The Basics of the DPS Sales Team

The duties of the Inside Sales Rep all start with a lead. This could be a Web lead or a client referral. (Notice, we never use the word "customer." We work together with our clients in a joint partnership to find them a solution.)

Our website (www.dpstele.com) handles our Web marketing and generates most of our leads. Potential clients find us on Web by searching for a variety of different things. For example, someone might do a Web search looking for DPS products they're already familiar with. Another Web searcher might be hunting for products that support other equipment already in their network. Either way, a lead communicates to us via an inbound phone call, email, or online info request. This is where you come in.



Identifying Their Needs

One of the most important skills needed by an Inside Sales Rep is problem-solving. Many times, clients are not exactly sure what products or solutions they need. What they do know are the current problems they're facing with elements of their network. As the Inside Sales Rep, it's your job to guide them to the right products to solve their problems.

The Inside Sales Toolbox

In addition to our website, Inside Sales Reps are equipped with a variety of tools to keep track of client information as you guide them towards their perfect fit solution. Our in-house CRM tool stores the data for our large client base. Contact information, incoming/outbound emails, notes and client preferences are stored here.

To educate our clients on DPS products and services, our Sales Team also offers online Web demonstrations. These Web demos allow clients to get all the decision makers together at their company to learn more about how and why a DPS solution will benefit their company. Web demos are great visual aids that go beyond what you can do on the telephone. Our Sales Team can answer the client's questions live as we get closer and closer to finding their solution.

Proposing the Perfect Solution

Once you've accurately identified the client's need, they're ready for a proposal. These proposals are tailored for each client, and contain much more than just a 2-page "quote." As an Inside Sales Rep, you'll help create customized proposals with detailed application drawings of the solution, success stories from other clients, pricing breakdown, and much more.
