Sometimes, when we have too much data in front of us, we struggle to see which ones are really pivotal to business growth. “This is where Key Performance Indicators (KPI) come in,” says Andrew Rogers, President and COO at Business.com. “Data, and its proper use, is the single biggest arbiter between business success and failure.

Pay-per-Appointment Telemarketing: 4 things to reflect upon One of the most likely reasons why companies support the pay-per-appointment model of B2B telemarketing is that it’s a financially low-risk option, since they only pay for scheduled appointments set for them. They can clearly see where their money goes to, and so for them it is far more cost-effective compared to traditional packages. The standing question, though, is whether or not this kind of transaction can produce the same quality of appointments, the same approach towards telemarketing, the same follow-up mechanism, and the same impression from prospects. You see, pay-per-appointment contracts aren’t exactly what B2B telemarketing agencies shoot for, as they would rather a conventional-type model. That, itself, can be a factor to consider. If you’re planning to employ this method into your marketing mix, here are some points to ponder on: Is it okay for you that your callers are going to be aggressive? How would you know if appointments are unique to you?

Three Signs Your Customers In Singapore Are Leaving You Doing business in Singapore is never that easy, especially now that information about different companies is more available through the internet. While most of us would assume that B2B lead generation is all about getting new clients into your business (a task usually done in appointment setting), these also have the important task of keeping your current ones interested in your new offerings. And if your business deals with search engine optimization (SEO), this becomes even more challenging. There are at least three signs to watch for. One, the client requests a copy of the contract. Two, the client suddenly becomes nonresponsive. Third, you or the client has changes in organization. Generating sales leads is hard work, so you have to work hard to keep the ones you already have.

Can Singapore’s SEO Providers Innovate Better With Lead Generation? One reason why SEO providers in Singapore are somewhat slow in their innovation process (the standard measure of how good an SEO provider is in adapting) is probably due to the lack of sufficient clients that will fuel the demand for one. What is funny here is that business prospects often will not sign up if they do not see the firm as innovative. These disconnect is the reason for an increase need for lead generation providers specialized for SEO providers. They need professionals that can help SEO services providers with the SEO leads needed in order for their business to flourish. Lead generation and appointment setting work is not new in the Singapore marketplace, what with the variety of mediums of communications used (like email, social media, and telemarketing) but what makes the situation unique will be the firms that need one.

The 4 Things that make up a First-Rate B2B Telemarketer We’ve heard people say that a telemarketing call’s success is 50% chance (i.e. the prospect’s level of need, his availability, his temperament during the call, etc) and 50% skill (telemarketer’s aptitude in appointment setting). That is actually not true. While there are indeed some aspects that are beyond control, a telemarketer’s skill definitely constitutes more than just 50% of the process. Why? Because even in unfavorable circumstances, a good telemarketer can turn things around. A first-rate telemarketer has the ability to turn a “no” into a “yes”, or to educate prospects so that whatever they think may not be “necessary” can turn into something worth looking at after all. What are the 4 qualities that first-rate telemarketers possess? Communication skills – Obviously, one has to have the smarts in talking to people before anything else. Management skills – Not pertaining to employee ranks here. Experience – Yes, experience matters.
