Global Media Runs On Accurate Market Data [CASE STUDY]

Global Media Runs On Accurate Market Data

The Client

The Client is a global media company providing more than 30,000 marketing programs from the Fortune 50 to emerging start-ups for 17 long years now. Their core services include targeted content, active audiences and innovative capabilities that run via a platform, to assist their clients in engaging with revenue-driven technology marketing programs.

The Challenge

To profile the data and conduct a survey among the Client’s existing customers.

The Callbox Solution

First Campaign – Data Profiling (2013)

The Client provided Callbox a list of their existing customers to be updated and profiled. The data profiling campaign wasn’t ran generically as merely updating wrong information, but rather implemented based on the Client’s specific process that required further research and data recording to complete the action.

Client’s Process:

  1. To call all the contacts in the list
  2. Verify all the details: name of pic, company name, job title, email address and direct line
  3. In case of “no answer”, the caller will have to look up the phone number for the company’s main switchboard, and attempt to verify the contact’s details; while for contacts who have left the company, the caller must use publicly available sources like Google and LinkedIn
  4. All information gathered shall be saved and sent to Client every 2 days

Note: The caller must not find/replace a contact and email address other than what’s in the list.

Second Campaign – Data Profiling (2014)

The second campaign worked on profiling more databases but delved more into the sources from which and how the information was verified which required accuracy in call disposals.The Leads were classified as:

  • Profiled by phone
  • Profiled by online sources
  • Employment validated
  • Employment invalidated
  • Unreachable/No updates

Aside from updating and cleansing the list, a step-by-step Question-&-Answer form was to be filled out by the caller in a spreadsheet that will detail how the data verification was done for each call.

Below are just 5 of the 11 questions and possible answers:

  • Did the phone number we provided work? Yes/No (Yes=the phone rang; No=the phone number was invalid or has been disconnected)
  • If yes, Did someone answer the phone? Yes, the lead him/ herself; Yes, someone other than the lead; No, nobody answered the phone)
  • If yes: Were you able to speak to the lead? Yes/No
  • If yes: Did the lead confirm the job profile and contact information we have on file for them? Yes/No
  • Did the lead give you updated information that is reflected in the spreadsheet? Yes/No

Callbox Takes on Challenge Scores A VIQtory [CASE STUDY]

Callbox Takes on Challenge and Scores a VIQtory

The Client

The Client is a leader in Precision Transcription & Stenography services in Australia. For more than 50 years now, the business holds the reputation in quality that has been built on strict, on-time delivery, and accurate professional transcription for events, meetings, interviews, arbitration and courts throughout the country.

Product & Service Offered

For the lead-off campaign, the focus was to set appointments with specific decision makers for specific industries. In those meetings, Client introduced and discussed the feature and benefits of VIQ Solutions – the world’s leading expert in digital audio, video and evidence capture and management solutions.

VIQ Solutions provides digital recording applications that allow multiple channels of audio and video recordings to be recorded simultaneously with annotations and other information attached to it.

The Challenge

The project plan to partner with a lead generation company was brought about by the Client’s challenge to be able to get through arduous targets like Legal, Medical & Investigation. These are industries that require detailed transcription/dictation tasks as they deal with sensitive and delicate matters.

The Callbox Solution

The Client signed Callbox for a campaign of 10 phone appointments qualified against its “ideal customer” standards:

An agent who called for the campaign for 8 hours everyday

Despite the agent starting out with with limited knowledge on transcription services, through the Callbox leader’s orientation and training, as well as the agent’s interest to learn the mechanics and myriad of applications of such a service , the agent achieved the Client’s desired level of proficiency in speaking with prospects about VIQ Solutions.

A well-filtered database

Filtering a database for the Client’s required target industries was quite a challenge for the Callbox team, as the number of these type of organizations in a country or region is quite below standards, as compared with consumer-centric businesses. But the team still managed to work well with the approved database.

Client-approved calling script

The calling script served as a guide for the caller to keep himself aligned and knowledgeably-sounding in offering the product & services’ value proposition, and setting solid appointments with target decision makers.

LinkedIn Account

The Callbox team built and managed the LinkedIn account, which was approved and kept monitored by the Client at which conversation threads with connections were viewed.

Emails

Email templates were drafted by Callbox and were approved by the Client. The templates varied in approach depending on the call disposal set by the agent on each call.

Campaign Status Reports

The weekly reports sent to the Client discussed about statistics and feedback about the campaign. Challenges encountered by the caller in his calls were noted, and corresponding action plans were suggested and implemented for each.

Calendar Invite

A calendar invite was utilized to confirm set appointments with interested prospects. And if by chance, that a prospect declined the calendar invite, the Callbox team worked out a follow up call for a reschedule, and made sure that no appointment/lead is lost.

