B2B telemarketing

Telemarketing — the skill of king-makers

B2B telemarketingWelcome to www.telemarketingtips.info that's wholly devoted to the subject of telemarketing as used by companies marketing to other businesses.

On this web site we offer many articles containing tips and newfound facts on telemarketing... and little else.

The goal has been to help decision-makers understand telemarketing better and give tools for overcoming the problems associated with the hardships and problems of marketing by phone.

Telemarketing can be extremely efficient and inexpensive if used correctly. Its bad name comes from the consumer sector to which it ill suits in our opinion.

But as a method of acquiring business from other businesses, telemarketing is possibly the best of all marketing avenues.

I'm assuming that you're on this web site because you want to utilise telemarketing within your company. For that purpose, I'll ask you to bear with me a while, go through the information on this page patiently and then choose your article from the directory below.

Thank you. Now the first hurdle on the way to successful telemarketing is that few of us know exactly what "telemarketing" actually IS.

Obvious as it may seem, one needs to DEFINE what one wants in order to maximise the chances of achieving it, right?

So, let's start by examining whether or not you and I mean the same thing with the concept of "telemarketing."

 

Definition of telemarketing

Business-to-business telemarketing is essentially marketing conducted via the medium of the telephone.

"Marketing" in itself is the act of bringing a service or product (or combination thereof) to the intended market or target group and creating a need for it among those we want as clients.

Some people rather indiscriminately call ANY outbound calling "telemarketing" but in reality there are other forms of telephone work which cannot exactly be included in the concept of telemarketing.

Telesales is sales, not marketing. Client-satisfaction interviews conducted by phone are equally not specifically marketing... although both activities are definitely RELATED to telemarketing.

Personally, I would exclude "cold calling" from telemarketing also, specifically if it's executed without a cleverly planned approach AND a unique message.

While such cold calling can produce leads, it is extremely inefficient and can promote a negative image of your company inadvertently.

Telemarketing should be a carefully planned activity whose strategy and tactics are spot-on. It should be effective so that telemarketers succeed and your company secures an edge over the competition.

So, what is the definition of "telemarketing?"

When we speak of B2B telemarketing we mean...

"the act of contacting preselected members of your intended target group either for prospecting or presentation of your services/goods for the purpose of creating interest."

In other words, B2B telemarketing covers prospecting — the act of finding those who are potential buyers and need your services/goods and have the power to decide where their company buys these goods/services — as well as those actions that follow the initial contact if done via a phone.

 

Telemarketing guide for the business-to-business sector

This web site www.telemarketingtips.info aims to act as a guide for businesses engaged in B2B sales of any kind. The main areas of utilization of these telemarketing techniques are

- prospecting by telemarketing
- using telemarketing presentations to qualify prospects
- ensuring the prospect learns the value and unique benefits of your services and/or products
- preparing them for a sales meeting, and, if desired,
- booking sales meetings for your sales expert with maximum time-efficiency so he won't have to PREPARE leads for sales at all.

On top of these subjects, we will also investigate the barriers which impede telemarketing (and traditional telemarketing in particular) from obtaining the expected results both in terms of quality and quantity.

Thank you for visiting our site and enjoy the articles — see the article directory below.
