A friend of mine wants to start cold calling to sell his services. He wants to start on a good footing. Can I get advice here?
He thinks subscribing to a Skype number is the best way, considering he will be using VoIP as he stays in India. Is he right?
After that, is the Skype number used directly with Skype software or there are other better softwares?
How about hardware?
Also anything like software to manage everything?
He knows he will buy contact lists.

Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks
 
Don't rely too much on Skype
Can ban you if people complain
I heard Skype don't like cold calling

You can use outreach then import a mobile number from the country you're targeting.

Some countries have laws on cold calling though.

How do you mean by outreach?
The target market is T1 countries, US/Canada, UK, Australia
 
We are working with squaretalk,commpeak,voicespin and some others(for different countries we use different providers because the rates are not the same )
as for predictive calling system i will recommend vicidial (is open source) easy to modify and configure.

I use vyke and it has worked fine for me.
 
So what's your setup? What type of hardware do you use? Anything else for hardware or software?

i suggest to use software like zoiper or bria(xlite)
 
Any known alternatives?
Amazon Connect is pretty good for cold calling. That's what I've used whenever I've needed to do a bit of cold calling. It's pay as you go for phone calls and he can receive incoming calls as well if people call back in.
