Sales-hungry telesales agent

We are looking for a confident home-based telesales agent who can prove themselves in a two-week trial. If you can really deliver the goods, the money is there to be made.

This is a self-employed home-based, full-time position which involves cold calling prospects on the telephone and then setting up appointments on our behalf. We will provide you with the scripts and support to do this job, but a certain amount of tenaciousness is required. You should also be happy working from home on a results-based approach. I would also suggest you have access to a low-cost (or free call) telephone service at home due to the number of calls you will be making per day.

Our product is a highly competitive web design package. We are targeting small businesses with a turnover of less than £250000 pa. We are currently able to offer a new technology grant which represents a saving of 30% to customers against standard prices. Unlike our competitors we do not charge any fees for domain registration or hosting.

We pay a commission of 25% of all closed sales, which currently averages around £108 per deal. You should expect to be generating a minimum of 10 appointments per week, of which we close a very high percentage - around 80%. Our conversion rate is this high because we have honed our calling script and know our market very well. This represents a minimum target of £860 per week. A good Telemarketer may earn more, particularly as our more expensive packages cost in excess of £2K.

You would be allocated one Yellow Pages region to work within, so you will have exclusive access to that territory.

Further down the line there may exist the opportunity to build a sales team in your area.

If you can prove you can source a minimum of 16 qualified leads in two weeks you will win this project. After that, the sky is the limit.
