Frequently asked questions

How do professional services firms generate pipeline without partners selling full time?+

By outsourcing the prospecting layer. A managed program books qualified conversations into partners' calendars so the senior people who deliver the work only step in once a fit prospect is ready to talk.

Is cold calling more effective than cold email?+

Neither wins on its own. Phone reaches buyers who ignore email and email reaches buyers who never pick up. A coordinated program uses both against the same target list.
