Cold Calling Service

Can anyone recommend a good cold calling company for outsourcing?

Not a large project, maybe 200 calls max in total.

Looking for something more personalized, crucial not to come off as a third party, will act as company rep / extension of our company seeking potential business

Thanks.

do you have permission to call those numbers? Bell franchisees' got fined a huge amount for the cold calls they did.

it's super hard to find a good one at a good price. You get what you pay for. Some started at $8/ hour but accents were thick and pushed too aggressively.

200 calls is enough work for one person for 3-5 days, depending on length of calls. Really is something that could be done internally, regardless of company size.

It's not really worth the cost and hassle for just ~200 calls. I'm not even sure if you can hire a company to do just 200.

Your own company knows your products/services best. But don't focus on making the sale over the phone. Focus on just one objective: getting an appointment, scheduling a phone call, etc. where you can then focus on the sale.

200 calls are enough for one person I guess,it is rather difficult to take more than 200.
