I will give you an experience that I have had with "calling" people. First of all I had paid for these telephone leads from a company, so I was always under the assumption that they were interested in a business. This was not even true for supposed paid leads. So once I began speaking with them I would always ask if they had inquired about having a home based business from home for themselves. A majority of these leads were not interested, but there were a few. I actually have had several long standing PSA's from those calls.
So my point is that just picking up a phone book with nothing to indicate that the person would be interested, in my opinion would be a lot of wasted time for you. I would either buy the leads to phone people (because it is targeted to those that want to be in business and just don't know which company yet) or spend time in advertising by putting your own information for people to come to you, that is time better spent.
