The hiring alternative

Your next salesperson costs more than their salary.

A £35,000 hire can represent a £60,000+ first-year investment once you include the costs that rarely appear in the job advert.

Recruitment, interviews, onboarding, equipment, systems, data, management time and months of ramp-up all absorb money and attention. And if the hire is wrong, you start again.

The Green Agents gives SMEs a quicker route to structured outbound sales—without adding another person to the payroll.

Good questions

Before you bring us into the conversation.

Still unsure whether outsourcing is right for your business? Let’s talk it through plainly.

Ask us something specific ↗
Will you understand our products and standards?+

That is the point of onboarding. We build a company sales knowledge base from your material and leadership input, then train the people and AI supporting your account against approved messaging, qualification rules and escalation points.

Is this just outsourced telesales?+

No. Calling matters, but it sits within a coordinated service covering targeting, data, email, LinkedIn, CRM hygiene, qualification and appointment setting.

How quickly can we start?+

Most programmes move from discovery into training and campaign preparation over a matter of weeks. Timing depends on the complexity of your offer and how quickly materials and approvals are available.

Do you guarantee sales or revenue?+

No credible partner should. We create consistent, measurable sales activity and qualified opportunities against agreed criteria. Commercial outcomes also depend on your offer, market, pricing and how opportunities are handled.

How do human and AI agents work together?+

AI supports research, preparation, personalisation, follow-up and administration. Trained people lead the conversations where judgement, empathy and trust matter. Every workflow follows your approved standards.

Do we keep visibility of the activity?+

Yes. Activity, notes, outcomes and meetings are tracked through an agreed CRM and reporting rhythm, giving you clarity without having to manage another employee day to day.
