Cold Recruiting:  You come into contact with people everywhere you go that may know others that can help your business.  Simply ask them, “Are you keeping your career options open?”, or, “Do you know of any non-profits that could use some help fund-raising?”.  Gather their contact information and call or email them at a later time.

Don’t become an Cold Market “ATTACK RECRUITER.”

Give your cold prospect room to breathe, and let a rapport start to develop a little. If the prospect is cold to the idea, give it some time. Hold more conversations. The desire to help may be there, but give it time to grow and be revealed. A lot of times, it won’t happen immediately, due to the initial lack of any interest on the prospects part, or bad experiences with others.

Wait till the second conversation to bring up your desire to seek them for your business, or who they might know.

This is only professional, and you are giving the relationship time to solidify and then mature into a real possible friendship.

If you jump the gun too quick in Cold Market recruiting, you will end up shooting yourself in the foot.
