Our Team
At MVF our clients pay us for sales ready leads. Approximately 500,000 of our leads are telephone or sight qualified which takes place in our Contact Centre. This generates over £12 million gross profit for the business.
Our mission is to deliver world-class customer service, instil trust with our partners and build our brands as authorities in their markets. The Contact Centre is a critical part of MVF process and important as part of our growth.
We optimise our lead qualification process to ensure we are finding the highest quality prospects for our partners and this is one of the reasons why MVF has an impressive client retention rate of 96%.
There are multiple teams within the Contact Centre including
- The B2C Team- they speak to consumers about a variety of products and services, ensuring that a lead is fully qualified and has all of the necessary information required. We have introduced ways that we can become fully embedded in our partners’ sales process so have introduced appointment booking with a number of partners.
- The B2B Team- they call our business prospects, ensuring that leads are fully qualified for our partners and look for opportunities to provide other products or services to provide exceptional prospect experience and generate further revenue for MVF. Our B2B verticals compliment each other, for example we may receive a lead for vehicle tracking and we can then generate and qualify a further lead for fuel cards.
