Most new sales people go cold at the thought of appointment setting and picking up the telephone.
Here, Andy Dickens of Sussex based telemarketing agency Virtual Sales Limited, gives a few handy tips to take away the fear:-
- Before you start your appointment setting campaign you need to firstly document your value proposition and why the target audience will be interested. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that everyone out there will be interested in what you have to sell – you will only be disappointed! List out all your key features and benefits and if you can do a competitive matrix to articulate your product/solution’s strengths and weaknesses.
