One marketing school of thought advocates the use of hard-sell tactics to hit sales targets and to ensure better ROIs. This straightforward strategy might have worked in the past, but things are now heading towards more personalization. This makes this strategy ineffective for garnering lead and sales in today’s markets.
This paradigm also applies to B2B telemarketing. The use of a call script is not considered a prerequisite anymore. In fact, experienced B2B telemarketers now urge users to prefer personalised conversations and throw away scripts to gain desirable ROIs from their campaigns.
Let’s take a look at some of the reasons why businesses should throw away the call scripts for their outbound marketing endeavors.
Make it targeted and personal
With a script in hand, even gifted and experienced B2B telemarketers can’t achieve the level of personalisation they need in a conversation. It is important to understand that even different ventures within the same niche might have different needs and objectives.
Moreover, every decision-maker is different from the other. This means a productive business to business telemarketing conversation must be personalised, this won’t happen when the telemarketing team is confined to a certain script. There is no harm in having a draft of important points to be discussed in the conversations. Nonetheless, telemarketers should be allowed to have a personalised conversation with prospective clients to come up with unique pitches pertaining to different business operations.
Tapping Into Emotional Quotient
The truth of the matter is every business decision is made on the basis of ‘gut feel’ as well as facts.
In other words, emotions can’t be entirely ruled out from business decision-making. This phenomenon actually provides B2B telemarketing personnel some room to garner results in their favor. They do this by giving a personal touch to their conversations. A personalised conversation can result in trust building and emotional contact that is not usually possible through scripted calls.
Nurturing a Sales Lead
No result-yielding B2B telemarketing contact initiates and ends on a single call. In other words, experienced B2B telemarketers have to call their prospects multiple times. And we all know that the second call only happens if the first call ends on a good note. Experienced B2B telemarketers make this possible by using good personalisation tactics in their conversations.
Relevant, clean and up-to-date B2B data facilitates the process of personalisation and makes it easier for businesses to leave the confinement of a script. The Lead Generation Company ensures a high contact rate through exceptional data.
