Outsourced Appointment Setter Vs. Pay-Per-Appointment?

[hockeyday]

I mean the leads have opted in to be called and expressed interest. Some of the leads still seem pretty cold tho

Any luck finding good off shore setters?

You should be calling them

I have used offshore telemarketers out of the Philippines paying an hourly rate. Some speak great English and others don't so I have them submit a voice recording sharing their experience so I can see how they sound and the ones with decent English, I will schedule a phone interview through Skype.

Ok nice! I've seen at least one company that has appointment setters who will book appointments for you from the leads they generate, and they just charge per appointment.

Would you say it's better to have an appointment setter set appointments with leads you get from various lead vendors, or is it better to have a lead gen company book the appointments directly on your calendar in your opinion?

In my opinion it would be better to have an independent appointment setter that I can micromanage and coach. The big lead gen companies will work with you, but not as closely as a one man operation will

That makes sense.

We had an in-house retired veteran calling for any agent who wanted him to set appt. He would set a ton of appts and was $20 an appt, whether it sold or not and whether they were a no show or not. I have no idea who trained him, but the guy was great.

He'd call any leads we sent him- T65 locator, Mailers, lists, fb, internet, etc

I wish he was still around, he retired.

Seems fair to me to pay $20-30 an appt. and like axe said, a bonus if theyre good.
