Let’s focus on outsourcing teleprospecting

Teleprospecting, also called phoning or telephone prospecting, is a profession in its own right. In this sense, the operator must possess skills acquired through serious, continuous and reliable training. He must also be able to naturally make verbal exchanges and inspire enough confidence in his interlocutor to convince him. Thanks to ProContact outsourcing, you can offer your company a professional remote prospection service that is able to establish a first quality contact with your future customers.

ProContact: the teleprospecting specialist

Teleprospecting is not something improvised and most importantly, it is effective for most sectors of activity (real estate, personal services, etc.). Every campaign that we carry out on behalf of our customers is carefully prepared in order to obtain concrete, quality results that will allow the company to accurately meet the needs of its targets.

At ProContact, our campaigns are led by our team of professional tele-actors, who are trained in sales and communication techniques. Operations are mainly in French and English, but can also be conducted in five other languages.

The marketing tools that we have are easily adaptable to your needs. They allow you to reach a large number of people while maintaining a qualitative approach.

Let’s explore a teleprospecting campaign in detail

Conducted from our call centre, the telemarketing campaign relies on customer files provided by your company. Our tele-operators use tele-survey software and develop their pitch according to your needs and your market.

They are trained to adapt to the different obstacles that may suddenly crop up and they have a solid commercial training to argue effectively and to carry out their actions in a relevant and combative way.

Teleprospecting campaigns allow you to qualify leads and then relaunch them with other marketing actions that can combine several channels. With file qualification, you can enrich your database and improve customer relationship management.

We scrupulously follow the various steps that make up a successful campaign:

  • Agent presentation phase;
  • Proposal Phase to explain the product or service;
  • Listening Phase in order to audit the real prospects, explain the objective of the call, make an appointment, qualify or probe (proposal phase);
  • Argumentation Phase in order to explain the advantages for the customer if he adopts the service or product in question. The operator takes advantage of this phase to explain the terms of acquisition, help the customer in his purchase, send a proposal or validate the payment;
  • Lead tracking Phase: this is undoubtedly the most important element of a telephone campaign

As you might have understood, teleprospecting is not only about calling people, both from the general public (B2C) and professionals (B2B). It is a full-fledged sales technique, which will help the company to diversify and strengthen its targets and to increase consumer confidence. It is therefore essential to entrust this task to a person trained to do this. It is time for your internal resources to focus on their core business!

Why outsource your teleprospecting service?

As a company, you need to achieve several goals, without which you will simply no longer be able to exist:

Accelerate your sales: a prospect who has needs will take the time to respond and listen to the arguments presented by a company. At the other side of the call, he must be able to converse with a person who knows the product or service, who is able to explain about them in detail and to talk about them easily. Teleprospecting is undoubtedly the most relevant technique for establishing trust-based communication.

Reduce your costs: how much does your commercial land currently cost? With outsourcing, reduce and optimise this expense while increasing the number of human resources available to sell your product or service!

Measuring your ROI: by effectively measuring your ROI, you’ll be able to make better decisions and create accurate marketing strategies. Our TV viewers will allow you to quickly analyse and measure your return on investment, thanks to the number of calls or the total number of prospects contacted.

Increase your prospects database: if some prospects are not interested in your product or service, others will have a more positive behaviour! These will feed your prospects database, through which you will create and maintain a link.

How is your marketing strategy?

Right now, your business has everything to gain from growing its lead base. This is related to its development in a complicated economic context. If you are looking for an inexpensive and, most importantly, effective solution to support prospecting, outsourcing is one of the most formidable tools to win on several levels.

Take stock of the ability of your internal resources to carry out your commercial telemarketing campaigns and ProContact will be the backup! Whether you need to build an entire team or want to expand the existing one within your company, our agents will convince your leads of the merits of your service or product.

Efficiency, optimised time management, honed speeches and, above all, adapted to your needs, we transform teleprospecting into a precise exercise.

ProContact is more than a contact centre.

SME: outsourcing is for you as well!

There are many tasks that can be outsourced; large companies do not think twice when delegating those that take too much time while wasting valuable resources at the same time. However, outsourcing has never been reserved for these large companies only! SMEs, you can reduce your costs too with ProContact, your partner!

