Maximising the Gains from B2B Appointment Setting

Appointment setting is the fastest way for your company to get a ‘foot in the door’, and for companies who need the support of other businesses to function this is one of the best direct marketing solutions there is. The whole process of b2b however is a menial one and it is for this reason that most businesses outsource the process.

The ground word behind appointment setting

Cold calling is the foundation activity for any b2b appointment setting process. This activity is also coupled with various pre-qualifying activities, the parameters of which are set by your company. These parameters are set according to your business requirements. For example, if you are selling a product to another business you will need to meet the decision maker or at least one of the decision makers of the other business. It will make no sense to meet someone at a manager level. A manager will only point you to the decision maker and you will have to start the pitching process all over again, wasting your precious time and resources. To avoid a scenario like this, one of your pre-qualifying parameters could be - Vice President and above. Other parameters could include the department that the lead works in etc. It is to be noted however, that an appointment setting is merely a qualified prospect and not a guaranteed sale. These are merely leads that are open to the idea of meeting you and do not guarantee the outcome.

Getting what you want

When it comes to appointment setting, to all the ground work for you from calling to fixing an appointment. However, you will need to help them do their jobs well so that you can, in turn, do yours well too. For this reason alone you will need to be very clear on what kind of leads you want an appointment with. In other words, the pre qualifying parameters that you list need to be well thought out. Most call centres in the UK are very good at appointment setting.
