How many here call for appointments versus door knocking all leads?
Appointment Setting Methods
- Thread starter fredmac
- Start date
1. Appointment setters calls and sets appts.
2. I go to appt and write apps.
3. I only door knock leads where the appt setter cant get in touch with them.
4. If they tell my appt setter to pound sand I add their name and number to the craigslist man 4 man or women 4 women casual encounters area

Do you mind saying if you personally employ the appointment setter or if you use a service? If using a service, is there one you recommend?

It all works some of the time.
I prefer pre-set appointments because there is nothing more exciting have 8-11 already done-for-you appointments; you know you're going to write something!
I've done more door-knocking as of late; even though it is less efficient than having a bunch of appointments set, you will definitely get more opportunities for appointments face-to-face than setting them over the phone.
Many of these people never answer the phone, and the first person to show up usually is the one to sell them.

I make recommendations based on the agent's "phone talent" and amount of regular weekly leads
1. 20 Leads or less a week should be Door Knocked only
2. 30+ Leads a week, call and set appointments and door knock in between / If you're not good on the phone, make a few calls off each batch of leads until your confidence level and phone abilities get better
3. 40+ Leads then you should be calling all the leads
Finding a good appointment setter is like going into the casino to gamble. You might win but most likely, will lose your ass. I ran through several setters before finding one that wasn't horrible. She get's appointments off of 50%-60% of our leads.
An agent that uses an appointment setter should already be successful and in the frame of mind to up his lead count and have more sits/sales.
Just my opinion!
And take into account what agent 5 said. He ran thru several before he found one that wasn't horrible.Thats saying a lot as this appt setter has an allegiance to agent 5.If another agent used her she wouldn't do nearly as good a job for them as her main priority is taking care of Doug and I don't blame them. It shows how hard it is to find a setter who won't burn thru your leads.

I started giving my appt setter 'surprise' bonuses. That definitely helps with loyalty.
