Call times are a variable to test, just like targeting and script. Compare slots on similar lists before changing your organization.

Day of the week

No single day is best for all sectors. Compare days on your own list, keeping target and script comparable.

Finding your own slots

  1. 1Divide a week into six two-hour slots.
  2. 2Call at least one hundred comparable numbers in each slot.
  3. 3Note only the pick-up rate and the number of conversations over two minutes.
  4. 4Then concentrate 70% of your volume on the two best slots.

Repeat the exercise twice a year: market habits shift, especially after changes in work organization.
