Tina Richards

Telemarketing Executive

Tina is an experienced telemarketing professional. She loves cold calling which you don't hear very often and has built a reputation for being able to find decision makers and secure appointments across a wide range of industry sectors.

Giving the right impression at the first point of contact is a skill that comes with experience, and her ability to speak to anyone on the phone is her greatest asset.

She always enjoyed talking to new people, and when combined with good organisational skills and a tenacious attitude, this leads to breaking down barriers and appointments in the diary!

When not hunting down appointments Tina is usually mucking out a horse and running an active family.
