Who will make the calls for my business?
I will. You’ll work directly with me on the preparation, calling, and follow-up outlined in our agreement.
Why work with you instead of a calling agency?
If you’re concerned about not knowing who is calling, having little visibility into the work, or receiving meetings without a clear reason to talk, those are the questions to ask before choosing any calling partner.
With Skindle, I prepare and make the calls myself. We agree on who to reach and what makes a worthwhile next step. You can see the calls, outcomes, and buyer feedback, and meetings come with the context your team needs. You have direct access to the person representing your business.
Can you help us transition to our own sales team?
Yes—if building your own team is the plan, my goal is to help you get there. The calls help us test targeting and messaging, document objections, and refine the playbook as we learn.
When you’re ready to hire, your callers can start with that knowledge and the Skindle workspace instead of starting from scratch. We can plan the handoff around your team’s timing and agree on any support you need. You can also work with me without committing to a future hire.
How much does the calling service cost?
Let’s chat about what you sell, who you want to reach, and the work you need covered. I’ll recommend a scope and provide a quote before we start.
How does this compare with hiring a Sales Development Representative?
A useful planning example is around $114,000 a year: $75,000 in salary and variable pay, $32,000 in employer benefits and payroll costs, and $7,000 in tools. This is an illustrative budget, not an industry average or a quote. Actual costs vary by role, location, benefits, and software.
That example covers the representative, not the manager. Add the time and cost of someone setting targets, coaching calls, reviewing results, and keeping the rep accountable—whether that is you or a sales manager. If you hire a manager, their compensation and employer costs are additional; if an existing manager takes it on, allocate the share of their time spent supporting the rep. Recruiting and time to ramp add to the commitment too.
Working with me gives you another way to start prospecting, test your message, and build a foundation for your own callers. You work directly with the person preparing and making the calls. We agree on the scope and price before we begin.
Can you help if we don’t already have a campaign?
Yes. We can define a focused audience, message, and next step, then test the approach through real conversations.
Do I need to use the software to work with you?
You do not need to be a software user to discuss or run a campaign with me. The calling service and standalone software are separate options.
Is Skindle software or a calling service?
Both are available separately. Skindle is a workspace for people making cold calls. I also offer hands-on B2B calling for businesses that need someone to run a campaign.
Does the Skindle workspace make the calls?
Yes, if you want it to. Skindle has a dialer available: calls go out from the call screen, and the outcome and the note are filed on the record when the call ends. You can also keep calling from your existing dialer, desk phone, or mobile phone and log the call there. If you want someone else to make the calls, that is the calling service above.
What do we need to get started with the workspace?
Your company and product information, plus any scripts, buyer notes or objection answers you already have. If you’re starting from scratch, I can help build the first version.
