    300 Calls Min, Target and speak to 40% of prospects. Email Follow ups and voicemails.

    There is no way in hell you are actually going to speak to 40% of 300 cold calling. The dilution is much higher even if your calls are very targeted. Logically the math does not work. If you call 300 in one day and actually speak to 40% that means you had 120 conversations with a decision maker a day. That is not happening.

    With a predictive dialer, it is possible.

    conversation is relative. But its very possible to speak to 120 decision makers a day if your hitting the phones hard.

    This is somewhat laughable. I don't know anyone that can get these type of results.

    Ill tell you from our efforts in the last 30 days, We marketed 350K contacts (mix of marketing efforts) through our proprietary process. That resulted in 1,467 business expressing interests, which 53 qualified contacts filled out our application and provided bank statements.

    We are working on increasing our percentages of contacts reached to expressing interests and then expressing interests to qualified contacts filling out applications.

    Remember that there is a difference of divisions between Marketing and Sales. Once you understand that marketing is there to reach out and get interests. Sales is there to reach out to the interested and move them through your sales process. But that is how we approach it.
