When used correctly, the phone is a powerful way to start and develop relationships.
Using Win32 Calling Conventions
When writing code for the Win32 platform, most developers don’t pay attention to selecting a “calling convention”, and in most cases it doesn’t really matter much. But as systems get larger and split into more modules (especially when third-party modules are to be included), this becomes something that cannot really be ignored.
Calling a Detail Data Form From A DataGrid Row
The idea is that we have a DataGrid which has list of records in a database table. We want to be able to select a row and call up a detail form which will have the corresponding database detail.

Fill That Sales Slump Without Cold Calling

When Calling “Technical Support” You Should Also Reach “Customer Service”
Technical support has long been the department in corporations that offers guidance when end-users have difficulty with mechanical or technological processes. Most of us call a tech support department to ask questions about our computer, our VCR, our satellite dish or perhaps our Internet service. For those of you who manage a technical support team, let me make a gentle reminder that tech support should also provide customer service.
Are Headhunters Calling You… Or Ignoring You?
In my former life as a recruiter (also affectionately referred to as “headhunter”) I received hundreds of resumes a week from all parts of the country. The statement that a person’s resume gets a 15 second read is not far from the truth. In fact, 15 seconds is a generous assumption. In reality, a resume must capture the recruiter’s attention in the first five seconds to avoid the round file. Candidates can greatly improve their chance of catching the recruiter’s attention by following three simple rules: use the correct format, include plenty of quantifiable accomplishments and sprinkle liberally with appropriate keywords.
Your Personal Job Search Calling Card – You!
Two elements you need at all times in the job hunt are an introduction and your contact information. When you meet people, you will be well armed to expose them with what you can do for them or for someone they know.
How to Succeed at Cold Calling
There it is. That darn phone. And you have to pick it up and call someone you don’t know. You need to make some cold calls. The first thing to know is this – the longer you put off picking up the phone and making that first call, the heavier that phone gets. Give it enough time and you’ll swear the phone weighs 500 pounds when you try to lift it.
Effective Cold Calling
As network marketers, we do a major part of our business by calling leads. For a person just starting out this can be rather intimidating and too often a person doesn’t know how to “open” up a call, gets a lot of rejection, and then decides this isn’t for me. Today I’d like to give you the opening that I have been using with good success. It’s short, to the point, friendly, yet business like.
I find out in a matter of seconds whether the person on the other end of the line is worth spending my time with, and generally I find out quickly if this is a person who is a serious candidate or not.
