Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1

Isn't telemarketing outdated now?

Answer

Despite the birth of the digital world and the rise of social media and other new marketing platforms, telemarketing still remains a pillar of generating new business for one undisputable reason - the quickest way to start a conversation is to pick up the phone! So while the old ways of telemarketing are long gone, where companies would throw as much mud at a wall as they could to see what stuck, telemarketing in today's business world is all about starting conversations with the relevant people, providing value, building relationships, and nurturing leads towards conversion.

Question 2

How is Inspired's campaign data sourced?

Answer

Our data lists are only obtained from trusted, regulation compliant data houses. We have multiple suppliers that we use depending on the industry that is being targeted. All of our suppliers have strict processes to ensure data protection and privacy compliance. If you would like to know more about our data sources, please fill out our contact form.

Question 3

Can I provide my own data for my campaign?

Answer

If you have your own data list for us to call, fantastic! We do ask that you ensure that any data that you provide is regulation compliant so that any and all campaigns that we carry out on your behalf are done so lawfully and ethically. This not only protects us, but helps to protect your business' reputation and trustworthiness in the eyes of your prospective and existing customers.

Question 4

Does Inspired work on a cost-per-lead basis or a daily rate?

Answer

At Inspired, all of our campaigns are done on a daily rate. While the cost-per-lead model works from some agencies, because we strive for quality and to provide you with nothing but the best opportunities, this model doesn't work with our campaigns. When we generate leads, they are exclusive to that campaign and the specific client, whereas with cost-per-lead telemarketing, leads are typically offered to multiple businesses who then have to compete for the opportunity. Our daily rate covers absolutely everything, from our agent's time on the phone and data acquisition, to software costs and even email marketing send-outs that are included in your campaign. Everything comes under one price so that there are no nasty surprises!

Question 5

Does Inspired use telemarketing scripts?

Answer

Unless for initial training purposes, we are strong believers that scripts detract the ability to hold flexible conversations with a prospect. Instead, our team use 'campaign guides' which contain important information that they might need e.g. potential objections and rebuttals, questions they need to ask and information they need to gather, as well as information about your business and a rough pitch that they can use as a guide. We do this to give our agents the flexibility to find a pitch that works for them and their own unqiue personalities, while still mirroring your brand's values and ethos.

Question 6

Does Inspired work in the office or from home?

Answer

At Inspired, we work in a flexible, hybrid working environment. While we predominantly work from our office based in Fareham (just outside of Portsmouth), we give our agents the ability to work from home should the circumstances see fit.

Question 7

What can you guartantee?

Answer

While we can't give any guarantees on campaign results, what what can guarantee is complete honesty, transparency, experience and flexibility when it comes to your campaign.
What's more is that we will never take on a campaign that we feel we couldn't deliver on, because if you don't succeed, neither do we.
