Outbound sales is a numbers game—and without the right CRM, valuable leads can slip through the cracks. Nutshell’s outbound sales CRM helps your team call faster, email smarter, and automate follow-ups so no opportunity is missed.
Outbound sales is the process of proactively reaching out to prospects who haven’t contacted you yet—through phone calls, cold emails, LinkedIn outreach, or other direct methods. Unlike inbound sales (where buyers find you), outbound sales require persistence and organization to generate interest.
Bevæbnet med lead-lister bruger outbound-sælgere en stor del af deres dag på at hamre løs på telefonerne (og deres tastaturer) og fortælle om fordelene ved deres virksomheds tilbud til folk, der passer til deres ideelle køberpersonaer.
Compared to inbound sales teams, outbound sales reps need to put in more effort upfront to educate their prospects on what they’re selling. Continuous prospecting is also important. Whether it’s by shaking hands at networking events or doing research on social media platforms, outbound sellers have to find creative ways to add new names to their contact lists.
With the right tools and determination, outbound sellers can be incredibly successful. In fact, 69% of buyers have accepted cold calls from new providers in the past year. But it often takes eight or more touches to reach a decision-maker, and without a structured CRM, those follow-ups often fall through the cracks.
An outbound sales CRM is built to handle this grind. It equips reps with the tools to make more calls, send more emails, and track every interaction—so persistence pays off.
