Driving success: how telemarketing fueled VEV’s pipeline

Challenge

Project background

VEV called on oneninefive to execute a multi-channel demand and lead generation program targeting named prospects in the UK. Given engagement acceleration was a major objective, telemarketing formed a large part of the program, with the objective of generating strong leads, based on broad buying centre conversations. Through confirmed opt-in and scheduled appointments with prospects, the VEV sales team was able to build a credible pipeline.

Approach

What we did

Using initial content created by Agent3 (including a thought leadership eBook, educational video, proposition infographic and dedicated campaign landing page) the telemarketing team kicked off with 2 x full time telemarketers targeting prospects using stakeholder insights, audience prioritisation and content syndication to set appointments. Results in the first six months achieved targets, triggering further investment to telemarketing efforts, and the oneninefive team was increased from two to four full time telemarketers, with VEV increasing its sales team, too. 

Results

How it went

In all, over the course of a year, oneninefive achieved all targets for telemarketing, generating over 150 appointments, all of which were attended. This opened up conversations with many tier 1 brands in the UK transport industry.

“oneninefive and VEV have been working together since our market launch. They have effectively become our outbound SDR function, securing qualified appointments and providing us feedback from the calls on buyer attitudes to our offer and the market.

The project scope with oneninefive has grown from a traditional contact build and appointment setting, to uncovering our prospects' strategies, goals and business challenges through multi-touch expansion of the buying centre. oneninefive’s dedicated team excels when fully integrated into the strategic growth and customer engagement plan. I would highly recommend oneninefive in connecting you with buyers of business transformation solutions..”
