B2B Appointment Setting Firm - Virtual Appoint - Reports Strong Growth, Expansion

HOUSTON, Aug. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Virtual Appoint, a leading provider of outsourced B2B appointment setting services to US businesses, announced record revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010.  The company reported strong overall growth, with particularly strong demand for its B2B appointment setting services among technology, financial services, staffing, medical, and marketing services firms.

"We're very pleased with how the company has been able to grow during a difficult economic time. It's a testament to the incredible hard work of our associates and the results they've been able to achieve for our clients. The bulk of our growth has been generated through high repeat rates from current clients and strong word of mouth," said Tom Wilson, Virtual Appoint's Director of Business Development.

Over the next 6 months, Virtual Appoint plans to add 10-15 appointment setting associates. The company has set up an application form on its website: http://virtualappoint.com/about-us/join-our-team/.  

"Our business is very simple. We take one of the most difficult and stress-inducing tasks of any executive or salesperson's job - cold calling for new business - and move it off their plates. It allows our clients to not only grow their sales, but also to focus on the aspects of their businesses they really enjoy," continued Mr. Wilson.

David Weissman, Director of New Business Development for New York City-based T&L Group commented, "We hired Virtual Appoint to set appointments for our IT consultancy. Within 12 hours of starting our campaign, we were able to close two business deals directly from appointments Virtual Appoint set for us. The results shattered even our most optimistic expectations."  

The company believes three factors in its service have been instrumental in its growth:

• No contracts -- the company works with clients on a month-to-month basis and does not employ long term contracts.
• Skilled, US-based associates -- Virtual Appoint hires and trains associates with extensive appointment setting experience, with a focus on complex sales.
• Low, all inclusive pricing -- the company sells packages of calling hours per month; rates start at $17/hour, with no additional costs to the client.