Why outsource when you are an SME?

As a small business, you may not have the budget required to hire permanent and full-time additional labour, especially in the current economic and pandemic context. Thus, this situation might be difficult for you to guarantee quality service to your customers.

At the same time, you need additional human capital and perhaps expertise that you do not have internally. Outsourcing is the right solution for you thanks to its competitive rates.

On-demand services

Thanks to outsourcing via ProContact, your SME can finally hire additional labour according to its needs. Whether it is for short, medium or long term, you can expand your teams with trained, experienced, flexible and multilingual agents. Save time with this formula to, for example, start multiple projects at the same time while being able to focus on your core business!

Gain competitiveness and credibility

As an SME, you may not have the same budget as, or sufficient resources to, match large companies. However, thanks to outsourcing, you will finally be able to gain expertise and agility, as ProContact agents are specialised in several key areas:

  • B2B / B2C prospecting;
  • Remote secretary;
  • Customer relationship;
  • CRM tool and CRM software;
  • Satisfaction surveys;
  • Human resources.

The result: your SME is also gaining credibility with its customers, since it is able to meet their needs on time, just as a bigger competitor would!

An internal team with a human dimension which is more easily manageable

In the context of an SME, team management can add additional stress to its manager. Between the different needs, the personalities of each resource, the administrative aspect and the responsibilities, it can be difficult, over time, to create, nurture and maintain internal cohesion.

Outsourcing is the solution to get around this complexity by providing you with agents managed by their own employer.

For a better exploitation of your internal talents

As the tasks of your internal team are reduced thanks to outsourcing, it will be able to exploit its talents more effectively! Each human resource can therefore focus on the tasks for which it was hired, without being burdened by those that are not related to their positions. Your SME becomes able to generate quality work, minimise distractions and facilitate communication.

Competitive costs

Many companies have chosen outsourcing in order to streamline costs. ProContact offers competitive rates, allowing you to save substantially on salary expenses.

In simple terms, as an SME, you will only pay for the services provided.

Less administrative restrictions

It is much easier to hire the services of an outsourcing provider than to hire a new employee! This applies if you want, for example, to temporarily expand one team or another or to reduce the number of your agents, without having to worry about labour laws.

Innovation and development

Whether your SME is new to the market or established for several years, your goal remains development and innovation. Do not settle for a few people to complete each project: add qualified people according to your needs thanks to ProContact!

A good time to outsource

As an SME, the current pandemic and economic period is delicate and complex. How can you continue to keep your employees, deliver your products and services when the context is more fragile than ever? Continue to innovate, grow and generate revenue through a trusted partnership.

For an agile business, rely on an effective partnership with your outsourcing provider!

Over time and with great perseverance, the outsourcing sector has become a major player in the development of many companies. These, by gaining agility and flexibility, have managed to grow, remain competitive, while going through the most complex economic crisis. ProContact is your supplier if you wish to make a qualitative difference both internally and on relation to your customers.

What is an agile business?

The Definitions-Marketing website explains what an agile company is: “The concept of an agile company generally refers to a company that is able to adapt very quickly to its environment both in terms of its strategy and its operational practices”.

The concept of agile business was first developed in relation to internet start-ups and other companies linked to new technologies, because on one hand, this constantly-evolving environment requires strong adaptability, and on the other hand, the « virtual » or « immaterial » presence of the Internet makes it easier « to change or even to reorient strategies. Therefore, it is not uncommon for Internet enterprises to completely review their business model quickly after time after their creation.

While the concept of an agile business has been mainly established at the core of the digital environment, it is now also claimed by large « traditional » companies, especially through their « global digitalisation » approaches. The notion of agile business is partly related to that of agile marketing.

Why choose the concept of agility?

Yes, outsourcing is a factor of agility! By taking this approach, your business can win on various fronts:

  • Lead creation;
  • Customer service and support;
  • Account management;
  • HR support;
  • Faster overall response time, and others.

Outsourcing: a sector at the forefront of innovation

Today, it is essential to innovate. In an era during which trends change every day and when customers want novelty at a rapid pace, companies need to be agile and constantly listening.

