The Value of Auto Dialers
A keyword search for "auto dialer" on Google Search will find over seven hundred thousand sites. Out of the first fifty sites that Google displays, a quick perusal of the page summaries show that at least ninety percent of them are trying to get you to buy their auto dialer. What is this hot item and what do you need to know about it?
An auto dialer's job is to allow just one sales agent to make a large volume of calls quickly and efficiently. When making B2C calls (which stands for Business to Customer) an auto dialer will save an immense amount of time for any organization.
For an auto dialer to work it must be programmed with a list of phone numbers to call, such as your list of leads. As your business generates leads from its own website or purchases new or old leads from any of the lead generation companies out there (a search of "lead generation company" will give you over sixty thousand sites to explore) they can be fed into the auto dialer. The same is true for lists of previous and current clients or leads that you are nurturing. The auto dialer will then transfer these numbers for your sales team to call.
When shopping for an auto dialer look for a system that will phone the numbers given to your sales agents with just a click of the mouse. Additionally those sales agents should be able to leave a prerecorded voice message, or send a fax or an email with just another click.
Traditionally auto dialers haven't been used as much in B2B calls (which stands for Business to Business). Businesses are much more likely to have a receptionist or a voice recognition message system which requires an agent to do too much maneuvering. This defeats a purely automatic auto dialer for a B2B sales team.
But there is a new kind of auto dialer available known as a "hybrid" auto dialer. This allows the agent the ability to take care of the basic tasks of manual dialing giving the sales agent the needed control to successfully contact other businesses.
When shopping those seven hundred thousand search results for an automatic dialer search for one who's auto dialer software can provide these benefits; enables hands free dialing, displays lead information, displays lead notes, displays lead activities, displays daily call statistics, allows leaving a voice message while agent is onto the next call, allows sending email and faxes with a click of a button, and enables quick data entry.
The purpose of auto dialers and the corresponding auto dialer software is to allow you and your sales team to contact thousands of leads each day. An auto dialer has the potential to increase the amount of calls your call center makes 'four times' the amount they are doing calling manually.
