Outsourcing Your Sales – Red Balloon Creative

You outsource your accounts, HR and IT… so why not outsource your sales too?

Most new business owners try and do everything themselves, and you can’t blame them. After all, this business is their baby. They come up with the idea and they want to make it a success.

They spend ages trying to get to grips with the accounts, then hire an accountant. They spend ages trying to fix their IT problems, then turn to an IT support company. They spend ages trying to hire and fire employees, then let a HR consultant take over. Then, after all this, they spend ages trying to bring in sales. Then they try harder. Then they appear desperate. And finally their business is in trouble. So at what point do you try to find help with your sales?

A builder is a builder, not a salesman. A business consultant is a business consultant, not a salesman. A printer is a printer… well you get the idea. So why not have somebody else take care of your sales? Most companies, if they are large enough, hire a salesman to bring in business. And no doubt it works, but let’s see how much this is going to cost you:

-  Car & Insurance – £400 + Per Month.
-  Salary – £1300 (minimum) Per Month.
-  Phone – £40 Per Month.
-  Laptop – £30 Per Month.

Overall cost = £1770 + commission on sales PER MONTH!

For a large business, provided the cost per sale is high enough, this isn’t too big an expense. But if you have a small business the likelihood is you just can’t afford this, especially if what you are selling isn’t of high financial value. So, do you carry on trying to sell yourself as well as running the company? Well, I hope not, because if you do the chances are you will fail. Why not consider outsourcing your sales?

Red Balloon Creative are one of the only companies that offer the complete package of sales and marketing services. Our sales representatives are highly experienced, motivated and ready to sell your product or service in the best possible light.

So how will outsourcing my sales save me money?

Well, we charge a small monthly fee for our services. This fee, depending on what it is we are doing for you, will typically be under £500. You won’t be paying for a car, phone, laptop or salary. All you will be paying for is the retainer, an agreed commission per sale (which you’d pay your own salesman anyway) and travelling expenses if any are incurred.

We will take care of generating leads for your business and following these leads up. We will meet with potential clients face to face, selling your product or service on your behalf. Rather than just having one person, you will have a fleet of sales representatives from our company working on your behalf.

So, if you’d rather your company made more sales at less expense to you, get in touch at www.redballooncreative.com. Alternatively, you can carry on trying to take care of the sales side of your business yourself as well as everything else. But please, get in touch before it’s too late for you and your business. We promise not to say ‘I told you so’.
