What this scenario is for
Cold Call sessions simulate the first few minutes of an unplanned outbound call — getting past a gatekeeper, earning a few seconds of attention from a decision-maker, and handling early objections before you’ve built any rapport.Personas
You’ll choose from personas representing different gatekeepers and decision-makers, each with a personality trait (for example, brusque and time-pressed, or open and curious) that shapes how hard the conversation will push back.Tips for this scenario
- Lead with a clear, specific reason for the call — vague openers get you screened out fastest.
- Expect to be interrupted. Practice recovering your point in one sentence.
- Try the same persona with a different personality trait to see how your opener holds up under more resistance.
