The biggest issue that we were trying to address was streamlining our calling and connection process. We were struggling to get a sufficient connection rate on our cold calls to acquire new business. We use ConnectAndSell to not only streamline this process but also increase our call activity by 120%.
  • Auto connects
  • Easily helps multi-task
  • Builds lead lists
  • More clarity and instruction
  • Call quality has consistently been an issue.
  • Implementation has taken a considerable amount of time.
ConnectAndSell is incredibly helpful when it comes to getting people on the phone. In the world of sales, dials and connects are king and connect and sell works great to hit these two points. The ability to create lists is great, however, I would like to see more customizable options available for end-users to play around with.
  • Call lists
  • Auto connection
  • Phone number matching based on Area Code

ConnectAndSell allows a sales rep to sit at their desk and be served up with only conversations with decision makers from a pre-uploaded list that you create. It's like going to batting practice as a sales reps - balls just keep coming over the plate. CAS an ideal tool for companies that hit the expansion stage and need to have far more conversations with target prospects and leads (A or B round of funding). Let their technology do the work of getting executives on the phone while you focus on having high quality conversations. With CAS one sales person can do the work of two.
  • Solves problem of getting prospects on the phone
  • Do the work of 3 reps with 1
  • Strong service support model
  • Sales rep needs to be good at conducting phone calls with prospects who aren't expecting their call.
  • It would be better to have a list view.
  • Nothing else.
ConnectAndSell is less applicable for companies with more established markets where getting people on the phone doesn't have as high a correlation to revenue production.

  • Ramp up times improve dramatically as sales reps get far more 'at bats.'
  • Nothing else

For the right reps who are good at talking to prospects who aren't expecting their call, this is a no brainer.
