cold calling in 2025 isn’t about dialing down a random list. It’s about calling with context.
That means:
- You understand their industry pain points
- You’ve done just enough research to make it personal
Channel Hunters Pro Tip: We don’t call just anyone—we call the right people. Our data-backed targeting ensures your ideal customer profile is always front and center.
2. Ditch the Salesy Openers
Nothing screams “hang up” like:
“Hi, is now a good time?”
It’s conversational. It’s human. And it should respects their time.
Our Method: Every Channel Hunters SDR is trained to open with confidence, empathy, and relevance—because first impressions do matter.
3. Make It About Them
People don’t care about your services until they know you get their struggles.
Here’s what doesn’t work:
“We offer proactive IT support with 24/7 monitoring.”
Here’s what does:
“We’ve been helping firms like yours reduce ticket volume and avoid downtime—curious if that’s something you’re dealing with?”
Speak their language. Address real pain points. Then offer value.
4. Objections? Good. That Means They’re Listening.
If you’re getting objections, it means you’ve sparked interest—they’re just unsure yet.
The best cold callers don’t bulldoze objections. They reframe them:
❌ “I’m not interested.”
✅ “Totally get that—most of our clients said the same before they saw how we helped reduce IT headaches by 40%.”
Channel Hunters Approach: We equip our team with objection-handling frameworks that turn “no thanks” into “tell me more.”
5. Follow-Up Like a Pro
One call is never enough. But spamming someone every day for a week? That’s a surefire way to get ghosted.
Smart cold calling involves:
- Timed, value-based follow-ups
- Using multiple channels (voicemail, email, LinkedIn)
- Reminding them of the value—not just “circling back”
What We Do: At Channel Hunters, our multi-touch follow-up system keeps you top of mind without being annoying. Because fortune doesn’t just favor the bold—it favors the persistent and strategic.
