Outbound measurements:

Hi Seids:

The most common metrics used in outbound sales are:


Calls made per hour
Sales Rate
Sales per hour
Leads per hour
Contact Rate
Man Hour
Approval Rate
TSR productivity
Channel productivity

I have been looking for more metrics, but those are the only ones i have collected.

Hope this helps!

Regards,

Sara

Sale to Offer Ratio

An agent level metric that we find useful is the Sale to Offer Ratio. In order to gauge an agent's selling skills, we defined our Contacts into two categories - Contact (No Offer) and Offer Presented. We hold the agents accountable on how successful they are at converting a Contact, where an offer is presented, into a sale.

Thanks AlletX

Very interesting metric!

I have not seen it in my 3 years of experience in TMK...do you think this have been because I´ve been in manual enviroment?

Nusiance calls

Nusiance calls are where the customer picks up the phone and there's no one there to answer the call otherwise known as "silent calls"
Kingston software records this as nusiance calls

Ofcom released new guidelines this year in relation to outbound calling
I found this link that might help:
