Title: Independent Contractor – CPT-11389 Outbound Appointment Setter – Financial Services/Business Support VA/Entry-Senior Level (Remote).

Overview

20four7VA is seeking offshore independent contractors to deliver remote services to clients worldwide, with a primary focus on developed markets such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.

A team of independent financial advisors is seeking an experienced Outbound Appointment Setter to generate qualified 30-minute Zoom appointments with prospective clients.

The advisors work primarily with educators, government employees, pension-plan participants, and individuals participating in employer-sponsored retirement plans such as 401(k)s. The company maintains an extensive database of prospects and will provide the VA with calling lists, scripts, demographic information, and training.

This is a high-volume, phone-based appointment-setting position. The VA is not responsible for selling financial products, providing financial advice, collecting documents, or closing business. The objective is to engage prospects professionally, handle basic objections, qualify interest, and schedule appointments that have a strong likelihood of being retained.

The objective of each engagement is to assist the client in improving business efficiency, enhancing service delivery, or supporting operational functions through high-quality, task-specific services rendered by a qualified contractor.

Scope of Services

Contractors will be required to provide services that align with the following client tasks:

Outbound Appointment Setting

  • Make high-volume outbound calls using company-provided prospect lists
  • Work within an automated/power dialing system
  • Follow demographic-specific scripts and messaging
  • Introduce the purpose of the financial education or planning consultation
  • Schedule qualified prospects for 30-minute Zoom appointments
  • Book appointments according to advisor calendar availability

Prospect Qualification & Objection Handling

  • Conduct brief qualification conversations before scheduling
  • Determine genuine interest rather than simply booking uncommitted appointments
  • Handle common objections professionally and calmly
  • Adjust conversations naturally while remaining within approved messaging
  • Offer appropriate future appointment times or follow-up opportunities when prospects are initially unavailable
  • Maintain a consultative, non-aggressive phone demeanor

Appointment Quality

  • Focus on generating appointments that are likely to attend
  • Clearly communicate the purpose and value of the scheduled meeting
  • Record relevant information gathered during conversations
  • Maintain accurate appointment details
  • Support confirmation or reminder activity if incorporated into the process in the future

Calling & Activity Management

  • Maintain consistent outbound activity throughout scheduled calling hours
  • Work efficiently through large prospect databases
  • Follow assigned demographic campaigns and calling scripts
  • Track calling outcomes and appointment activity
  • Participate in coaching, mock calls, and ongoing script refinement
  • Re-attempt calls to prospects at different times of day when an initial attempt is unsuccessful
  • Respect prospect requests for no further contact and maintain a non-pestering approach to outbound calling
  • Appropriately redirect detailed technical questions about retirement plans or financial matters to the appropriate financial advisor rather than providing financial advice

Each engagement is based on a defined scope of work and is governed by an independent contractor agreement. Services must be performed professionally, with adherence to any timelines, guidelines, and deliverables agreed upon in writing.

Skills

The Contractor must demonstrate proficiency in the following, depending on the Client’s requirements:

  • Previous cold calling or outbound telemarketing experience required
  • Appointment-setting experience required
  • Power dialer or automated dialing experience strongly preferred
  • Customer service experience preferred
  • Strong objection-handling skills required
  • Excellent spoken English communication required
  • Financial services, insurance, mortgage, banking, retirement, or related industry experience is preferred but not required
  • Ability to learn demographic-specific scripts and basic financial-services terminology
  • Previous experience working with U.S. consumers strongly preferred
  • Experience with unsolicited appointment setting preferred
  • Experience engaging prospects who are reluctant to talk or reluctant to schedule an appointment preferred
  • Ability to maintain consistent positive energy and professionalism despite repeated rejection

IDEAL CANDIDATE PROFILE

  • Experienced and confident outbound caller
  • Calm, pleasant, professional phone demeanor
  • Clear and easily understood spoken English
  • Able to sound conversational rather than simply reading a script
  • Comfortable handling objections without becoming overly aggressive
  • Persistent while remaining respectful
  • Goal-oriented and motivated by appointment-setting performance
  • Coachable and willing to learn the terminology associated with retirement plans and financial services
  • Comfortable working in a high-volume dialing environment
  • Able to quickly recover from rejection and move on to the next call without allowing a negative interaction to affect subsequent calls
  • Able to communicate genuine enthusiasm for the client's service and help prospects understand why the consultation is valuable
  • Comfortable acknowledging the limits of their role and confidently directing technical financial questions to the appropriate advisor
