I'm planning to start cold calling HVAC businesses, but I want to verify do they typically have a gatekeeper before you reach the decision maker?
For those who have already been selling to HVAC companies: Can you share your real experience? How do you approach the conversation, and what's your strategy for selling them an AI voice receptionist?
I am not a sales person, I am into the Tech always but with time I understand that building is not enough & I have to start doing the outreach - I tried Cold emails & I was not getting the good results
So I shifted towards the cold Calls - did research on how to purchase International Local no., buy the subscription & Tonight i started calling the business !
I did approx 13 Calls tonight first time - it might sound small but yeah for the first time 13 feels too big however every time the receptionist picked the call & said Dr is not available right now - he/she is with the Patient - either they told me to email the Dr or tell her and she will forward the message
So I tried using the Claude method saying that what time is best when doctors are available or other things - but in each time the same response either you email the Dr or tell her she will forward
When I told her - for what I am calling - she will hang up, or remove the no. And even sometimes rude!
I don't have the habit of such things - and it's just 13 calls tonight - expectations were at least 20
So I want your help in this - how u handle such rude, hangup and how you control your brain when it starts reacting so differently - feels bad to myself ?
I know even to close 1 deal - I need at least 200 Dials

I have made an Ai receptionist which is 24/7 & also I have a phone no. Which clients can call directly & talk with that demo
But my current way of getting the clients is the Cold Emails , I have been using Apollo for this sequence & Getting leads emails
Another thing I am planning is to do Cold Calls Directly, but as I live in another country - I will need to buy 19$/month Virtual No. & Then cold calls them
However I am a bit hesitant because I never did a cold call ( I am not an introvert) but I am thinking will this work or not ?
Cold emails I have sent approx 80-100 & no reply I have received.
To the people who are experienced or got some client, can you tell me how much to work on this should I increase cold email volume & Cold calls i should start ? Or am I doing anything wrong here?
