We make the appointments, you close the deals.
99% of people I work with in 'sales' roles in international education do NOT like 'cold' calling through lists of agents.
They, quite rightly, follow the 'hot' leads they already spent time with.
And yet, time and time again I have proved that schools are just leaving money on the table (or..in the CRM/excel sheet).
Imagine if I could magically put highly qualified appointments with targeted agents in your diary?

99% of people I work with in 'sales' roles in international education do NOT like 'cold' calling through lists of agents.
Don't be cross that they're not doing this 'cold calling' work.
They, quite rightly, follow the 'hot' leads they met at that workshop, or know from way back. They chase the bookings.
So - we take the rest of those lists and make MORE appointments for you and your team to move forwards into a beautiful partnership with new agents. Ready to roll.

NICE TO MEET YOU
I'm Nicola Lutz
After training thousands of people in international education with No Fluff, I realised that some people can have all the training, and all the best intentions, but don't have time (or will, sometimes) to put in hours of work cold calling through lists of potential partners.
One client wailed 'Can't you do it for me?', and I realised that extra help was needed.
As I am passionate about helping our industry thrive, I need to deliver the action - not just the 'how to'.
Some of our clients are small schools with 2-3 people in sales and marketing and stretched for time. Others are chains of schools that want their BDMs focusing on the 'hotter' leads that are coming in, and often have their teams on the road, with no capacity for hours of prospecting calls.
And so, Extra Sales Power was born.
In terms of credentials..

Example
Sample list of 1000 agents from 2018.
1000+ calls made. Not all were successfully connected, but were then 'cleaned' (side benefit..updated data in your CRM).
7 different target countries.
Out of 1000 agents on the list:
108 appointments
with agents that we confirmed were:
ready to talk; interested in their location; able to send students to their programs.
Then what..?
Out of those 108 meetings, 50 have so far gone on for even further discussions with more detail about pricing, commission, training etc.
Based on an average small UK language school, each onboarded agent is 'worth' around £5000.
50 hot leads x £5000 = £250,000
Pricing - from £3000 (which is around £30 per meeting)
