Virtual Sales Assistant

If you ask any sales person if they would prefer talking to a warm lead or a cold lead, they will say “warm” every single time. There’s no doubt that a lead who is familiar with your company and/or product is going to be more receptive to a sales pitch versus someone who gets a call from your company out of the blue.

The problem is most warm leads were once cold leads. Well actually, that’s not really the problem. The problem is that most warm leads won’t convert into a customer right away, but if your sales team doesn’t log discovery and/or follow up information about that lead into your CRM (customer relationship management software) that lead pretty much goes cold and you’re back to square one.

A busy sales team doesn’t always have time to be diligent about logging notes into a CRM which means you’re not only losing out on leads but potential future sales. To ensure revenue doesn’t slip through the cracks anymore, hire a virtual sales assistant.

Virtual Assistant vs. Employee:

Sure, you could hire an employee to help you with this work, but do you really have enough small sales tasks to fill up 40 hours per week or even 20 hours per week every single week? If not, that employee will be spending down time on your dime.

With a virtual sales assistant you pay for the hours you need and nothing more.

You’ll save money by not having to provide employee benefits, office space, office supplies (computer, desk, coffee and so on) or any of the other things that come with full or part-time employees.

Your virtual sales assistant will come with his or her own supplies, a strong education (TaskBullet assistants have university degrees) and a deep professional background.

In addition, when you hire a virtual sales assistant from TaskBullet you are also assigned a project manager to ensure that everything runs smoothly.
