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.

Internet Lead Follow Up

Most businesses have a public website so that their clients and potential clients have a place to go to learn more about what the business does and how they can help you, or so that you can place an online order, etc. Most times the website also includes a contact us form, so that a potential client can send an inquiry to the business. Once the inquiry has been received someone from the sales staff will follow up with the prospective client.

The challenge posed is that if the inquiry comes through when the sales staff is not available, or when the person who manages the emails is not available the lead could sit there for some time waiting to be followed up on. With that in mind TeleDirect provides a type of click to call functionality using Work The Lead. You can send these leads to TeleDirect as they come in, and the Customer Service Representatives will receive the lead, contact the perspective client and go through appointment setting with your prospect. The script the CSR's use can also include additional information that may be valuable to your sales staff, but which the caller may not have been willing to provide on the contact form.

If you would like to see a demonstration of how this works and can help you turn your leads into sales, please contact us directly at: 800-776-1081 or by email at: sales@teledirect.com.
