A common misconception
B2B telemarketing is regularly confused with telesales. Telesales is related to selling only. Telemarketing strategies are very different and focus on long-term relationships with beneficial outcomes.
Telemarketing promotes products or service via telephone. Activities can be inbound or outbound, and include lead generation, appointment setting, market research, event promotion, customer service, customer satisfaction, retention and much more…
The art of engagement lives on!
Human interaction is still at the heart of successful business development, with the majority of B2B sales closed only after face to face meetings. This underscores the importance of human interaction and reinforces why telemarketing continues to be an important aspect in creating B2B sales opportunities.
