American Support: Proven Telesales Results For Over 20 Years
American Support: Proven Telesales Results For Over 20 Years

Chapel Hill, NC (PRWEB) July 08, 2013 -- American Support is taking a wildly different approach to hiring by telling its applicants that they are “supposed to quit this job”, to “step all over us” and even going so far as saying “don’t work for us.”

American Support has been providing telesales services for over 20 years and believes that its applicants will find this type of straight talk during the hiring process refreshing.

"...our ideal candidates don’t want a career path in telesales. They want a good job, for now."
President & CEO Matt Zemon

Post this

“Many contact centers talk about career paths and advancement opportunity and the reality is that with few exceptions, these opportunities don’t exist,” said company President and CEO Matt Zemon. “Even more important, our ideal candidates don’t want a career path in telesales. They want a good job, for now. They then want to move on with their lives. We understand and respect that.”

A significant amount of the American Support team comes from three specific demographics: college students, work-at-home moms and military spouses. According to American Support these three groups are a significant part of its 20-year track record of telesales success for many of the largest companies in America.

“We have been teaching people how to sell for 20 years,” Zemon continues. “College students, work-at-home moms and military spouses are typically over educated and under employed. We are a stepping stone job for them and they are excellent employees for us. This hiring campaign is our way of embracing this relationship for what it is- temporary and mutually beneficial.”

American Support has always been a different kind of company. While many call centers were moving off shore, American Support changed its name from "Evergreen Sales & Marketing" to “American Support” to celebrate the fact that it has 100% U.S.-based contact centers.

In the next 90 days American Support needs to hire over 200 employees to work in one of its three Florida call centers, its Tennessee call center or as a work-at-home employee in the 20+ states they hire in.

While there are a 9 different recruiting advertisements currently being run by American Support in its push to find 200 employees, three that are getting particular attention are:

Advertisement Targeting College Students:
WE CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO QUIT. There are not a lot of jobs out there for college students today. Telesales beats the heck out of fast food and retail jobs. We don’t make you stand on your feet all day. You’ll never burn yourself on a fryer. We know how to sell and how to teach anyone how to sell. We’ve been doing this for more than 20 years. After you master our proven sales techniques you will have practical experience to bring to the next phase of your life. When you are ready to move on we’ll be your biggest cheerleader (and reference) for your next job. American Support: Inbound and outbound telesales. Now hiring part time employees for call centers in Florida, Tennessee and work-at-home positions in select states. American Support: A great job, for now.

Advertisement Targeting Military Spouses:
MARCH ALL OVER US. Your spouse is in the military and you are over educated and underemployed. Telesales is not your long-term ambition and we get that. We are a stepping stone job for you while you are in this very specific life situation. We know how to sell and how to teach anyone how to sell; we’ve been doing this for more than 20 years. Come work for us for a while- in most cases if you are transferred you can take our job with you. At some point we know you’ll return to your life’s ambition and while we’ll miss you, we’ll celebrate your opportunity. American Support: Inbound and outbound telesales. Now hiring part time employees for call centers in Florida, Tennessee and work-at-home positions in select states. American Support: A great job, for now.

Advertisement Targeting Work-At-Home Moms:
YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO QUIT THIS JOB. You have young kids and you want to be available for them. You need to work a few hours a day to earn some additional money and ideally do it from the comfort of your own home. You need a temporary solution that works for the schedule you need now. We understand all that. Come work with us for a while. We know how to sell and how to teach anyone how to sell; We’ve been doing this for more than 20 years. At some point life will settle down and you’ll be ready to return to your life before staying at home with the kids- and we’ll celebrate that day with you. American Support: Inbound and outbound telesales. Now hiring part time employees for call centers in Florida, Tennessee and work-at-home positions in select states. American Support: A great job, for now.

ABOUT AMERICAN SUPPORT:
Since 1989 American Support has delivered exceptional inbound and outbound telesales results. With four US-based Contact Centers and highly trained Virtual Agents across the country, American Support's clients can count on consistent sales performance. American Support is proud to be creating jobs here at home and is specifically focused on hiring veterans and military spouses whenever possible.
