"The number one thing buyers dislike about salespeople is their lack of preparation. Take The Cold Out of Cold Calling is a manifesto for salespeople who want to connect rather than merely contact prospects. It is amazingly thorough. You'll have an unfair advantage over your competitors as soon as you start applying this powerful information. Take the Cold Out of Cold Calling grabs you by the fingers and shows you why and how to search the Internet quickly. Sam tells you how to access incredible amounts of information about prospects or customers in just minutes. Then (and this is the brilliant part) Sam guides you through a step-by-step process for converting this information into a powerful approach to prospects and customers. You will never talk to a stranger again. You will know everyone you call and they will know you want to add value."

For you this is a no nonsense Web Research book as evidenced by the subtitle - Web Search Secrets. This book is great for students, educators, CEOs, CFOs, COOs and all other business professionals. I burned through the book in two sittings and was astonished at how much more search power is just a few more clicks away from the typical Google search. I thought I had finished a large research project before reading the book and with using just a few of Sam's secrets I increased the amount of meaningful data to consider by more than 50 percent."

"I have actually attended two of Sam's seminars, and I'm struck by the amount of new information included in the second. It's clear that Sam Richter is at the leading edge of client research and preparation for today's consultative sales process. Quite simply this book is a thorough doctrine for accessing, sorting and applying the massive amount of information available on the web today for the purpose of preparing and connecting to people. How you might use that information in your role as a sales and marketing professional, a customer service leader or simply as someone who understands the important of bringing value to business relationships isn't as important as the ability to differentiate yourself in a competitive marketplace through well-timed information. Credibility isn't what you know about your business. It's what you know about your customer's business. And my belief is that this book is the platinum standard (hope your appreciate the inference, Sam) for establishing credibility with your customers. It's an absolute must have."

"Recently I attended one of Sam Richter's Seminars on "Take the Cold out of Cold Calling" and found it unbelievable. In the book he talks about the "emotional" ride of the sales call and how people buy from people they like. A large portion of the book is dedicated to the techniques of how to use the internet to find/get/use the information that's out there. I have reached for this book just about every other day to get new ways of finding the information and how to dig deeper into the search engines on the internet. This is a must have book for any and all sales people. "

There is no reason to be nervous when you feel you have a reason to call...and that makes the call warm. I tried many of his tips on getting information quicker and they all worked! I actually researched a company that I was calling on, found the most recent press release, which revealed that my current contact had RETIRED!!!! It pays to do your research to avoid looking stupid."

​

"I recently bought this book because as a small business owner for a Leadership Development consulting firm, I have done a lot of cold calling over the last several years to build my business. Any way I could research a company before I called, I did. Alas, I was woefully inadequate at searching the web. What Mr. Richter does is show you how to be more efficient with your time (crucial with a small business owner or any sales team) and help you 'uncover' the gems of information that will help you talk to decision makers with more confidence. This helps you cut to the chase of what is most important, and get their attention right away -- creating a more important conversation and increasing the likelihood of obtaining business. I own a large business library -- but this is the only book that is sitting on my desk, dog-eared and constantly referenced. Do yourself a favor and get your own copy. Get a copy for each of your sales buddies. Get a copy for any small business owner you know. Spread the word. This book is a toolkit, not a book of concepts to kick around and debate. I want to personally thank Mr. Richter for writing something that I consider an investment in my future!"
David Sawtelle, President
ORCHA, Orchestrate

​

"What a great book! Sam Richter provides incredible resources on the web to research companies, products, industries, and people. I keep his book on the corner of my desk and reference often. On his web site, Sam provides a customized web toolbar that puts his recommended resources at your fingertips. I was absolutely amazed at how much information you can find for free! You won't be disappointed by this book!"

"This is a great book. My best friend's wife (46 years old) had a mild stroke and remained in the ICU for a number of weeks. Thankfully, she did not suffer any paralysis or memory damage, but was still in serious danger of another stroke. She was diagnosed with a very rare condition and the doctors were having problems stabilizing her brain activity. One of my tasks was to help find research doctors with extensive research on her condition and get their contact information. I spent numerous hours performing this research and had it not been for information learned in this book, I would not have been 5% as successful. I was able to get unpublished contact information from specialists around the world, including names, addresses, and phone numbers. We contacted a number of the doctors and ultimately, one of the doctors recommended a change in her medication, which finally stabilized her brain activity. I could not be more thankful to Mr. Richter and his book."
Kent Dombal

​

​

"Sam's book is a great resource for anyone that looks for information, whether for business or pleasure. If you do nothing but read the "Sam Tips" in the margins, you'll get more than your money's worth.....and the "Quick Reference Guide" is the frosting on the cake."
Sam Hahs

​

​

"I am an Account Executive for a software company that is totally dedicated to Payments Application Software for the financial community. Finding really good information on these companies can be quite hard and time consuming. Sam's book is filled with many valuable tools. I would like to take this time to say Thank You, Sam, for writing this book. Your book has helped me be more prepared, knowledgeable, and efficient. I would recommend it to anyone and I am looking forward to reading more."
Joshua Cole

​

​

"Sam's book was given to me by a friend. I read half of it and put it down, grabbed my car keys and went to purchase my own copy. I then came home and literally finished the rest of the book in one sitting. Now it is not a book that you can just stick on your bookshelf. I will refer to it when I can not remember something. Though after reading the book and installing Sam's warm call tool bar in which he referred to in the book I have learned how to turn ordinary meetings into warm call meetings. It is no longer cold calling when you are already warm going into the meeting. The client may not know you are going in warm but they surely will after you start interacting. I would highly recommend the book to anybody in the sales, marketing or even out of a job marketing. Truly a must read and must own."
Joel Feder
