a good research about your client is always a great thing to start eliminating cold conversation start, by knowing their interests and combining them in a turn point where you can bring in your product for a good smooth sale
In my opinion, the most important two points are friendliness and professionalism, which go hand-in-hand, and the big picture at first to get there attention and once they are interested you go into the details.
Simply how to find a point of interest both of you can talk on and this is simply can be happened by being friendly and always a good listener and never to interrupt
Cold Call Most Important thing is
1> Your Appearance have to be well dressed up in presentable way.
2> smile and greet the person, handover the business card and introduce your self.
3> confidence in talking and listening the person on the other end.
3> Deal smartly with Gatekeepers because they are sometimes more bigger hurdle than the actual decision maker himself. make the gate keeper comfortable. this gate keeper can be reception, secretary, other department heads etc. if gate keeper is stubborn, make strategy to either dodge the gatekeeper by smart and genuine ways or find other person or employee who can give you lead to reach the right person.
4> Hard work and reaching to maximum targets in a day is key to success.
Best luck in cold calling !
Beginners tend to think that cold calling is about making the sale. It's not. It's about getting the chance to make the sale. Specifically, the purpose of a cold call is to set an appointment to make the pitch.
avoid common mistakes in the opening that would give the person the chance to terminate the conversation. Don't read your opening statement into the phone, but use it as a framework to get the conversation off to a good start.
In your cold calling "Include a greeting and an introduction, a reference point (something about the prospect), the benefits of your product or service, and a transition to a question or dialogue.
Be prepared to answer detailed questions about your products and services!
Ask for an appointment specific timeSay, "Would Wednesday at 11 a.m. be a good time to meet?" instead of saying, "Can I meet with you to discuss this next week
"Eighty percent of new sales are made after the fifth contact, yet the majority of sales people give up after the second call"
And above all, practice, practice, practice. While cold calling may never be much fun for you, you can get better at it, and the more you practice, the more effective a sales tactic it will be. So get your script and your call list together and reach for the phone. The people who want to do business with you are out there - but you have to let them know about you first..
I've Listed below the basics that needs to be applied when cold calling and more important to the below is always be prepared.
A good listening of his needs first
Simple greeting to confirmation of the right client (Person you are calling)
Clear communication as to step 1 - Your Introduction
Step 2 - Reason for call

Step 4 - Professional but friendly Exit (End of call)
An opening with greeting
Your quick introduction (keep it short)
the intent of your call(be very honest about why you are calling him, no beating around the bush)
seeking permission to continue (your prospect are busy, so always check if its the right time if not seek for an appropriate time
Introduce your services/product (explain how it will be helpful to them). be prepared to answer any question that might arise, so do a very detailed homework before calling someone
value proposition(how you are different and why he should listen to you)
Finally, seek opportunity to work for them/explain in detail over a scheduled call/meeting
You must be honest,straight forward, respectfull and informed.
