Cold calling to generate sales leads is not the only way to get leads. In fact cold calling tends to be one of the most inefficient ways to do it. But if you are still cold calling and want to bring in more sales leads without increasing your call volume, then you are in the right place.

In this issue of Cold Calling Supplement we're going to talk about generating sales leads the easy way without doing more work.

So what is the easiest way to generate sales leads? Well the more people come into contact with your offer and know about your product or service the more sales leads you'll have. So you need to get the word out about you and your product or service.

There are many many ways to do this but I'll only cover one method briefly. One powerful method to bring in more sales leads without more cold calling is a press release.

A press release is a short 1 page story about you, your product or service, and your contact info. Once you have a press release you give it to the media and if you've done it right you'll get massive amounts of free publicity in newspapers, on the radio, and maybe even TV. Going in depth on how to write a killer press release is too large of a subject for this article but here are the basics.

First you need to create a newsworthy story. This is easier than it sounds and doesn't require much work. Just make sure that the story about your product or service is interesting and not a sales pitch. Nothing will get your press release thrown away faster than submitting a sales pitch. See this is already much more fun than cold calling!

After you have a newsworthy story you need to create a killer headline that will get your story read. This is one of the most important steps. If your press release doesn't get read then you've wasted your time. Your headline must grab everyone's attention and motivate them to read the rest of your press release.

So after you have a killer headline to go along with your newsworthy story you need to include your contact info. Your contact info is used by the media to contact you about interviews and getting more information.

That is a condensed version but it really is that easy. After you've done a good job on your press release you will get tons of free publicity and then you can drive people to your website, an 800#, or your physical store.
