With the effects of the current economic downturn spurring companies to cut expenses on a broad scale, the
notion of moving sales efforts to an outsourced model may not be the first instinctual solution. However, especially
during times of economic tightening, outsourcing simultaneously addresses both primary fiscal concerns: cutting
costs and generating new revenue.
Externalizing sales and marketing functions provides a wide and varied host of solutions at an affordable cost
while simultaneously showing a reduction in overhead and reallocating labor to a variable expense. Additionally,
outsourcing effectively reduces market risk as a quota-bearing model with no associated ramp-up cost or need to
invest in new internal head count.
Outsourced sales and marketing models provide significant benefits to corporations watching their bottom line—in
a spectrum of ways. The cost-efficiency of a contracted program is maximized as the outsourced partner is
able to bring channel expertise to the formula coupled with the brevity of a near-immediate launch. Additionally,
extensive market research facilitates a refined target with maximum productivity potential. The overhead savings
of an outsourced model coupled with quota-bearing productivity combine to make the right outsourcing program
a cost-efficient and highly-expedient solution for today’s tight sales budget.
