  We have recently engaged Blue Donkey as a business and have been really impressed by their communication, knowledge and desire to immerse themselves in the detail required to make our campaign successful. Charlene has done a great job. We have used other businesses in the past and Blue Donkey are head and shoulders above those.

  I worked at Blue Donkey between 2015 - 2018. I begun working here whilst studying for my undergraduate degree. Firstly, owners Sureya and Paul were extremely understanding and supportive of my education and offered flexible working hours whilst studying. I started working part time and on completion of my degree I moved to full time. As this is a family run business, you don’t get made to feel that you’re just a number; they are happy to provide you with flexible working hours if required. Within the job you are responsible for ‘intelligent telemarketing,’ where you are responsible for cold calling and lead generation on behalf of a range of mid to large cap corporate clients across a number of sectors including finance, life sciences, retail, and engineering. This job is not easy, you have to deal with high pressure, targets and rejection from prospects. Although this is telemarketing, these are the basis skills required of a sales role. Within the job you will be responsible for approaching very senior prospects on behalf of your clients including directors, CEOs and COO’s to introduce their products and services. Blue Donkey works with different sized organisations all the way from medium sized enterprises to large listed international organisations and will offer the same level of professionalism to every client. This job gives you the skills to be extremely versatile. Whilst working here I gained the ability to confidently sell over the phone, gather information, market a product with detail and precision, handle rejection, work to targets, handle pressure as well as having exposure to senior and well respected clients and prospects and an insight to a range of different sectors. Sureya had previous experience working in large organisations in London before establishing Blue Donkey, and both herself and Manager Charlene are exceptional at their jobs and whilst working with them I learnt very valuable work skills and sales methods. I made the decision to leave because I wanted to move to London and work on an commission basis. Due to the skills that I gained at Blue Donkey it meant that I was a very attractive candidate for sales and recruitment roles in London because of my experience working in a high intensity job role and the sectors covered. Within 2 years of working in recruitment in London I am earning 6 figures annually and I believe Blue Donkey contributed considerably to my skills, resilience, confidence, knowledge, abilities and my attractiveness as a candidate when I did look to move on. I would highly recommend to anyone studying or looking to pursue a career in sales, marketing or recruitment.

  My first encounter with Blue Donkey was with my last Bank where they provided me high quality leads which I was able to convert successfully. I have since moved to a different Bank (Nationwide Building Society) and I invited them to tender to help support my team with additional telemarketing. I am pleased to say the onboarding and initial pilot has exceeded our expectations and they continue to provide us a consistent flow of high quality leads. They understand our proposition, our target market but most importantly... our culture & way of doing business! We are VERY protective over our brand so we regularly dip test calls as part of our ongoing quality checks and not once have we heard anything to cause us concern. It is important to note they do NOT use a dialler which makes a big difference. Blue Donkey have been a great resource and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them! UPDATE: I have since completed an in-depth review and I am pleased to report the following... Prospecting volumes have over doubled and we've seen a 40% uplift in sales (70% including pipeline) whilst being cost efficient compared to other proactive methods of marketing. Blue Donkey gives us the scalability we need within budget!

  I have always been nervous about Telesales. Blue Donkey has proved me completely wrong. They quickly understood our complex outsource service and opened many doors for us. I received many compliments from prospective clients that I visited about the quality of the initial conversation with my team - not knowing that I had outsourced it!!
