Both - Some telemarketing companies offer both (business is tough so they will tackle anything).
![Page 7: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Most of these telemarketing companies are small, with less than 10 staff. Most are set up by ex telemarketers that
have decided to go it alone and set up businesses for themselves.

Any new business has three objectives:

To offer a good service

To generate revenue
![Page 12: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Any new telemarketing company needs to generate lots of profit in order to afford staff costs, rent costs, expenditures and additional things (such as houses, cars, holiday's etc.)
that the owner requires. All this needs to be taken into account when discussing the price of the campaign.

Telemarketing Charging Ranges
![Page 14: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
There are a few different charging models to calling, most companies conform to per day, but there are other
structures.
![Page 15: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Per Day
![Page 16: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Calling companies range from freelancers that offer a 1 man band approach to lead generation and may charge £150 per day (plus VAT @ 20%) up to larger established
agencies that charge £600 per day (plus VAT) and maybe a setup fee.
![Page 17: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Per Month
![Page 18: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Some calling companies charge a monthly retainer for ongoing calling which could be £1,000 per month (plus
VAT) up to £6,000 per month (plus VAT) for more targeted work or using larger numbers of staff.
![Page 19: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Per Call
![Page 20: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Smaller calling companies offer a cost per call route (maybe 50p + VAT) which is a bit more flexible to smaller businesses. Calls that are not connected are not normally charged, so smaller businesses can see and track progress
a lot closer to assess how results are looking.
![Page 21: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Generally the smaller the calling business, the cheaper they are, as they have less overheads. This could mean less
experience in telemarketing, but could mean a more personalised service.

Why Telemarketing Costs Vary
![Page 23: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
All calling companies have different charging structures based on what they feel they can get away with. This is the
nature of sales, cost is not about the value, but what the seller can get away with. Similar to petrol prices these days, garages charge £1.40 per liter because people are
happy to pay that. For a days calling, is people are happy to pay £400 and feel they are getting value for it, then that
is what would be charged (maybe a little more).
![Page 24: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The most popular form of charging for calling is a day rate (sometimes a monthly rate) for both inbound and outbound calling on the basis that it can be easily
invoiced.
![Page 25: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Most telemarketing agencies that are new will start on a lower day rate (say £150 + VAT) and then increase it once
they have a regular number of customers.

Tips For Negotiating Costs And Rates
![Page 27: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
One of the most important factors to consider during 2012 is results, cold calling and appointment making this year will be difficult and unfortunately the customer may be
stuck with a big bill for calling work.
![Page 28: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Work is slow and many businesses are reluctant to buy without an absolute need; therefore pushing for sort of
results based work or guarantees is wise.
![Page 29: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Ask for guarantees. Many telemarketing agencies will shy away from results based calling; however times are
changing and some sort of guarantees are needed to avoid high day rates and no results.
![Page 30: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Shop around different agencies, there are lots of calling companies around and all are hungry for business.
![Page 31: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Ask for a trial before committing to a contract. Many agencies now offer 2-3 days of free calling to prove their
worth and free trails are quite common.
![Page 32: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Times are hard for all businesses and 2012 will be a make of break year for a lot of companies across many industries
(retail, engineering, medical etc.) due to changing economics, government cutbacks and lower overseas
prices.
![Page 33: The Costs Of Telemarketing](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020720/54826a98b4af9f00068b460a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
For UK businesses, finding a reliable telemarketing company that can produce results is important; for calling companies, the need to go the extra mile and put in the
extra work to satisfy UK companies is necessary.