In recent years, the outsourcing industry has realized that it is time to abandon an expensive and redundant model for an innovative approach. Whether it is in relation to technologies, business expectations or operational models, outsourcing can, today, say that it is a strategic partnership for its customers.

In addition to reducing costs and improving back-office services, outsourcing offers a collaborative framework led by trained agents who are able to integrate new value-added products or services in a company that requires it. Your partnership with ProContact will allow you to accelerate your growth and ensure you are one step ahead of your competitors, including those most firmly established in the market!

The benefits of a strategic partnership with ProContact

Given the current pandemic and economic context, we can afford to predict that the outsourcing market will help companies become more collaborative and competitive. For example, at ProContact, we focus on results while sharing risks.

Gain agility and therefore choose a strategic partnership with our Customer Relationship Centre. To help you stay competitive and flexible, we put at your disposal cutting-edge technology, trained agents and teams excited to help your business go further and surpass the competition. We give you access to tools and skills that are vital today to adapt to market developments!

A personalised strategy thanks to our expertise

Even a few years ago, companies turned to outsourcing only to, at a lower cost, outsource jobs that were considered of low-value-added and too time-consuming to allow teams to fully express their talents. Now this is only half-truth, because these criteria have evolved.

For example, at ProContact, we offer customised contracts, adapted to the duration of your needs: short, medium or long term. Adapt your business to macroeconomic; local and internal conditions. We support you closely if you want to make changes to our partnership as your business develops!

Let’s turn flexibility into the engine of your evolution strategy, so you can seamlessly adapt to the peaks and dips of the business cycle. In addition to delivering key performance indicators, we offer you agility that was unthinkable just a few years ago.

Business Process Outsourcing: 3 major benefits for companies in 2020

There is no denying it: with the Covid-19 pandemic and the economic crisis that has ensued, the market has been sinking; it is definitely not in good shape. While many companies have managed to get out of the way (at the cost of some sacrifices), the global economy is in a recession. As a result, companies can only reduce costs and increase productivity in order to maintain their cash flow and, above all, to keep thriving amidst the competition. This equation is more complex than it seems, since these same companies cannot reduce their operations, because, of course, the economy will recover in due time. So, it is essential to be ready to resume service. This is where Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) becomes an asset; a formidable tool.

BPO (Business Process Outsourcing): more than a concept, a necessity

BPO, or outsourcing, is for a company to delegate certain tasks to another specialised company. What types of tasks are usually outsourced?

  • Tasks that are too time-consuming;
  • Low value added tasks;
  • Tasks that must be subject to specific skills and that are unavailable internally.

However, you must be careful. These tasks remain important for the smooth running of the company! At ProContact, we cater to a wide range of needs, divided into three broad categories, namely Marketing, Back Office and Front Office. In more detail, our customers entrust the following services to our contact centre:

  • B2B / B2C prospecting;
  • Remote secretary;
  • Customer relationship;
  • CRM tool and CRM software;
  • Satisfaction surveys;
  • Human resources.

Outsourcing: a booming solution!

Outsourcing is definitely a booming industry, being an easy solution to implement during this period of economic downturn. By putting aside the reticence that may arise given the current atmosphere, one realises that outsourcing is the best way to:

  • Reduce costs;
  • To be able to count on complete human resource services;
  • Continue to focus on its core business.

Outsourcing: one step closer to digital transformation

There has been a lot of talk about remote work since the beginning of the pandemic, but where to start? Previously compared to a wall that can be easily broken down, today it becomes a new way to move the business forward. However, its implementation can be risky, if it is not mastered; if it is not accompanied by experts in the field. In fact, a US study conducted by McKinsey Research reports that remote working has, so far, really served only 30% of the companies that have used it.

The reasons behind this are simple and many, because moving to telework requires:

  • Additional investments in computer hardware;
  • Hiring specialised consultants to set up the process;
  • The purchase of specific insurance plans for remote working;
  • Changes in employee contracts;
  • And other factors.

However, in the context of outsourcing, all these aspects are taken care of by the provider.

3 major benefits of BPO that we do not really think of

The current climate is conducive to act with finesse and come out a winner. Outsourcing offers the following benefits to companies that choose to increase their efficiency:

A reduction in staff costs

Completing all the steps of a recruitment process is actually expensive. Added to this is the real difficulty of finding skills especially in technical areas or those that require specific training (marketing, human resources, etc.), and wages and competition.

