Work The Lead Tips & Tricks V.3

Using Clones Campaigns:

Work The Lead has a variety of different campaigns that you can use to support your business. Call My Leads which provides a "click to call" functionality for Internet leads that you would send to us. Chat campaigns which allow you to have 24/7 chat capability on your public website. Along with our inbound campaigns, we also provide a way for you to mirror your inbound campaign.

This is called a cloned campaign. A clone is used for toll free number sourcing. If you are planning to run television, radio or any other kind of marketing where knowing the exact source is important, then you would use our cloned campaigns. Setting up a cloned campaign takes about a minute, and once done you will have a live toll free number that rings directly into your account with TeleDirect.

Because clones can be setup so quickly, this also means that you do not need to keep a large bank of numbers set aside for your media partners. When a media partner requests a new number, you log in to your account with TeleDirect and provide them one very quickly.

If you are interested in learning more about our different campaign types and how you can use our service please email us at sales@teledirect.com or attend one of our upcoming webinars.

Simple Pricing

One of the major factors in outsourcing is pricing. Different companies have different pricing structure making it difficult to compare. Monthly base, setup costs and overage charges are just to name some. After you determine what your monthly cost for using a service is, you then need to add a per minute rate for the usage. The low per minute rates used by some companies can be deceiving. One of the advantages built into TeleDirect's pricing is its transparency. There is only one simple price to look for; the per minute rate. The pricing structure is pay as you go pricing. There is no other cost to look at. You know what you are paying for the price per minute; there is no calculating or surprises.

Outsourcing: Vendor Transparency

One of the biggest concerns we hear over and over again from potential clients is the concern they have regarding their vendors and how the vendors are handling the part of the job they are trusted with. At TeleDirect we have always encouraged our clients to make the time to visit the call center so that they can see how the call center operates and get a good grasp on how our business is run, as well as how their calls are handled.

With that in mind TeleDirect has taken the idea of a client visiting to view our operations to another level. When you sign up with TeleDirect, you are provided an online account, the online account shows you all of the information we have taken on behalf of your business, it also gives each client access to the script that the Customer Service Representatives are using on your behalf. Along with the script and call data that each client is able to see, clients also have the option to turn on call recording. When a client has call recording, they are able to hear the calls as each CSR completes the call. At TeleDirect we encourage our clients to listen to their calls, so that they can work closely with TeleDirect to make the Moment of Truth, which is the first few minutes any potential clients spends with your business, as successful as possible.

Along with each clients online account and their potential access to call recording, each client is also invited to attend one of our Operational webinars. The Operational webinars give the client a glimpse of the software that we have designed at Teledirect to ensure that we are providing the best service possible to each of our clients. If you would like to attend an Operational webinar, please email us at: sales@teledirect.com or subscribe to this blog for upcoming dates and times.
