TELEMARKETING OUTSOURCING
TELEMARKETING OUTSOURCING means that it’s a method of selling goods or services through phone calls. This means that the company hires people aside from the one who are working from that company to make a call to the prospect customer or to do business using phone or web calling. This type of business can be done in the office or mostly called as call centers or even at home which is more convenient to the person who is involve or the telemarketer. There two types of call an inbound call and outbound call. Inbound call is call from the client when they have any queries, they ask for more information regarding the product or services being offered by the company or request from a client and/or response from the field sales person. Outbound call on the other hand is the one who is doing the first step to do business, they are the one who call the prospect directly with some of the basic information and offer the company's product. This means that it also considered as a company's way to expands its business because they don't have to go to the house of the costumer to transact all they do is call them directly in the house, in the office or even on their mobile phone to discuss, offer and to some follow up marketing to their clients. There are some telemarketing rules and code of ethics in this industry as many people describe this as annoying because of the time of the call which sometimes falls on the dinner time, early in the mornings, office hours and late in the evenings. Companies who use this as a sales tools are to follow the states rule on “DO NOT CALL" policy which means that they can't call the numbers which are on this list. If they are caught or there are complaints there will be some penalties or legal actions regarding this case to the concerned companies.

India Telemarketing a Thing of the Past...?
With voice account outsourcing, especially lead verification, services moving to the Philippines one must ask himself if there is still any advantage moving there for telemarketing services.

Sites like outsourcetoindia.org like to boast about some of the advantages (mainly cost) of telemarketing from the Philippines. But these sites fail to mention that there is a cost competitive location that offer competitive prices for all types of services (lead verification, telemarketing, customer service and data entry to name a few).

Sourcing Projects Across Destinations
Interesting release from Odesk .
This release states that the Philippines is getting better than average feedback scores for small outsourcing projects and is second behind India in total outsourcing providers. The interesting to note is the average hourly price for Filipino vendors. They are by far the most cost effective solution. Some of this has to do with the type of work being offered but their are obvious cost and quality synergies for sourcing there.
The following is a link to some Philippine Telemarketing Companies.

Virtual Assistant - Embracing Change
The days of Job Posts asking for an assistant who can "file" are over.
With everything being paperless now there is really no administrative task that can not be visualized. With the advent of web 2.0 things such as content writing, blogging and increasing one's social networks are relevant tasks that are time consuming and expensive. Outsourcing many of these tasks along with the standard appointment setting, appointment confirming, booking travel and drafting basic reports.
The at home and outsourced models have taken off and you see specialization with things such as REVA (Real Estate Virtual Assistants). This often one to on relationship can also create knowledge transfer that can benefit parties in disparate geographic regions. In addition you are seeing what virtual assistance entails is growing. Now follow-ups and basic telemarketing are just as likely to be added as correspondence.
It is in this process where things get interesting. One can imagine a scenario where a virtual assistant would be a group of people providing front and back end services to allow the business owner to focus on core activities. A web development company that outsources sales, back office HR/Payroll, Recruiting and Finance so it can focus on it basic business.
Expect to see continued differentiation as well as increased depth of knowledge for specialized virtual assistants.