Outsourcing allows companies that use it to access sharp and trained skills without having to spend the time, energy and money that is essential in the traditional recruitment process.

Interrupted development

Yes, companies are doing everything they can to recover from the recession and continue to grow; to improve their position in the face of competition while continuing to convince and retain customers. If recruiting new talent seems, again, the easiest solution to set up, this is not the time for extra expenses! Even more delicate, these new talents risk upsetting a corporate culture weakened by the pandemic. Why not just invest in a proven solution: outsourcing?

The ability to focus on temporary strategic projects

Your company has come to important conclusions during this pandemic period and wants to transform its organisation to make it more efficient. For this you need additional « hands », but what to do with these people after the transformation is completed? Outsourcing gives you the option of a temporary partnership, which you can terminate immediately after your project is completed.

Outsourcing, the solution to minimise costs while maximizing internal resources

Outsourcing certainly caters for the delegation of the least advantageous tasks for the development of the company. Nevertheless, it allows you to benefit from strategic and essential skills and capabilities quickly.

Outsourcing the best decision your company can make in the current circumstances!

Outsourcing: the solution to optimise your company’s human resources during the economic recession!

Human resources remain a pivotal service. However, outsourcing them is arguably the best decision a company can make. Why? Outsourcing makes it possible to shape a more specialised HR department that is able to actively participate in the advancement and development of the company without being burdened by time-consuming tasks.

Outsourcing Human Resources: what is it about?

Outsourcing is the use of delegating one or more services to a third party company that is specialised in this type of mission. When it comes to human resources, this can include recruitment, training, legal expertise and payroll administration and other services. This solution is perfect for reducing the salary costs of the company that uses it.

When to outsource your human resources?

More than ever, it is high time for companies to focus on their business, on their development and on the competitition. To achieve this, it is therefore essential to delegate tasks that are important but require time and energy.

Human resources management is one of these necessary functions, but it is far too polluted by actions that slow them down. Just take the example of payroll management. At ProContact, an outsourcing specialist, it is with the utmost rigour and in compliance with labour law that our experts accompany you in monitoring the remuneration of your employees for a fair Social Policy that is adapted to the needs of your company. We support the following missions:

  • Payroll management (with Payroll tool) & settlements;
  • Social statements;
  • Support for compensation management.

Some examples of the benefits of outsourcing the management of your human resource services

The testimonials are enough to allow us to place importance on the advantageous aspect of outsourcing; this solution is increasingly attractive to companies. There are many reasons to consider this option the current economy which has been hit by an unfortunately unprecedented recession and the Covid-19 pandemic.

Allow your company to get out of this turbulent period and trust ProContact, an outsourcing specialist established in the market for 19 years now!

To reduce costs

We can say, without any doubt, that outsourcing is the best solution to allow your company to save money. In what way?

By spending less on salaries: let’s take the salary of an HRD, who earns several thousand of euros per month, excluding social benefits.

Reducing hiring and training costs:

Recruiting may cost between 5000 and 8000 euros, because you have to plan for:

  • Internal costs: recruiters’ salaries, structural costs, operational time;
  • External costs: tools, recruitment firms, providers, etc.

For the training of a new employee, it will be necessary to count between 1000 € and 2500 € per day!

If you outsource your human resource services, these aspects will be the responsibility of the service provider!

To increase the company’s income

How can outsourcing human resources save the company time? Take the example of a small business, in which the boss himself manages this aspect. The consequences are usually not unexpected and they have to be dealt with without any delay. Thus, he will have to reduce the time spent on his business functions. This lost time is therefore synonymous with loss of money for the company.

Outsourcing is the most appropriate solution for a return on investment that far exceeds the bill for this service.

For human resources that respect labour laws and regulations

Human resources management requires a thorough knowledge of labour laws and regulations. Any shortcoming or mistake can lead to significant losses for the company: in terms of money, time and sometimes employees. With ProContact, delegate from now on the essential aspects, but which tend to waste the time of your employees and distract them from their original mission and help your company grow and evolve with the right people!

