Telemarketing is a fast and convenient way to build sales into
your business. It is rated as the #1 technique for converting
lists of names and numbers into paying customers, and may serve
as a platform from which you can develop a real rapport with
your client base.
Well-drilled telesales staff will help you increase the amount
your customers spend with you too. Their experience in
cross-selling different products and up-selling add-ons /
upgrades could aid you in bringing in many thousands in
additional revenue...revenue that you may otherwise be
struggling to make from that very same list!
Good telesales staff though are hard to come by. It might take
months of advertising and interviewing to attract the right type
of candidate capable of selling to customers over the phone.
Telesales staff are also an expensive addition to the payroll,
even if they are only employed on a part-time basis.
For a much more cost-effective telemarketing solution a
different approach is required. Welcome to the world of joint
venture partnerships!
Joint Ventures - the Telemarketing Solution
Joint ventures (JVs) are practical business solutions that
enable two or more businesses to co-operate with each other for
mutual financial gain. In terms of a telemarketing solution they
represent a highly efficient way to develop revenue from a call
list with little or no money down.
There are literally hundreds of telemarketing call centres out
there looking for new call campaigns to work on. It is a
competitive market and many call centres are willing to take on
riskier propositions for the sake of securing exclusive rights
to the campaign.
From a JV perspective this is great news! If your call list is
of a good quality and there is a high level of potential profit
per sale in the offing, call centres may be only too happy to
consider accepting a deal where they are paid purely on a
performance basis. You can therefore kick-start your telesales
activity without having to pay a fee.
For JVs where sales calls need to be made you'll need to focus
on delivering your proposal to call centres that offer outbound
telemarketing services. Offshore call centres especially are
worthy of consideration here as they are the ones more likely to
be open to your JV proposal.
TIP: Before approaching an offshore telemarketing firm do check
out their staff training policies. The best offshore call
centres provide their staff with voice training. This enables
them to converse in an appropriate accent and tone to suit your
customers.
Finding Telemarketing Firms
Locating a suitable telemarketing firm is easier than many
people might think. All you've got to do is make a simple search
on the Internet. On the popular search engines use search terms
like "outbound telemarketing" and "telemarketing campaign" to
