\u201cWe have had a partnership with Gabriel Media for 15 years.  From the Great Recession to Covid, Gabriel Media\u2019s Open House events have put millions of dollars in new business on our books. Their presentations are the most updated stories in our industry and it speaks to local business owners in a way that encourages them to buy advertising and digital! Plus, the sales training puts them over the top for my team!  I strongly encourage ANY media group to partner with them.\u201d

\u201cAfter having done many of these in these programs in the past, Gabriel Media \u201cgets it\u201d. You guys get the most out of my sales staff \u2013 evaluating their personalities and how to get the most out of them. Since we started working together in 2015, we have had huge success and everyone at KLBK \/ KAMC can not wait until next year when we get to hit another home-run together\u201d

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS<\/strong><\/h5>\n
A\u00a0Smart Market<\/b><\/a>\u00a0project takes 8 working days. Monday\u2013Friday of\u00a0SET-UP-WEEK<\/i><\/b>\u00a0and Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of\u00a0PRESENTATION WEEK<\/i><\/b>.<\/h5>\n
SET-UP WEEK INCLUDES:<\/h5>\n
1. A Gabriel representative will come to your market on Monday afternoon of\u00a0Set-Up-Week<\/i><\/b>\u00a0and conduct a meeting to show your sales staff the actual 30 minute\u00a0Smart Marketing<\/i><\/b>\u00a0presentation specific to your market. This will be the same presentation that we will make 4 times per day the next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Presentation times are 9AM, 11AM, 2PM\u00a0and 4PM<\/span><\/h5>\n
\u00a0<\/h5>\n
2.<\/span> We send a database of the businesses in your market to the management staff 3-4 weeks before we arrive so you have plenty of time to scrutinize the list and highlight any business you do not want us to contact. Then send the list back to us and we will delete them before we hand it over to the telemarketers.<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/h5>\n
3.<\/span> Our team of telemarketers will call thousands of businesses in your market Monday\u2013Friday<\/b>\u00a0of\u00a0Set-Up-Week<\/i><\/b>\u00a0<\/i>inviting them to come to one of our Smart Marketing <\/i><\/b><\/span>presentations. Management will approve the telemarketing script before the first call is made.<\/h5>\n
\u00a0<\/h5>\n
4.<\/span> Each evening the telemarketing company will email to your management the confirmed appointments they achieved that day. It will be somewhere between 50-80 appointments depending on market size. The next morning we conduct a sales meeting and distribute the confirmed appointments to your sales staff. Their job is to call the business owner and re-confirm the day and time they’ve committed to attend as soon as possible. Each seller then fills out a simple one page confirmation sheet and brings it to us. The Gabriel rep enters all appts in to a master spread sheet sorted by day\/time to hand back to the staff by the end of the week.