For a sharp recruitment that is in line with the needs of your company

How can your HR department focus on finding the best talent if it is constantly interrupted by secondary, but essential tasks? Outsourcing will allow your company to streamline the recruitment process by finally having the time to focus on an efficient hiring process, in which every aspect will be thought of to attract the best profiles, from the initial job description to the interview process.

Start preparing for the outsourcing of your human resources

How will outsourcing help your business achieve its goals?

Conduct an audit of your human resources to determine the tasks that will help your company achieve its objectives. Tasks which have certain gaps caused by your employees must be outsourced to finally be streamlined.

Audit your employees

Employees are undoubtedly in daily contact with the company’s HR, so they will be able to say what is working properly and what needs improvement. Do not hesitate to launch an anonymous survey on salary benefits, quality of training and employee integration. Be precise in your questions to accurately identify gaps.

Contact us!

Outsourcing human resources can be an intimidating project, but entrusted to a reliable provider that is recognised for the quality of its services, your company can only emerge a winner!

How to turn outsourcing into a sustainable and strong partnership?

Outsourcing is a process that can seem complex; a difficult decision to make and a stressful step. However, adopting this solution is actually much more than a sacrifice at the company level, because by turning to the right provider, not only will you benefit from support at all times, but above all, you will find a good, effective consulting partner who will put his expertise at your service. As a contact centre, ProContact goes beyond outsourcing, because we place human beings as well as solid values at the heart of our corporate culture. Here are our tips for a sustainable partnership.

Why build a relationship with your outsourcing provider?

The relationship a company builds with its outsourcing provider will inevitably impact on the value of the partnership and its success. It is therefore essential for each party to agree on certain points in order to transform their outsourcing contract into a positive, productive and long-lasting experience.

Advantages of outsourcing

By choosing outsourcing, you will, of course, hire the services of another company, an outsourcing provider. However, it is important to look beyond the contract, obligations or even numbers. Indeed, instead of just a supplier, you will gain a real partner, alongside whom you will constantly evolve and who will offer you:

  • Flexible payment terms that streamline your company’s expenses ;
  • Quick implementation of tasks and projects that allow your company to focus on its core business ;
  • The provision of technical and human resources that will allow your company to expand and keep satisfying its customers
  • The voluntary contribution of an external eye and new ideas, which will allow your company to optimise its tasks and processes ;
  • A personalised service which is in accordance with the image of your company.

Unparalleled expertise

Your outsourcing provider is an expert in his field and by trusting him and creating a healthy and transparent relationship, your company will be able to take advantage of his expertise for costs that are incomparable with those in your country, for example.

It is therefore important to clearly express your problems so that your partner can put in place solutions that can turn the situation in your favour.

At ProContact, we support a wide range of needs that are divided into three general categories, namely Marketing, Back Office and Front Office. In more detail, our clients trust our contact centre with the following services:

  • B2B / B2C prospecting;
  • Remote secretary;
  • Customer relationship;
  • CRM tool and CRM software;
  • Satisfaction surveys;
  • Human resources.

Transform your outsourcing provider into an all-time partner

To produce a balanced, productive and winning synergy for both parties, a professional relationship must be built on a few simple gestures, including in the context of outsourcing. Below are the recommendations of ProContact:

  • Our role as a contact centre is to enable your company to achieve its goals. Every day, we invest in your success by taking all the necessary measures to optimise your performance and to allow you to take the essential steps that are required to expand.
  • We have set up processes, which we constantly improve, in order to deliver a service that meets your expectations and above all, that has the ability to make you evolve quickly despite the competition and the current economic context which is particularly complex.
  • We adjust our processes according to your needs and we do not hesitate to make suggestions in order to find a relevant agreement.
  • We are tailored to become full members of your team!

A partner who knows all the ins and outs of your business

As an outsourcing partner, our call centre’s mission is to adapt ourselves to your business, so that we portray your image in the way possible to your customers and prospects.

For this, we invite each client to train us, as they would any new employee. By having access to all the right resources and documentations, we will be able to accurately identify your internal needs and processes to become your best ambassador!

A clear and written definition of the roles of each party

For a successful partnership, it is important to put all the tasks and deadlines to be met by each party, that is your company and our Customer Relationship Centre, in writing.

