Frequently asked questions

Why do digital marketing agencies struggle with their own lead generation?+

Because client work always comes first. Agencies are excellent at marketing for clients but rarely have dedicated capacity to prospect for themselves, which is exactly the gap an outsourced program fills.

What is the difference between appointment setting and lead generation?+

Lead generation creates qualified interest. Appointment setting takes that interest all the way to a confirmed meeting on your calendar. The end deliverable is a held conversation.
