Selling security camera systems can be pretty tough, especially starting out. Not giving up though!

Cold drop-ins are eating up a ton of my time and have had very little success.
My cold dropins have lead to some follow ups, but they seem to lead to "Yea, not now, come back in a month or so"
Cold calls- Phone book?? I have a system already, voicemails left, nothing.
Targeted leads (Newly registered, brand new businesses- Cold Calls) Dry... Wrong number/fax/no voicemail
Registered address is residential. They seem fake in a way. On top of that, not enough leads! I go through all of them in a half hour! (and that was a 2 weeks worth list)
Referrals- One of my clients say they know a person that needs a system, but waiting until they open their location. Aside from that, don;t have much of a referral base to work with.

I have been paying for leads from 2 different sites and none have been successful and I just do not get enough leads
I'd like to make more targeted cold calls.

Need some here :/
