Ten Situations to Avoid as You Convert from Manual to Computerized Telemarketing
Article Abstract:
Installing a micro-based telemarketing system will almost guarantee dramatic increases in sales and better customer relations. Employee morale also increases. Ten steps can be taken to insure that the purchase of equipment to convert a selling program will be successful. Create a system that meets needs, don't leave the sales force in the dark during conversion and utilize the company mainframe if at all possible. It is also important to have adequate security for the system, prepare genuinely personal letters to customers, mix marketing programs and to not abandon proper sequencing strategy. Finally, don't opt for desktop hardware and don't drown in data. Most importantly, take the proper amount of time to automate.
