Management over Remote, Outsourced Employees: A Lead Generation Point A decade ago, only big businesses had the financial resources to outsource their marketing operations to a lead generation services company. Now, however, even small businesses have gathered enough guts and have felt that need to delegate some of their tasks to experts, sometimes even to overseas firms. Outsourcing has become a major part of company growth for those who want to focus on the more important functions of running a business. Especially now that B2B lead generation has expanded to a wider array of channels, from social media, search and traditional, the need for more human resources has never been greater.

Outsourced lead generation services providers usually possess the skills and tools needed for excellent marketing, but the fact that they are operating remotely can pose a feeling of insecurity for some business bosses. 1.

Why Outsource Your Telemarketing Campaign? Advertising about your company is one thing, but converting that interest into actually sales leads is something that you should consider as well. That is why you need to use some effective marketing tools to support your campaign. Now, lead generation is a task that should not be taken lightly when it comes to advertising and marketing. While it is understandable that you want to personally handle the task of generating B2B leads, you have to admit that this is a task that may be beyond your skills. Yes, you will hear a lot of critics saying that outsourcing is not a good idea, that it will drain your company’s resources, that the business leads produced are not good, that you might get conned by fraudulent firms, among other things.

Going beyond seller/buyer – you need to build a stronger relationship with your prospects, that is why you should extend every effort to engage them in meaningful conversations, ask them about their family, what they do during their free time (if that is possible). It is all about managing, you see.

Understand your Singapore Market by Dissecting It We in the B2B marketing industry are fond of throwing around metaphors to describe how ferocious and contested it is to engage our target markets. But as executives in the IT services sector see their market as a battlefield of technical jargon and healthcare marketers see their arena as a merciless valley of risks, these metaphors are actually far from what their markets really are: as organisms. Back in high school, our biology classes involved capturing an animal and dissecting it for the purpose of having a better look at its anatomical structure and its importance to the animal’s survival. Moral considerations aside (after all, we’re dealing with metaphors here), dissecting a frog enables us to understand not just the mechanisms that allow it to jump very long distances, but also its biological make up in relation to its surroundings. We can use such information in, say, creating artificial ecosystems that precisely mimic its natural home. But where does marketing fit in all this?
