While we rarely cover this subject at VSL, there have to be few things in business more frustrating than the caller failing to reach you – when they want to phone an important order with your organisation for example.
So, here is a quick checklist to ensure you're not 'caught short' when it comes to people needing to reach you. Do you have voicemail set up on all your phones? If not, why not for the calle, imagine you have reached the mobile operator or phone companies automated greeting instead of your own voice (or at least a voice that tells the caller whose phone they've reached). How alienated does that make you feel? Carefully recorded voicemail shows you care a bit more

This blog is to inform you that Mr Simon Loveley no longer has any association with Virtual Sales Limited.
Under the terms of our agreement Simon Loveley was allowed to VSL branding, invoice look and feel, contracts etc in return for a per cent of his revenue which enabled him to get off to a quick start and establish himself in Australia with all our years of experience behind him. He quickly established himself by utilising the VSL brand and acquired telemarketing clients.

Picture the scene: You've just had a few succesful days at an expo or a trade show ; Plenty of enquiries, business cards, competition entries and contacts made. You're on a roll and ready to get down to picking up the phone and specifying the next step with your new aquaintances.
As you walk into the office on Monday morning, your enthusiasm for strengthening ties with new contacts begins to evaporate: your email inbox is overflowing, reports sit on your desk to read and it seems everyone wants a piece of you. Here's where you must decide to prioritize or lose the chance to work with some of the new contacts: Lose sales, lose market share, lose money invested in the expo/trade show.

What stops you researching your target market by phone?
- Perhaps you're uncertain which questions to ask.
- Perhaps you think you already know exactly what your target audience is thinking and feeling.
- Or perhaps you're just frightened of using the phone.
Have no fear, these are common reactions.

In our last post we explained:
If you’re good at speaking to customers about your products and services, but are lacking interest or contact with customers, you need help with Telemarketing.
If you’re great at attracting potential customers, but find it difficult to convert all that potential into business, you need help with Telesales.
Of course, both telemarketing and telesales services can be combined and carried out by the same company, employing them to work strategically as a joint team. One service can generate a pool of potential leads, whilst the other turns those leads into sales. The Telemarketers set up the appointment, the Telesales staff close the deal.
