Rich LaPiana

Hello, my name is Rich LaPiana and I market myself as The Phone Pro. I have over 30 years of telephone sales experience including print advertising, fundraising, product sales, collections, market surveys, appointment setting, customer service, and lead generation. In todays challenging economy, companies are looking for cost effective ways to generate leads and sales. Outsourcing an appointment setting / lead-generation program can help companies of any size or industry introduce their goods or services to new qualified prospects, while eliminating the burden of hiring a new employee. Using a freelance appointment setter allows your sales representatives to focus on the more lucrative process of closing sales. I can quickly launch an outbound appointment setting / lead generation campaign for you. To get started, all I need is a script and list of contacts. If you don't have a list, I can work to help you obtain contacts targeted to your specific field or industry. Good luck with your search, Rich
