“GSA Marketing worked with us on a test campaign to assess the viability of an outbound sales function in what is a relatively niche sector (outdoor learning residential breaks for Special Educational Needs schools) for our centre in the Lake District. The target market was Teachers or Special Needs Coordinators within schools and colleges, with us providing contact details, albeit un-validated, from our existing database – a combination of organisations who had enquired but never visited, or lapsed. We asked them to pitch for our business from a shortlist of potential suppliers and we chose them due to the bespoke attention they paid to our enquiry, and once selected were very pleased with the personal attention they gave us at a senior level. Setting up the campaign with them was very straightforward and we were impressed by the level of reporting through the campaign and the quality of the calls made by their staff, with each call being recorded. Warm leads were passed to us to follow-up and the quality of the contact information supplied very good. The nature of our business is that 1st contact to booking is usually relatively long, but we were delighted that the month long… Justin Farnan, Business Manager (Sales and Marketing) Lake District Calvert Trust
"IP Solutions uses outbound calling as one of its main routes to market. Our senior sales team are consultative by nature and have a wealth of experience. However, lead generation via the phone was a discipline where we felt some polishing of techniques would be useful. We therefore asked Jonathan to come in and run a session for our sales guys. Faced with this slightly unusual requirement, Jonathan tailored a course based on a pre-course day at our office listening to the team and understanding their needs. The resulting course was interactive, fast-paced and well executed. It was enjoyed by the whole team. They've subsequently been able to put into practice the techniques Jonathan provided that supplement their strengths in providing IP Solutions services to prospective clients. We'd recommend Jonathan to any company looking for a tailored course for their requirements." Jeremy Langley Chief Marketing Officer, IP Solutions
"I would happily recommend the team at GSA Business Development. We appointed GSA for telemarketing services to support our business development strategy. I was very impressed with the levels of focus and energy that the GSA team brought to the project - this helped to quickly identify new commercial opportunities. GSA had limited experience in our sector but they very quickly got up to speed and were able to provide us with a number of excellent opportunities that have subsequently been converted into new clients." Simon Starkey, Commercial Director R.Bugg Fowarding Ltd
