"When interest in our digital transformation services surged to a record high we needed help with outreach as our sales and marketing teams were at capacity. With no time for internal hiring we knew that outsourcing this critical function would be our best option. We received a referral to Next Call who immediately impressed us with their understanding of our business, their extensive industry knowledge and experience in our sectors. Following a quick and easy onboarding process, Next Call seamlessly stepped into the business to fulfil our outreach activities, delivering qualified leads and using a personable approach that our target audiences appreciated. Next Call's results have been outstanding as they have helped to develop a sizeable pipeline for our business, along with an enhanced database and many new prospects. We have a great working relationship with Next Call who are truly collaborative and we view as an extension to our own team. We look forward to continuing this relationship long into the future."
Tara McLaughlin, Sales & Marketing Manager, Ajar Technology
"Lawrence and Next Call have been true partners in Humanyze's regional expansion. Even with regular changes to our messaging and go-to-market strategy, I could always count on Lawrence to be proactive and creative in delivering quality leads to support our growth. He thinks outside the box, is thoughtful about outreach methodology and messaging, and is a responsive, flexible, and reliable team member. I've loved working with the Next Call team and highly recommend them to anyone looking to grow their presence in the UK and Europe."
Alexa Lightner - VP & General Manager, Europe
"I have worked closely with Next Call in my previous role and for 2 years at OneStream and they are, in my experience, the best lead generation organisation I have ever worked with. The entire team are extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic and comprehensive in their approach to demand generation. They have helped with building contacts in my territory, pushing for attendance at events, and booking meetings with `C' Level contacts. They provide regular feedback and work with the team to refine their approach to optimise the use of their time."
Jeremy Pickles, Account Manager, OneStream Software
"Working with Next Call was an easy decision; their experience with our partner, Onestream, meant they came to the table with understanding and prior knowledge of what our business does. We were able to explain the concepts of what we want to get across to prospects easily and the Next Call team absorbed this and understood it quickly. This meant the onboarding process was very streamlined. On an ongoing basis we’ve been able to work together easily and seamlessly quickly adapting and updating messaging and ideas as we go."
Kai Engel, Partner, Function Six
Hitachi Digital Services has been working with Next Call for a few years now and our working collaboration continues to go from strength to strength. Working closely with our sales teams to grow new business relationships, Next Call provide great insight, mature and measured support and are utterly reliable in delivering sales pipeline results. Not only do they provide detailed outreach analysis to show trends across projects, they bring fresh ideas and insights for new campaigns we're planning. I am delighted to see that we are getting so much traction with the recent campaigns over the last few months and I'll be reinforcing to our team the value of greater collaboration and time with briefings! We really are getting some super results!
Duncan Mears, Vice President EMEA, Hitachi Digital Services
“I’ve been selling for longer than I care to remember, and I’ve worked with a multitude of external cold calling agencies that have been very poor and your team has done an incredible job. The accounts were not easy ‘warm’ accounts and the penetration you’ve made with them, and the depth of engagement and qualified detail of information you’ve gleaned has been fantastic.”

The attention to detail and in depth feedback on calls and engagements is exceptional and has greatly helped me in multiple sales cycles. Nurturing the contacts and being able to further profile people gives a full picture of target accounts, invaluable when in discussion with them."
Paul Newman, Sales Manager, OneStream Software
"We were finding, despite generating a good number of leads from our marketing campaigns, we just didn’t have the capacity to follow them up in good time and some were falling through the cracks. That’s where Next Call came in and have really helped us to bridge the gap in business development.
The team at Next Call - Lyn and Shan - have been fantastic, they were keen to get going and it didn’t take us long to get them on-boarded and ready to go. They quickly understood how to handle questions and the most relevant information or follow-up content to provide. Their work and ability to unearth interesting and worthwhile leads has helped us have a clearer picture of our ideal client profile and meant we are better at ultimately qualifying them.
We have been so impressed with Next Call’s approach and results that we have expanded their work across additional campaigns which is having a really positive impact. We have really felt the benefit of working with the Next Call Team and the benefits and results that is bringing to our sales team."
Tabitha Taylor-Higginson, Head of Marketing, Inawisdom
