Does cold-calling (targeted fit prospects) work in Private Banking?

Hi Monkeys,

Does cold-calling work in Private Banking, specifically calling on individuals with $20+ million in net worth? How many of you have actually been successful using cold outreach as one of your primary sources of new business? Some say they live by it while others say it does not work.

Would appreciate your feedback on this.
