FAQ
frequently asked questions
In April 1994, we opened our call center – TeleMarketing Resource Services. With the support of some of the leading companies in the financial and insurance industries, TeleMarketing Resource Services quickly became one of the leading telemarketing firms in the United States. In 2000, a decision was made to change the name of the company from TeleMarketing Resource Services to TeleContact Resource Services in order to better encompass the more advanced services that the company now offered. The company then incorporated in 2008 as eContactLive, Inc., and filed a DBA as TeleContact Resource Services which we continue to utilize.

Answer 5: Where do you get your lists?
We partner with Dun & Bradstreet, who has been in business since 1841 and boasts the highest percentages for list data accuracy. We will procure a list for you based on your desired demographics, geographics, types of industries, employee size, annual revenue, and many other selections. Your Accounts Manager will help you determine your target audience to increase your market share and insure the success of your campaign.

Our proprietary call center software has been developed specifically for our business model. Your exclusive database will never be exposed to potential hackers on the internet! Your confidential information will be protected behind our industrial strength firewall and data infrastructure 24X7X365. You will receive notification of your leads via email, however, we will be happy to export your leads to be suitable to import into your own contact manager upon request.
Answer 7: Can I listen in live, while the agents are making calls?
Yes, you can listen in to the calls being made by appointment only, to prevent unauthorized monitoring of another client's campaign. Contact your Accounts Manager for details.

In a recent study, we found that 92% of our customers who signed up for a trial campaign re-signed with us to continue our excellent service!.
Answer 9: Do you have references?
Yes, we have references available upon request as well as numerous testimonials, however references will be provided from an industry different than yours to preserve exclusivity and avoid a conflict of interest.
Answer 10: How long have you been in business?
We have been providing excellent service for more than 20 years, and are proud to carry an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau as an Accredited Member since 1994.
Answer 11: What type of dialer does your call center use?
We have live agents on the phone. We do not use a predictive dialing system. We have an automated system that allows our agents to maintain a high level of efficiency. We also have the capability to mask the caller id with a number of your choice. This creates a very seamless relationship with our clients and creates the illusion of having our agents calling directly out of your office. Plus with a local area code showing in the caller id, the contact rate increases significantly.
Answer 12: How do I know you are actually making my calls?
We have been in business for more than 20 years and uphold an A+ rating with the BBB. We would not have been in business for this long if our clients were not happy with our services. Many of our clients have partnered with us for several years as we continue to help them grow their businesses.
Answer 13: How are your agents compensated?
All of our agents receive commission based on the success of the campaign they are calling for. The more leads they generate the more money they will make. This creates a win-win solution for both the Agent and our Clients. To ensure quality, we do not pay out the commission until each lead is checked by our Quality Control department for accuracy, qualifying criteria, legitimacy, and the quality assurance recording is reviewed.
