Telemarketing (North America only)

 

Get a skilled team to help explore your business needs and develop opportunities


About this benefit
Countries:North America
Membership: All levels
Cost:Up to US$9,999 (subsidy available)

Telemarketing is not about completing scripts or resolving calls. It's about engaging prospects in conversations that explore their business needs and help develop opportunities. Use this benefit to purchase telemarketing at a discounted price from a skilled team to help you drive results.

Once you specify your target market as part of your telemarketing order, your requirements are matched against D&B, Harte-Hanks, and IBM prospect lists. You can also use IBM, your own, or a combination of these data sources to help you reach the right customer set.

With this efficient way to generate leads, IBM Business Partners have reported strong lead generation rates and a cycle time as low as four weeks before lead results start flowing directly to you!
