Teemu Ilola has gained extensive experience in building a successful and profitable outbound sales organization on an international scale during his years at Leadoo. With roles as Sales Director UK and VP of Sales Operations, managing a team from 30 to 80 sales reps entering the UK, Sweden, and Spain, Teemu has tried, failed, and ultimately succeeded.
If you're frustrated about the number of booked appointments within your sales organization, this is the episode for you!
The only way to build a profitable outbound team is to put it on autopilot (process + tools + training) with an outbound process and the correct tools that provide you with the data needed to understand where the actual conversation takes place.
Teemu teaches us how to apply a multichannel approach and convinces us of its cost efficiency, all without annoying the person you're trying to reach.
"Get the same results in 2 hours instead of 2 days"—that's the difference.
If you're looking to book more meetings in 2024, tune in.
