Today I\u2019m answering an awesome question from Joe Park on Facebook: \u201cMike, how do you overcome your fears when cold calling?\u201d \u2014 Great question, Joe. Real talk \u2014 cold calling can feel scary, but it\u2019s one of the most powerful tools you can use to grow your real estate business and hustle smarter.\n\nChamp, I\u2019ve been an entrepreneur since 9th grade in high school and a real estate investor since 2006. And all that time, I\u2019ve never borrowed money from a sticky banker or held a r\u00e9sum\u00e9 job. Today\u2019s session\u2014today\u2019s lesson\u2014is about conquering your fears and taking massive action, especially when it comes to cold calling and sales hustle.\n\n1. Why Cold Calling Is A Game-Changer (And Why Mindset Matters)\nCold calling doesn\u2019t cost much, and if done right, it can generate a serious return on investment. But here\u2019s the key \u2014 if you pick up that phone thinking it won\u2019t work, or that you\u2019re going to fail, guess what? You probably will. Your mindset drives your results.\n\nIf you\u2019re feeling resistance or negative thoughts about cold calling, my advice is simple: don\u2019t do it. Focus on a strategy that fits your style and that you can confidently execute. However, if you\u2019re open to trying, even if you\u2019re scared, you\u2019re already on the right path.\n\n2. It\u2019s Okay To Have Fear \u2014 But Don\u2019t Let It Stop You\nI want you to hear this loud and clear \u2014 fear is natural. It\u2019s okay to be scared or unsure, especially when you\u2019re new. When I first started, I had zero scripts, no YouTube tutorials, and a lot of junk info thrown at me. But I did one thing: I picked up the phone and started calling.\n\nYou won\u2019t know what to say at first, and yes, you will get rejected a lot. But the only way to overcome fear is by action. You can\u2019t think your way out of it. You\u2019ve got to DO.\n\n3. My Personal Story: How I Learned To Hustle Through Sales\nLet me give you an example from my early days in high school. I worked as a personal trainer at 24 Hour Fitness. My job wasn\u2019t to find customers \u2014 but I wasn\u2019t the typical \u201cA-type\u201d seller. So I got creative: I printed flyers on my own dime (I was broke in high school!) and put them in local apartments around the gym.\n\nPeople started coming in. My gym manager noticed. Not everyone could afford personal training, but some did, and that was my foot in the door.\n\nWhat this taught me? If you want something, you have to take unconventional action. You might have to work outside your job description, and you may even have to work for free at first \u2014 but that hustle pays off.\n\n4. Why You MUST Embrace Failure and Pivot\nWhen you start cold calling, you WILL fail \u2014 a lot. You\u2019ll hear \u201cno\u201d more than you hear \u201cyes.\u201d That\u2019s normal, and it\u2019s part of the process. What separates the winners from the quitters is the ability to learn and pivot.\n\nEvery rejection is a chance to improve your script, your tone, your approach. Keep adjusting until you get better \u2014 until the sellers actually listen and want to talk.\n\n5. How To Start Cold Calling \u2014 Practical Tips\nStart your calls fresh in the morning when you have the most energy.\nDedicate consistent time daily \u2014 better to cold call 30 minutes a day for 5 days than 5 hours in one day once a month.\nDon\u2019t expect to close a deal with just 20 calls. Realistically, it could take 500 or 1,000 calls before you get serious leads and deals.\nSet realistic expectations, but keep your energy and hustle high.\n6. Final Thoughts \u2014 The Hustle Mindset\nIf you want to win in real estate or any business, you have to be willing to face fear, get uncomfortable, and take massive action. Cold calling isn\u2019t glamorous, but it\u2019s effective. If you think you can do it \u2014 you\u2019re on the right path. If you don\u2019t think you can \u2014 find a method you DO believe in and go all in.\n\nPRODUCT PLUGS\nBefore I close, let me share two powerful tools I designed to help you hustle smarter and overcome mental blocks:<\/span><br><\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","_wp_convertkit_post_meta":{"form":"-1","landing_page":"0","tag":"0","restrict_content":"0"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4674","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cold-calling"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4674","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4674"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4674\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4677,"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4674\/revisions\/4677"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4674"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4674"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/myrealestatedojo.com\/subto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4674"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
