Virtual SDR vs In-House SDR
Many CEOs and company leaders want to know how a virtual workforce can compare to the results they get with their in-house sales agents. Whether it’s because they’re curious about how this new model works, or how this could help them meet their business needs. Hiring remote employees can be great for your business in ways you might not expect.
On average, how much do they cost?
- Virtual SDR: $14.75 flat = $2360 a month = $28,320 a year
- In-house SDR: $16.00 + benefits + W2s + 1099 + working tools + bonuses = $3,900 a month = $46,800 a year
On average, how long does it take them to commute to work?
- Virtual SDR: Zero.
- In-house SDR: 1 hour getting ready + 45 min drive = 1 hour and 45 minutes.
What tasks can they do for our organization?
- Virtual SDR: Inside Sales, Cold-Calling, Appointment Setting, Emails, SMS, Closing Sales.
- In-house SDR: All of the above and Outside Sales. For almost double the cost.
How is the work environment for them?
- Virtual SDR: The comfort of their own home, with all the equipment they need to perform their tasks.
- In-house SDR: An office or cubicle, sometimes sharing equipment or tools. Many times with co-workers they don’t like or with noise and other issues beyond their control.
Are they motivated?
- Virtual SDR: Talented professionals are now more than ever looking for jobs where they can work from home. The agent will work as much as he or she can to maintain his position. In the case of a virtual workforce with agents working in other countries, earning dollars is a huge factor in their motivation, since it means getting more money when they change it to their local currency.
- In-house SDR: Unless stability and growth are guaranteed, the agent won’t be motivated by more than commissions. And if they live in the United States, the pay won’t mean as much to them as it would in other countries.
The benefits of virtual workforce setups are becoming a common theme. Especially now that companies are finding new and effective ways of lowering overhead costs. Another added plus is the success in building a best-in-class recruitment operation by hiring top-line employees from all over the world with an established virtual workforce company which can find talent far superior to what is available in a crowded and competitive local field.
