cold calling

the process of approaching prospective customers or clients, typically via telephone, who were not expecting such an interaction. The word "cold" is sometimes thought of as being used because the person receiving the call is not expecting a call or has not specifically asked to be contacted by a sales person. It is pretty much another word of telemarketing

I hate when those people from overseas are cold calling me to sell me insurance that I already have.

Cold calling

Unsolicited, unexpected and vigorous oral sex.

"How do you feel about cold calling?" "I fucking hate it" (15minutes later) "How do feel about it now?" "mmm..I'm a big fan"

Cold-calling the cold-caller

When being caught off guard in a scenario by someone who wants something, quickly restoring control by making demands of your own. Usually leads to awkwardness and some confusion on the part of the person who started the conversation. The term is known to originate from Surrey where individuals who when answering the door to cold-callers, would reverse roles and persuade the cold-caller to buy something or make a donation etc.

Cold-caller: Hello there, i was wondering whether you would like to make a donation today to Save the World?

Individual: Hmm, that sounds very noble but I believe a more worthy cause to be ........... It was set up around 40 years ago and looks to .......... Would you be interested in setting up a standing order.

Individual 2: Ah you're so bad, always cold-calling the cold-caller.

Intent-based cold calling

Triggering automatic call tasks on Apollo.io and parallel dialing those prospects on Salesfinity.co to get instant call connects while leads are red hot.

I am making intent-based cold calling to get higher conversion.
