Teledirect Partners Launches Professional Organization for Telesales Executives
9/15/2006, Boston, MA — Teledirect Partners announced today the launch of the Telesales Forum, a professional organization that focuses on topics that are of interest to Telesales executives and senior managers responsible for Telesales organizations.
“The Telesales Forum is focused on providing an environment where Telesales executives can come together to examine and discuss topics that are important to their business and that address their unique concerns”, said Denise Clancey, President of Teledirect Partners and Founder of the Telesales Forum. “In conversations with my clients, it became obvious there was a real need for a peer information sharing environment for Telesales executives. They have unique needs that are not completely addressed by traditional professional organizations. A forum did not exist so I decided to create one.”
The first meeting, held today in Waltham, MA, was titled ‘The Telesales Talent Challenge: Finding and attracting Telesales talent is half the battle, getting their hearts and minds is the other half’. Tom Wilson, President, The Wilson Group and Lee Hoffstein, Founding Partner, Woodlyn Partners, Inc. made up the expert panel.
“The Telesales Forum is filling a significant void in my professional world”, said Joanne Wills of JKW Consults. “Telesales is a unique industry. When my schedule allows me to meet with other Telesales executives, I am always focused on sharing ideas and lessons learned. I learned a few new things at today’s meeting and met people I would never have the opportunity to meet otherwise. I appreciate that Teledirect Partners has put this meeting together and I have already put a hold on my calendar for the next meeting.”
