B2B Cold Call Opener Script

Hi [Prospect Name], this is [Your Name] from [Company]. I'll be upfront — this is a cold call, so I'll keep it brief. The reason I'm calling: We work with [type of company] to help them [specific outcome — e.g. "reduce their onboarding time by about 40%"]. I don't know if that's relevant for you right now — but I thought it was worth a quick conversation to find out. Do you have 2 minutes, or is now a bad time? [If yes, continue. If no:] "Totally understand. When would be a better time to talk — would [day] work?" [If yes to the 2 minutes:] Great. So my one question for you is — right now, how are you handling [specific process/problem]? [Listen. Qualify. Pivot to discovery.]
