A power dialer calls one number at a time from your contact list, so reps stop entering numbers by hand. Trellus adds it to your CRM or sales engagement platform through a Chrome extension, so reps keep calling from the lists and queues they already work.
Review the contact, make the call and log the outcome before moving to the next person. The Power plan is $99.99 a month and includes voicemail drop, 5 additional phone numbers with spam remediation and power dialing on all supported platforms, including Google Sheets and Clay.
A power dialer is outbound calling software that calls one number at a time from a contact list. It removes manual number entry while giving the rep a single contact to review, call and log before continuing.
When each contact needs a closer read: callbacks, warm leads and accounts you have researched. For a prepared list where waiting through rings is the real cost, a parallel dialer may fit better.
Power dialer vs. parallel dialer vs. predictive dialer.
Choose power dialing when you need to review each contact before making the call. Use parallel dialing to reach people on a prepared outbound list. Trellus does not offer predictive dialing.
