Make sure battery connections are tight and corrosion free, load test the battery at a cycle shop. If battery tests OK, clean starter wiring and connections, as well as solenoid.

The problem is one or more of five things, weak battery, corroded cables, faulty solenoid, faulty starter, bad starter switch. Always use a Battery Tender to keep the battery at full power.

Are we talking about starter action is slow or weak when cranking or is it that is just doesn't want to start at all when engine is cold? If it is starter action problem then I agree with heftylefty.
