Hi there. Everybody felt the same way the first time they did that. I was so scared to death when I made my very first phone call to my buyers considering the
fact that I don't speak good english when you listen to me talking. I tried my best to overcome it. You can do it! Blessings to all. LA
Everytime you repeat the words "I CAN DO IT" with conviction, you cancel or override your fear and increase your confidence. By repeating this affirmation over and over, you can eventually build your courage and confidence to the point where you are unafraid. -Brian Tracy-
Honestly, just pick up the phone and start calling. I felt the same way, but now I've made so many calls to sellers and realtors it's not a big deal anymore. Be sure you've done your homework and know what you are talking about. If they ask you a question and you're not sure, just say, "I'm not exactly sure but let me ask my business associate and I will get back to you with the answer ASAP."
Just know that's it ok to mess up and you'll get better at it with time like any other new task you start doing. But the more calls you make, the more natural it will become. It's part of the job, so just do it!!
Good luck

As Tracy stated, we've all been there.
Sellers aren't too be feared. Just remember they want to Sell and you can help. That's the posture you should have.
You should start by acquiring a Seller Information Sheet. It will guide you through some basic questions.
You aren't trying to make a deal over the phone you are just building rapport and gathering info on the property and to find out the sellers motivation for selling. You then set appointment to view the property.
Very seldom do seller's ask questions that you can't answer as you are in control of the conversation with the Information Sheet.
I can email you a copy if you like just shoot me your email address via private message.
Just Do It!

One of my very first calls to a real estate agent back in 1995, paid me $37K seven years later.
I was Scared Stiff all the way to the bank!
Hope That Helps!

look for a thread by jbtoggs- he actually invited anyone to listen in to his live conversations with prospective clients...
if not, you can try this: have a script with questions/information on properties ready; if you're well-prepared you will do fine. If there is something you don't know, don't try to bluff; be honest, tell them that you don't have the answer right now but you will get back to them with the information, then do it.
Wishing you success,
