What Our Clients Say
We love helping companies grow and expand. We’ve worked with clients over years to help them get succeed and feel confident that they know the leads and meetings will keep flowing in whilst they get on with running the business!
“The ROI we get from using Ringhello is a no brainer. We know they’ll find those opportunities through tenaciously working at calling and researching projects and tenders to get us the best chance to make a sale. That’s all we want, someone we can trust to sniff out those deals we may not have ordinarily found and set us up with all the information we need to know about a prospect & their projects, so we can get technical in the meetings and focus on closing deals in those meetings”
Ray Gordon
managing director
SCENE DOUBLE
“We needed some help identifying leads from software companies and IT developers.
They’re a notoriously tricky bunch to crack. Janine’s breezy and professional style won us some high value leads, some of which we converted into sales.
Did we return on our telemarketing spend? Certainly and by a factor of at least 5. Would I recommend Janine at RingHello? Without hesitation.”
Henry Cazelet
co-founder
the sms works ltd
“It’s very difficult to find a lead generation agency that you can rely on to be agile, trustworthy, & most importantly, passionate about getting results. That’s what we got when we engaged with RingHello. Janine and the team, stepped into the role of our telemarketing team effortlessly and, even with a short 5-day contract, managed to produce some excellent results, and a few high value opportunities for us to close.”

“Janine loves doing one thing I hate – calling prospects. For that, she’s priceless. She understands how to find people, build lists, hold a pipeline of connections and secure meetings. Janine is my sales team. I know I can talk to her any time and provide direction, But as also chat about life and the universe – she really is exceptional on the phone; just the right energy. I’m probably farting around 60% less on LinkedIn because I’m working to turn contacts into connections.”

“JST PreSale Ltd. has used Ring Hello for two very different clients at each end of the UK and on both projects Simon delivered more than a telemarketing service. Rarely found these days in B2B complex sell lead generation – Ringhello were not only tactically and sensitively superior in approaching potential buyers by voice – they also became a trusted advisor in the crafting of the strategic e-marketing & sales strategy at the outset.
We look forward to working with them again very soon.”

Keeping in touch should be simple, not stressful. It should also be free!
We got fed up of being asked to use large clunky CRM systems. So we built a system to call from that’s completely unique and makes it so easy for SMEs to keep their data in one place, with a logical way to call people easily, so you see all you need on one screen and stop fighting with lots of spreadsheets.
We want people to use our system for a year for free!
We teamed up with an amazing developer Plexus Media to enable our sales-focused calling system to be set-up remotely allowing multiple access points.
The Ringhello calling system provides more usability than many CRM systems designed to process sales, because it was built to allow quick and easy call recording, and makes it easy to develop pipelines, and most importantly see what’s going on!
