Hire Sales Development Representatives (SDRs) in Vietnam | Offshore Staffing by THIENTU BPO

However, hiring experienced SDRs locally can be both time-consuming and costly.

What Is a Sales Development Representative (SDR)?
A Sales Development Representative (SDR) is responsible for generating new business opportunities by reaching out to potential leads and qualifying them for further engagement with the sales team. SDRs use various methods such as cold calling, email outreach, and social selling to initiate contact, build relationships, and determine whether prospects are a good fit for the company’s products or services. Their ultimate goal is to convert leads into sales-qualified prospects and set appointments for the sales team to close deals.
