As
business swelters
under the burdens of
increased taxation
and employment laws,
surveys have shown
how companies are
more and more
reluctant to take on
members of staff.
That said, other
than certain types
of companies,
customer expect to
have a team of
helpers on hand
whenever they call.
Of course, that's
not always possible.
This is where call
centres come in.
They answer calls
diligently and
professionally when
no-one else is
available. They make
customers feel as if
they are looked
after straight away.
Meridian Delta has
the experience and
the know-how to take
your call centre
forward - for both
inbound and outbound
services.

Objective
Already well-known and
well-respected around the industry for their work
answering calls for a handful of TV shopping
companies, Inbound Solutions wanted to increase
their reach into the lucrative SME sector.
There are literally hundreds of thousands of
business whose phones go to an answering machine
if no-one's available to speak. Statistics have
shown that over 70% of callers will not leave a
message. In today's instant- -gratification
society, callers want to be answered straight
away.
Our customer wanted to communicate this quickly
and effectively. They wanted to get
micro-businesses to use them instead of an
answering machine.
Why did they choose
us?
Price - our email costs are
probably the lowest in the UK for specialist
business-to-business marketing. Why? We're
interested in getting repeat business from you,
not just the one-offs. Quality data from quality
suppliers. Spam Protection - all our emails are
strictly business related and conform with the
relevant 2003 EU and UK laws. Design Services - Ashton Creative designs
get results. Up to 3 times the result of
customer-designed emails. That's fact.
Whom were they
targeting?
Our data is never more than 9 months
old - thanks to the specialist companies which
supply us with data. We can get to just the
companies you need.

Inbound Solutions were targeting customers with 10
or less members of staff - the really small
businesses who would be stretched to provide that
personal service when the pressure was on.
What were the
results?
After two or three false starts to
the campaign where, free of charge, we changed
emails and faxes readily to see what would get a
better response, we finally hit upon the formula
for success.
Although variable according to the type of offer
they made, they hit the average response rate -
our target cost of £20 per enquriy. Most response levels at time of writing
however are closer to the average response rate of
1-2 per 1,000.
All figures
given are based on customer correspondence
with us. Email marketing is a form of
advertising, and as with all advertising it
can be successful as well as unsuccessful.
We do not guarantee any level of response.
On average, for every 1,000 email sent out,
there are 1-2 opt outs, even fewer than fax
broadcasting! When we receive an opt-out, we
remove the number from all databases to
ensure they are never emailed by us or the
pool participants again.
