Telemarketing services, without the monthly retainer
Thousands of self-employed phone sellers across Europe, a manager who runs the campaign for you from £995 a month, and selling that is billed per verified outcome rather than per hour.
Telemarketing services is a broad term for a narrow problem: you need people on the phone selling your product, and you do not want to hire, train and roster them yourself. What differs between providers is not really the calling. It is what you are billed for while the calling happens.
What an agency bills you for
Capacity. A retainer, a seat rate or an hourly rate buys you a team for a period, and the invoice arrives whether that period produced sales or silence. It is a reasonable model for the agency, which carries the payroll, and an expensive one for you in any month where the offer does not land.
What we bill you for
Two things, and they are separate. The commission you set is paid on each outcome the campaign verifies, so nothing is owed for calls that do not convert. The managed tier adds a monthly fee, from £995, for platform access and a named manager. The difference from a retainer is what the money buys: a retainer buys hours whether or not they sell. This fee buys the campaign being run, while the selling stays per outcome.
Marketplace or managed
| Marketplace | Managed | |
|---|---|---|
| Up front | £500 per campaign | One-time, from £995, setups included |
| Recurring | Retainer for capacity, hours billed either way | From £995 a month for management. Hours never billed |
| Who runs the campaign | You do, self-serve | A named campaign manager |
| Script and compliance | You submit, we approve | Written and approved for you |
| Seller recruitment | Sellers find your campaign | Recruited against your brief |
| Reporting | Dashboard | Dashboard and a monthly review |
| Paid per verified sale | Yes | Yes |
| Billed for calls that do not sell | Never | Never |
Both tiers pay sellers the same way: a commission you set, on sales the customer has confirmed and that have survived the 14-day cooling-off period.
What the monthly fee covers
Platform access, a named campaign manager, the campaign builds, script and compliance approval for your sector, DNC screening in every market you run in, and recorded calls. Setups are included, so a new campaign never carries its own fee.
Why a management fee rather than a retainer
A retainer prices capacity: hours and seats, billed whether or not they convert, which is why agency relationships spend their energy justifying the hours. This fee prices management, and the selling itself is billed only per verified outcome. What is left to judge each month is the only thing worth judging: what the campaign actually produced.
What the manager does
Writes the brief with you and gets the script through compliance. Recruits sellers against the campaign instead of waiting for them to find it. Watches the first week of calls closely, and tells you plainly when the offer rather than the calling is the problem. That last part is the reason the role exists.
What you get on the managed tier
The ones that decide it
What do telemarketing services include?
At minimum: callers, a dialer, screened numbers, an approved script and someone accountable for the campaign. An agency retainer bundles them into a price for capacity. Here they are bundled into a monthly management fee, and the selling itself is billed per verified outcome, never per hour.
How much do telemarketing services cost in the UK?
Agencies quote a retainer or an hourly seat rate that buys capacity, billed whether or not the calls convert. The managed tier here is from £995 a month for platform access and a named campaign manager, setups included, with commission paid only on outcomes the campaign verifies. Hours are never billed.
Is there a managed option, or is it self-serve only?
Both. The marketplace is self-serve, with a £500 setup per campaign and nothing recurring. The managed tier adds a named campaign manager who writes the brief, approves the script, recruits against your campaign and reports on it, for a monthly fee from £995, setups included.
Do you provide B2B telemarketing services?
Yes. B2B campaigns run against corporate TPS screening, with recorded calls and written confirmation from the signatory before anything is billed.
