First, the number one rule: Don't call!
According to the "Marketing and Technology Survey," from Three Deep Marketing, conducted with support from Marketing Sherpa, marketers were adamant about not wanting to be pitched in person or on the phone. 70.9% of the respondents said 'No phone!" and most didn't want a face-to-face meeting, either.
Today, most marketers prefer Web-based presentations and pitches. Links to a Web site and e-mail information were favored.
