Home › Us vs other managed agencies
Honest comparison
Several good operators in this space. Rather than name them, here is the checklist we would use if we were buying.
| Question to ask | Dialing for Dollars | Any other agency |
|---|---|---|
| Can you see today's dials without asking | Live dashboard, updated through the day | Ask to be shown it before you sign |
| Is a recording attached to every lead | Yes, on all of them, as standard | Ask to see a sample of a delivered lead |
| Is the lead floor written, with a stated remedy | 40 per caller per month, we keep dialing free if it is missed | Ask what happens in writing when it is missed |
| Is qualified defined before you pay | Criteria published and shared before launch | Ask for this in writing before you sign |
| What happens when a caller quits | Free trained replacement within 48 hours | Ask for the replacement timeline in days |
| Do you meet your caller before launch | Yes, always | Ask whether you get to meet or vet the caller |
| Minimum commitment | Month to month with 30 days notice | Ask for the contract length and cancellation terms |
Another managed agency may be the right fit if they specialize in your exact niche, offer a pricing structure that matches your cash flow better, or you already have a working relationship and track record with them. There is no shortage of capable operators in this category, and a good fit often comes down to communication style and reporting preferences as much as the mechanics of the service.
We are the right fit if you want a dedicated caller rather than a shared pool, a written lead floor with a stated remedy, call recordings on every delivered lead, and a month to month commitment rather than a long contract.

Take these questions to every provider you are considering, including us. An agency that answers all of them clearly and in writing is probably worth your money. One that dodges two or more of them will likely cost you a quarter of wasted spend before you find out why.
Ask the same set of concrete questions to every agency you are considering, covering lead guarantees, call recordings, replacement timelines and contract terms. Compare written answers rather than marketing pages, since claims on a website are not the same as commitments in a contract.
A dedicated caller works only on your list and account, while a shared pool rotates multiple clients across the same group of callers. A dedicated caller generally builds more familiarity with your market and script over time.
A long minimum commitment increases your risk if the engagement does not perform. Ask for the cancellation terms and notice period in writing before you sign, and compare it against a month to month option.
This should be defined in writing before you pay anything, not decided after leads start arriving. Ask any agency for their specific qualification criteria and get it in the agreement.
Ask for a specific number of days rather than a vague answer. At Dialing for Dollars a free replacement caller starts within 48 hours, and you should expect a similarly concrete commitment from any agency you consider.
40 qualified seller leads per caller per month, in writing. Dialing in 2 business days. Thirty minute call, no pitch deck.
