I'm afraid to cold call U.S businesses due to my Nigerian accent. I have cold called them before though but didn't get any result
American women love an accent. Maybe you just got the wrong people!
How many calls did you make? Have you tried following up with an email every time?
Call, Email, Call, Email.
I could probably teach a masterclass on cold calling these days. What you think is your liability is actually your asset.
My mentor taught me to "mind read" the audience. Tell them the worst possible thing they could be thinking before they think it/say it out loud.
Why not have fun with it? "Wait! Don't hang up! I'm not a Nigerian Prince! ... my brother is... but I'm a web designer! I know there's never a good time to talk about getting leads and sales from your website... but is now a halfway decent time?"
