The work

Tasks this hire takes

Cold calling for a marketing agency books the discovery call from a list the agency owns.

The strategist still runs the call and owns the offer.

Two jobs shape a normal week for marketing & creative agencies: Dial the list the agency cleaned, and read the script the strategist approved. Firms hire for that rhythm, not for an empty inbox.

  • Dial the list the agency cleaned

  • Read the script the strategist approved

  • Book discovery calls into the AE calendar

  • Log the objection in the CRM

  • Stop when the contact asks not to be called

Dial the list the agency cleaned. For marketing & creative agencies, that work sits beside The agency dialler or a power dialler you name. The principal still makes the call above it.

Read the script the strategist approved. Ask each finalist for marketing & creative agencies when they last did this, and whether they did it in The agency dialler or a power dialler you name.

The brief for marketing & creative agencies should treat this as a standing job: book discovery calls into the AE calendar. The agency dialler or a power dialler you name is where the office checks it.

Log the objection in the CRM. If the hire has not used The agency dialler or a power dialler you name, the first month for marketing & creative agencies includes learning it, and the principal still reviews the output.

Stop when the contact asks not to be called. For marketing & creative agencies, write down what done looks like, and who is told when it is finished.

Day one

Software in the brief

Name The agency dialler or a power dialler you name in the brief for marketing & creative agencies when the hire will use it in the first week.

Say whether HubSpot or the CRM is required on day one for marketing & creative agencies, or taught after the start.

A short task in The approved script can be part of the interview for marketing & creative agencies, if you want to see the work.

You grant access to A suppression list. For marketing & creative agencies, the hire should have that login before week two.

  • The agency dialler or a power dialler you name

  • HubSpot or the CRM

  • The approved script

  • A suppression list

The line

Compliance boundary

The hire does not invent an offer, change the price, or keep calling after an opt-out.

For marketing & creative agencies, the interview repeats the boundary above. The hire should be able to say what they will not decide.
