This is the first step in our lead generation and appointment setting process. Here we work with you to understand your business, the environment it operates in and your customers. This allows us to
- Understand your goals and pain points
- Know the micro and macro factors affecting your business
- Create personas of the ideal customer and how your business adds value to them
Target
Now that we have defined your target audience and understand your business environment, next, we identify a channel or multiple channels that will give you the best engagement and ROI. At 360 Leads, we use LinkedIn Ads, Google Ads, Outbound Calling, Email Marketing, Content Marketing and Public Relations as channels to generate B2B leads and nurture them. We often see our clients select two or more channels to get the best result for their B2B appointment setting campaign.
After selecting the channels, we place KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) to measure campaign performance. KPIs are especially useful because they indicate how the campaigns are working for you throughout the entire buying journey.
Acquire
This is the final stage where we run a carefully crafted campaign to generate leads and set qualified appointments. While your campaigns are running, we are constantly A/B testing to see what works best with your target audience. Based on the data that we collect, we adjust your campaign to optimize it further, giving you the best results for your appointment setting needs. Once we have generated the leads, our appointment setters will reach out to the prospects to set qualified appointments.

It requires lots of time and effort to yield the right results. Using B2B lead generation services will get you set appointments with the right people. It will allow you to focus on closing the deal and selling to qualified leads.
Sales lead generation is on business leaders’ minds for a reason.
Companies of every size are prioritizing ongoing B2B lead generation as it sustains topline business growth. So, why is it that their B2B appointment setting, and lead generation programs are not delivering sufficient, qualified sales leads? Well, this might be due to:
- Insufficient budget invested
- Internal company issues impacting lead generation performance
- Poor or limited marketing channel selection
- Data list quality issues
- Poor sales opportunity qualification
- Poor lead capture and lead nurture campaigns or processes
- Not working with the right B2B appointment setting services company
- Other
The inability to hit B2B lead generation targets may result from companies lacking a clear lead generation strategy as part of their broader business development plan. This could stem from a lack of alignment between sales and marketing functions, among other possible issues at play. Though many companies are active in lead generation appointment setting and lead nurturing programs, to get better results you may consider working with a B2B appointment setting company and:
- Examining your channel choices, measuring ROI, eliminating what isn’t working, and doing more of what is.
- Combining a mix of tactics anchored by relevant offers to build effectiveness across all channels.
- Matching budget priorities to growth objectives to ensure lead generation is sufficiently resourced and that B2B appointment setting with relevant contacts is materializing.

OUR APPOINTMENT SETTING PROCESS

Our lead generation and appointment setting services start with identifying and defining your target audience. We work with you to understand the companies and the contacts within the target industries that would most benefit from a conversation with your sales team about your product/services. We also create customer personas. This is crucial because customer personas help us to understand your buyer’s demographics, motivation, needs, and pain points. In short, the personas enable us to have a strong introductory conversation with your ideal leads. As well, we use the personas to develop relatable lead generation campaigns and ultimately put you in conversation with the decision-makers you want to target and convert.
Before we start setting appointments and generating high-quality leads, we do our research. First and foremost, we get to know you. We work to understand your UVP (Unique Value Proposition). What is it that sets you apart from others in your space? We need to understand this to pique the interest of your target prospect. As well, we will gather data on micro and macro factors affecting your industry. We will collect information on competition, customers and suppliers that affect your business. The macro analysis looks at political, economic, socio-cultural, and technological factors associated with your industry. We need this information to have as rich a conversation as possible with your prospect pool.
At 360 Leads, we use multiple channels to find B2B leads and set appointments with them. We assist you in identifying channels that will give you the best engagement, conversion, and ROI. Our channel expertise lies in the following areas:
- Outbound Marketing
- Digital Marketing
- Content Marketing & Public Relations
- Direct Marketing
In this stage, we present the B2B lead generation strategy that will be used to set the most qualified appointments possible for you. The strategy will contain the target audience, message and positioning and channels used to deliver the message. We also present Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to monitor the success of your campaigns. KPIs will give a clear view of how your campaign is performing throughout, and the information will allow us to further optimize your campaigns.
Once our B2B lead generation campaigns identify sales leads, we start to fill your sales pipeline with qualified appointments so that your sales team can do what they do best. Sell!
Depending on the duration of your campaign, we will regularly provide you with reports and insights on your B2B lead generation efforts. The insights from the campaign will allow you to understand campaign performance and learn more about your target audience to aid in major business decisions.

LEAD GENERATION AND APPOINTMENT SETTING FAQ'S
that answer common questions about B2B sales lead generation
What is appointment setting services?
Appointment Setting Services is a part of the lead generation process where we identify leads and nurture them to a point where they are ready to speak to a sales representative for more information. The result of the B2B appointment setting is a qualified lead. A lead is considered qualified when they have the power to make decisions, are fully aware of your organization and your offerings and are ready to know more to make a decision that will help them. In other words, they are hot leads that your sales team can close effortlessly. Appointment setting services are also seen as growing and building sales pipelines. At 360 Leads, we offer B2B appointment setting among other B2B lead generation services.
How do B2B appointment setting services work?
B2B Appointment Setting starts by identifying your ideal target audience, based on which we create a B2B database list of potential sales leads that are likely to use your product or service. Or we generate leads via LinkedIn Ads, Google Ads, content marketing and public relations. These leads are then nurtured with outbound calls and emails. The messages are very specific to their buying journey because one message does not suit all. Once the lead is qualified and interested in knowing more about your product or service, we hand them over to your sales team or add them to your sales pipeline. The best appointment setting companies offer a full suite of integrated services to build lead generation effectiveness across all channels.
How are appointment setters different from sales representatives?
While the primary focus of a sales representative is to close the sale, the job of appointment setters is to qualify a solid B2B lead. It requires two skills, that is identifying and nurturing. First, appointment setters need to identify and nurture major decision-makers into potential sales leads. Second, once the appointment is set by the appointment setter, your sales representative needs to do what they do best: sell!
How do hired appointment setters get a qualified lead?
Appointment setters identify potential sales leads and qualify them. They reach out to prospective leads with information about your products and service. The nurturing is not done with one phone call. It is a constant effort that involves multiple emails and calls that help qualify a good B2B sales lead. The callers monitor and record all activities with a potential lead and are trained to identify the behaviour of leads that are likely to qualify. The final step is to set an appointment with the qualified leads and your sales team.
Will the hired appointment setters call from 360 Leads or my organization?
Yes, our callers will be an extension of your team. They will call as representatives from your organization. The potential sales lead behind the phone will have no idea he is talking to someone from a B2B appointment setting company. The transition from appointment setters to your sales representative will be seamless as well because our appointment setters capture the whole picture when they hand in qualified appointments to your sales representatives. They record all conversations, activities, emails, engagement, and notes from the conversations to help your sales representative close the deal.

What do we do once we get a qualified lead?
