I have been in data pipelines, know how to source leads like for cold calling scraping etc etc

So, i'm thinking if cold calling is still alive for web design clients
 
Cold calling isn’t dead, but it has definitely changed. In today’s environment, generic mass calling doesn’t work the way it used to — people are more selective and often ignore unknown numbers. What still works is targeted outreach, where you understand the business, their problem, and approach the call more like a conversation rather than a sales pitch.
 
You should have a FANTASTIC portfolio to show, preferably websites
that are already making you money

good share, I think it is the factor now
 
Guys i think this strategy work :

You call the person

say I saw you don't have website

then i say i have set up free home page

it will take only 5 mins to review if you like you can keep it and I can live it for you blah blah etc

You can also use the opener "I'm going to be honest this is a cold call would you like to hang up now or give me 30 seconds?"

This works, i have been very in cc (learning ), Honest + Direct hook work very well
 
Pretty much still is. For websites you can still land clients, especially with local businesses. Though it'd have to be targeted. Just blasting calls off of a scraped list could be rough.
Your edge is the data side. If you can source and filter good leads instead of random ones, you’re already ahead.
But yeah, still viable but it’s more about precision and relevance than volume now.

Good share man but, what exactly mean to good lead, if businesses don't have website it is lead right? or am i wrong? can you tell me
 
For local clients, it still works perfectly. Offline businesses are harder to convert via cold calling.
