Referral To "results Fast" Telemarketing Company

Posted by telemoxie on 12/5/2006 at 5:23 PM ET 500 Points
I've taken on a small telemarketing pilot project with a fellow who is in a big hurry. He's looking to sign a couple dozen clients in the next few weeks... and wants my help.

Quite candidly, immediate miracles are not my expertise. My preference is for long-term programs to build awareness and maximize market share over time - and I'm concerned that I may not be the best fit for this fellow.

This would be a small project (around $1,000) for completion in the first few weeks of December. The client is a professional services firm. Do you know anyone who would be interested in this sort of work? Thanks in advance.

    Telemoxie:

    Your philosophy is absolutely correct -- it is best to have a long-term program to build awareness and maximize share over time.

    It's a must that you manage your client's expectations, and if you don't see a fit, then you have to end the relationship. I have to do that all the time -- clients are expecting to see an instant flow of traffic and sales when we complete an article submission. Can it happen, yes -- I've helped best selling author Mark Hyman MD move to the #2 spot on the NY Times Best Seller List, and helped instant photo album creator and distributor Lesley Mattos triple her traffic with just 1 submission, but it does not always happen right away.

    Take a look at my site: {URL deleted by staff] and let me know if you believe that your clients can benefit from this service. We give $50 for every new clients, and $100 for every client's 2nd article etc.

    Good Luck,
