Executive Summary
Introduction
It is the mission of Roth & Calder Telemarketing Professionals, Inc. (R&C) to provide comprehensive telemarketing consultation and the creation of telemarketing advertising campaigns for our clients in the Cawleweton region. It is our long-term goal to become THE preferred business-to-business telemarketing agency for the East Coast area.
Our firm is not interested in simply producing a service for our clients. We believe in creating a long-term relationship with them so that the delivery of their message can reach the right people, at the right moment to ensure effective communication with their market.
The Company
Roth & Calder will be a limited liability partnership registered in the state of Delaware for tax purposes. Its founder is Mr. Thomas Roth, a former marketing executive with General Foods. Mr. Roth has brought together a highly respected group of marketing, development, and telemarketing specialists who, combined, have a total of 25 years of experience in this industry.
The company has a limited number of private investors and does not plan to go public. The company has its main offices in Cawleweton. The facilities include conference rooms and office spaces. The company expects to begin offering its services in January of Year 1.
The company’s potential clients will initially be all the companies in the Cawleweton area. We can service both small and large companies and provide virtually any consultation services in regards to telephone communications with clients.
The Services
In order to create the maximum effect for our clients, we provide a comprehensive program for them that may include some of the following services:
Identification of Program Objectives and Expectations Creation of customized lists of leads Market research Consultation and training of telemarketing personnel Script writing for programs Creation of follow-up programs for successful calls.
This is only a partial list of our services as each project is customized to our client and its scope, length, depth, reach, and cost are unique.
The Market
The telemarketing industry is, at the moment, a growing industry with most companies having an annual growth between 6.5% and 8%. This is due to businesses that are becoming increasingly aware of the need for market information and the desire to reduce customer turnover rates in a hard hit economy. However, long-term analysis of growth rates in this industry shows a cyclical pattern and R&C does not expect this high growth rate to continue.
The telemarketing industry is quite fragmented with companies that vary greatly in size, scope, services offered, and market share. Many companies are general advertising agencies that offer telemarketing services along with a wide range of other consulting services. In addition, many companies, not realizing the potential advantages of outsourcing, choose to develop their own telemarketing services.
R&C believes that the greatest threat at the moment is in new entrants to the market who perceive an opportunity in a “high” growth industry.
The most likely entrants will be existing advertising agencies wishing to horizontally integrate and enter new sub-markets. However, the one major disadvantage to new entrants is that all firms engaged in contracting to telemarketing agencies face significant switching costs when bringing on a new partner.
Furthermore, R&C understands that in this industry there is a significant learning curve that creates declining “unit” costs as a firm gains more cumulative experience in the field itself and with long-term clients specifically.
Rivalry among different telemarketing agencies as stated before is quite intense. The telemarketing industry as a whole is mature with long-term moderate growth. Most of the largest agencies are mutually dependent when it comes to jockeying for position and market share. The fact that there are so many diverse and seemingly “generic” or general telemarketing agencies makes this a cutthroat industry.
The threat of clients backwardly integrating so as to have all their advertising done in-house is one of the major factors that buyers use to indirectly control price in this industry, and increase competition among firms. This must always be foremost in the minds of R&C’s management when offering services and setting prices.
Financial Considerations
Start-up assets required include expenses and cash needed to support operations until revenues reach an acceptable level. Most of the company’s liabilities will come from outside private investors and management investment, however, we have obtained current borrowing from Bank of America Commercial Investments, the principal to be paid off in three years. A long-term loan through VieilArgent Bank of Richburb will be paid off in ten years.
