The Lead Generation Specialist position is mainly a communications position performing teleprospecting functions. You will utilize your professional communication, your research and interviewing skills, as well as your marketing and sales skills. The Lead Generation Specialist (LGS) calls companies and talks to professionals about their business needs and initiatives. They identify the most appropriate decision-maker in the company (usually a director, Vice-President) by speaking with multiple company representatives. They then initiate a conversation with the decision-maker to introduce our client's products and services, educate the decision-maker on what value our client has to offer, asks questions of the decision-maker and their business and then decides if the company would be a good fit for our client's to work with. When they have identified a sales-ready lead, it gets passed along to our client's sales team.
The LGS's mainly use the phone and e-mail to communicate with their assigned companies. After each contact they make with the company, the LGS documents the result of each call, updates the database and produces clear and concise notes.
There are also a number of meetings for the LGS to attend and actively participate in, such as client meetings (usually via conference call), team meetings and company meetings.