By putting in place a formal procedure, we will eliminate any ambiguity with regards to the actions and deliverables on either side of this partnership.

By writing down the role of everyone involved and making the necessary updates when required, each member of our team, but also each employee of your company, will be able to work in harmony and in full efficiency.

Communication is the cornerstone of a successful outsourcing partnership!

The main cause of failure between customers and their provider is lack of communication. At ProContact, we promote and encourage regular communication which is maintained even if your company operates in a different time zone.

This constant communication will allow us to adapt our services according to the evolution of your company. With strong communication, together, we will be able to prevent any problems that may arise, to create and nurture a productive and positive common culture, to adapt our common strategies and tactics and to dispel any ambiguity in order to intelligently optimise performance.

Succeeding in your outsourcing project: the advice of ProContact, your partner

In addition to reducing costs, outsourcing is primarily a partnership that produces results over the medium and long term. This solution is perhaps the most relevant one today for companies wishing to remain ahead of the competition in an economic context shaken by the pandemic. More than ever, it is necessary to lower expenses without losing in quality and efficiency. If your company plans to turn to outsourcing, here are some essential points to consider to succeed in this project that will have an active role in the development of your company. ProContact is a specialised contact centre leading in its geographical area. We accompany you as from the training but also throughout the realisation of your project.

What are the goals of your company with regards to outsourcing?

Your outsourcing operation must begin and take place within a clearly defined framework and in line with the overall challenges of the company, so that it can justify the objectives of such an operation. This outsourcing project can meet the needs of the company that also wants to:

  • Reduce, control and optimise operating costs,
  • Expand its expertise, without having to hire an additional resource,
  • Continue to develop and respond effectively to its customers by focusing on its business,
  • Reposition internal resources on high value-added trades,
  • Optimize the quality and speed of execution of its work,
  • Improve and increase the quality of service,
  • Get better visibility into your activities while staying in control

Our experience in the call centre sector allows us to offer you a tailor-made contract that is able to meet your expectations.

Identify and analyse company services and activities that can be outsourced

To draw a realistic list of your company’s activities and services that can be outsourced, here are the questions that you must ask:

  • What activities represents the core business of my company?
  • What about the safety of its operations? Will an outsourcing provider be able to respect or even improve the quality?
  • What costs for these in-house activities and what will be the costs if they are covered by a contact centre?
  • Which outsourcing partner is ideal for my project: a company located outside my borders?

The Customer Relationship Centre ProContact offers a wide range of services that you can quickly and easily outsource: B2B/B2C prospecting, remote secretary services, your customer relationship service, your CRM tool and software, your customer satisfaction surveys or even your human resources.

For a successful outsourcing, your company must master the activities to be outsourced

Outsourcing does not mean that the client company is getting rid of an activity that it does not master the mechanisms of. By having the necessary skills in-house, this ensures a smooth steering, which will lead to an effective and long-lasting partnership.

At ProContact, we rely on solid communication, guaranteeing the goals set together. This will also achieve better productivity at controlled costs.

Outsourcing, a complete but above all human process

As a company, each player must be able to express their expectations, but also their fears regarding this outsourcing project. It is therefore essential to demonstrate to your employees that your project is rigorous in all respects, that you have taken into account all the technical, economic, strategic and of course human aspects of this next stage of your evolution. For this, the organisation of your outsourcing must be precise, done to the millimetre, and supported by a solid process.

So you will need to be able to set up a team specially dedicated to this step. It will have the function of organising the project in detail, making the link between the internal teams and those of your provider.

Many companies have succeeded in this challenge and have turned towards outsourcing one or more services to ProContact! Today, they benefit from the best tools, but also from teams of consultants specially trained for quality support and delivering concrete results.

Finding a trusted partner for sustainable collaboration

In the context of outsourcing, the provider is not only a provider of a service, but he must also be able to transform himself into a trusted partner. Its role is to implement everything so that the client company achieves its goals. On the other hand, the client must be able to take into account the business objectives of its supplier. Each party must win the contract, in a context of understanding, collaboration while complying with the contract.

For example, ProContact provide you with a clearly established offer, allowing your company to actively participate in the transfer of skills, information, etc., to the agents of its contact centre.

ProContact: more than an outsourcing provider, your partner!