Results

  • Callbox was able to open the doors for more opportunities for the Client to reach quite elusive targets in the tribunals and local councils in Australia by adding 9 solid leads to their existing client list.
  • Client signed for another contract, which was for another company under his management and which offered enterprise audio and text management products and systems.
  • Client is currently nurturing all the leads and maintained communications with Callbox for possible campaigns early this year

Callbox opened more doors of opportunities for the Client by complementing its business objectives with a multi-channel marketing scheme.

Such has gained them much trust from the industry sectors they serve and increased their clientele list over the years.

Indestructible they may seem to have lived with a four-decade trade leadership in the region, what good reason did they have to still take the option to enterprise telemarketing into their current strategies? Why not stick with the conventional, but proven effective scheme of 40 long years?

Why Callbox?



THE CALLBOX SOLUTION



Campaign 1 – Call To Invite

The first couple of Call-to-Invite projects aimed to gather attendees for Asia’s largest and most comprehensive business networking event for the Global ICT industry, which was participated in by international satellite communications and services companies in Asia, and professionals from Broadcast, Production, Post Production, Digital Media, Entertainment, Houses of Worships, System Integrators, Rental Houses, and Education.

table-c1

Attendees’ takeaways:
The event was not launched for mere knowledge enrichment and ideas sharing purposes for the attendees, but a plenitude of beneficial platforms for ICT professionals were introduced like Big Data Analytics, Cloud, eGovernment, eServices, Security, Smartcard/RFID and Wearables. Also featured were the latest technologies in 3D Printing, IoT, M2M, Mobile Apps, OTT and more.

Campaign 2 – Call To Invite

The second wave campaign engaged key decision makers in the manufacturing industry to access the latest precision engineering and machine tool technologies available in the global market, and key decision makers from the international oil and gas industry to showcase a comprehensive product innovation.

table-c2

Attendees’ takeaways:

Local parts and components manufacturers and service providers showcased their expertise at the Capabilities Hub, which brought prospective buyers closer to the suppliers via a single platform.

How Callbox streamlined the success

The preceding call-to-invite campaigns were successfully rolled out by the Callbox team which made an abounding progress in the client’s database. Both Callbox and the exhibition leader were responsible team players in completing the project thru multitouch, multichannel marketing tools and strategies.

The Callbox Pipeline, Callbox’s Lead Management and Marketing Automation platform, stored the client’s big amount of data. The callers updated the contacts with the most current information they uncovered during the call outs. Hitting two birds with a single stone – callers invited the prospects to attend the event and preregistered them on the client’s behalf and updated/profiled the list at the same time.

The Lead Nurturing Tool was activated. A scheme was customized to send out email invites to prospects, and once the invite was opened and read, a notification prompted the callers to do a follow up call and get the prospect pre-registered.

DM Outreached. Client’s own database came up to nearly 20,000,but almost 50% of that number was deemed “Un-contactable”.Both Callbox and the client agreed to add target contacts/job titles for the expansion of the list which resulted to a wider market reach and more email invites sent to target decision makers.

Campaign 3 -Data Profiling

A profiling campaign was set off by the client at the last quarter of 2015 which aimed not only to keep their database accurate, profiled and cleansed, but to prep things up for the next coming edition of events in 2016 and 2017, and which this exhibition expert sets to run again with Callbox.

So, ask again what good reason did this trade and exhibition expert thought of working with Callbox, despite their years of experience and proven expertise?

Why Callbox?

Clearly, the fitting reply can only be Why not?

Callbox Brings the Sunshine to Sales Lead Generation [CASE STUDY]

Callbox Brings the Sunshine to Sales Lead Generation

The Client

The Client is a new electricity retailer based in Sydney. The Client is rapidly hitting the Australian market with their integrated energy solutions. The current lead generation campaign they are running with Callbox is beaming with rays of potential in providing full energy service to Australian consumers.

Summary

The initial, single seat campaign period was launched in July. The main call objective was to set a face-to-face appointment for the Client with prospects bearing the discussion on the best solutions to lower down energy bills. The initial production generated 28 leads. This impressive production of leads from the initial period of calling inspired enough trust and confidence from the Client that they recommended our service to their sister company, a Clean Energy Regulator service provider. Callbox worked well and delivered the same amount of hard work and professionalism to the latter which resulted to a very good number of leads of 150, and renewal for another campaign contract.

The second part ran with 3 calling agents, and added 3 more campaigns which the Client branded as “special campaigns”, generating a total of 79 leads which finished with 96 leads. All these were achieved through the collaborated resources of both the Client’s sales team who drove so much vigor in sharing knowledge with the callers, coupled with Callbox’s multi-channel marketing processes.

  • Month 1: 28 Leads
  • Month 2: 79 Leads
  • Month 3: 96 Leads

Results

This leading energy retailer is taking delectation on each campaign month that we run for them. They value each lead delivered to them by the calling team and take pride in the glowing work relationship they have with Callbox.
