Cold calling?



what i have to say with new customers when i cold call them ?
how can i start to call with new customers i have photography
business and i have spent like 3ooo$ on online directories like yellowpages etc. im event & wedding photographer
So I need some advice on how to market my service without spending more money. And please dont tell me to put up cards in grocery stores because i might get one call and that would just cover my gas drivin around. I need some real expertise here, some creativity on how to get one call every day atleast. Any ideas
thanks

I am facing the same situation as you ( I am floral designer).
What you can do with little or no money:

- post cards with a picture of a wedding, your contact info, web site at floral shop, brides shop, spas, etc. You can have a partnership with them- they give you the bride information for you to call and you gave them a comission. So..YOU call the bride

- See if you have a way to get the list for upcoming marriages ( I think you can have that from a broker). Again you call them

- Leave your contact at churches and or ask them if they can advertise your business in any place

- Join as many networking groups as possible

- Put an ad everyday at craigslist and other sites


Good luck!

I have advised many photographic accounts.
1.Contact every florist in your area and give them your card.
Offer them a small bonus if you get a job from them. Every wedding needs flowers.
2. Do the same for the local bakeries. They also need cakes.
3. Banquet or catering places. Ditto.
4. Now you have the idea. Any large resorts that also host weddings are good too.
Good luck. Hope that helps.
