Best Review
"As of right now, I’m extremely happy with them. The quality has been great. I was a little bit worried at first, but the research that they’ve done to get up to speed with what our quality lead or client would be has been good. We filled out a lot of paperwork for them to do the research and learn, and they’ve done a really good job. I have zero complaints."

This category shows the outbound data reporting, outbound orchestration tools, and CRM integrations that are included in each company’s standard service. The workflow platform denotes the presence of proprietary prospecting tools used to assure the quality of messaging and precise activity at scale.
Outbound Services
There are five primary channels that should be considered mandatory for any multi-channel prospecting campaign, here coined as, “Orchestrated Outbound.” Providing unique, surround-sound style prospecting experiences require orchestrating campaigns that reach persona-based audiences across email, phone, social, web + chat, and ad channels.
